Bonfire night.... and thinking about Christmas

It seems that an unfortunate consequence of being crafty makers of the type we are is having to start thinking about christmas WAY TOO EARLY.
Today is 5 November, bonfire night, yet we've already been creating charts to try and make sure we're well stocked for Christmas, discussing with our pals at Much Too Fun the plans for a Hidden Lane pop-up shop, and generally thinking christmassy thoughts. Well, we do like Christmas.

No doubt more to follow on the pop-up shop news, but in essence, Mhairi of Much Too Fun has got together a great bunch of designer/makers, and the shop will be running from 18 Nov from Mucky Puddle in the Hidden Lane, including late nights on Thursdays.

In the meantime though, I'm going to enjoy some Parkin and fireworks, and cross my fingers that the rain holds off.

The Gin Palace pop-up exhibition/sale

Finch & Fouracre are pleased to be participating in the next Gin Palace pop-up event, right here in Glasgow. The event will take place on the weekend of 9-11 April, on South Frederick St, just off George Sq. It will feature a bunch (nearly 40!) designers from Glasgow and further afield, showcasing a range of different types of design - fashion, jewellry, furniture, and (of course) models. You can read more about it at their blog and hopefully come along to the event too!
