Some Irish Craftiness

Image
As well as selling some stuff yesterday, I also did a bit of Christmas shopping.  Doing my bit to shop local and support Irish artisans. First up is a lovely table mat by Louise Hillary of Stone Weavers (no website yet, but you can email stoneweavers@gmail.com for enquires).  They're basically just flat stones on a carpet base but they look so good.  They'd probably be a bit heavy for posting overseas but if you're in Ireland do look her up. Next up is a little pram toy by Sarah, of Sweensie .  I actually know her from knitting in Celbridge.  She has an Etsy shop with some box bags, snack bags and mug cozies.  Perfect for Christmas pressies! Last up is a gorgeous little glass ornament by Ruth Galvin (no dedicated website but you can see her profile on the Craft Council of Ireland's website )  Her pieces are beautiful and this little angel will be hanging up all year round, not just for Christmas.
