Handmade Redcliffe Launches

11/7/2013

Anticipation around Handmade Redcliffe was strong, we ran a Creative RSVP competition via our Events page on Facebook. 

There were three entries that really stood out.....
"Memories come and memories go
this memory stays from long ago
this little hall by the sea
where Handmade Redcliffe is to be.

Music, food and craft and art 
made with care by hands and heart
Come one, come all and don't be late
July the 6th ....it's a date!"

Seriously beautiful words by Gwen Berry, one of our buskers. Love.

Creative RSVP winner Bekk Delaine and gorgeous Pollyanna. Seriously how much work went into that? 

"I LOVE HANDMADE REDCLIFFE, RSVP Mummy & Me"! 

Bekk showed us how much she supported us by putting this together. Deserved winner! Here she is with her little munchkin.....

Creative RSVP winner #2 (because we couldn't decide on just one) Melinda Jane Walker - so excited about Handmade Redcliffe since its inception earlier in the year wrote this....

"I'm really looking forward to a day full of fun,
And I can't wait to share it with my dear mum!
Handmade Redcliffe thank you so much,
All the lovely goodies I can't wait to touch!
With just over 2 weeks to go,
I know the time is going to go slow!
But patience I must bear,
Can't wait to see you all there!!!"

We loved meeting Melinda and her Mum, proudly awarding her with a prize pack, which included, a copy of the latest Bespoke magazine , candle melt from Monoi Creations, vouchers from Pappiyon and Harry High Pants, pendant by Pixie Mik, card and link to pattern by Very Debra and $10.00 of market money.

SO THE DAY ARRIVED and what a magic day it was, the heavens were shining down on us I think! The weather was just perfect. We worked hard to get the word out, which paid off with so many locals and visitors coming down to support Handmade Redcliffe!

The ribbon was cut by the Hon Yvette D'Ath MP and goodie bags were given to our first visitors (and there were many of you)! We could not of thought of a more perfect person to open our market. And THANK YOU to everyone that came to enjoy the handmade wonderland we created for you!

My favourite, Mabel Jane was there, aren't these the most perfect looking cakes of soap? I adore the soft colours they design around but more importantly the products are so gentle on sensitive skin. My go to is the goats milk with red clay soap. And of course the scent is just as heavenly too.

This photo I just love! What a pampered pooch and happy patron of the market. Captures the day really!

Well it seems I'm not the only one with a sweet tooth, with The Chocolate Cakery selling out of their gourmet cupcakes and biscuits.

Well a picture paints a thousand words as they say, so I will leave you with this gallery of photos taken by my friend and colleague Marie from Ruby & Rose Interiors.
