Crafter’s Companion set to host specialist craft fair

LEADING craft company, Crafter’s Companion will be hosting a specialist craft fair at its Chesterfield store to give local talent the opportunity to showcase their work.

This weekend, the store will give local crafters, artists and designers the opportunity to sell their handmade wares from its store at Dobbies Chesterfield Garden Centre and Shopping Village.

From 10am until 4pm on Saturday and 11am until 4pm on Sunday, visitors will be able to browse and buy from a range of specialist craft stalls including, handmade cards, turned-wood gifts and sewn homewares.

Sarah Elliott, store manager at Crafter’s Companion Chesterfield, said: “We’re really looking forward to our craft fair, there will be some fantastic crafters and artists on show and we’re really looking forward to sharing their amazing talent with the local community in Chesterfield.

“As a company, we’re always looking for ways to engage with and contribute to the local community, so it’s great to be able to give local talent an opportunity to display their work to a larger retail audience that they would not ordinarily be able to reach.”

Crafter’s Companion is a leading craft supplies company which sells its products globally online, on TV shopping channels, via independent retailers and in its own UK retail stores in Chesterfield and Newton Aycliffe.

Crafter’s Companion’s Chesterfield store opened in September 2016 and includes themed shopping areas, a central hub for workshops and two dedicated demonstration areas.
