we are handmade return to the picturesque and historic village of Coggeshall for our annual ‘early bird’ Christmas Craft Fair. There will be 30 craft stalls and with many makers taking commissions this a great time to order bespoke presents in good time for Christmas.

The Fair has a range of quality handmade crafts to suit all pockets. Stallholders include Capricorn Crafts, makers of wooden toys & gifts; Peter Deans Ceramics; Hawkwood Creations Jewellery; glass by the Little Lime Design Company; Chapel Soaps and wreaths, decorations and pot pourri from Mary James.

Cathy Russell, a member of the Quilling Guild, will be demonstrating the art of quilling (using strips of paper to create intricate designs).

Please note that not all stallholders take card payments and so it is advisable to bring along some cash to the fairs.

A Tearoom will be operating on the day so visitors can sit down and enjoy some delicious homemade cakes with a cup of tea. Cakes have been provided by Lottie & Jakes Cakes.

Covid – we are advising visitors to our fairs to check our website/social media pages before an event as any notices relating to changes in restrictions/cancellations will be posted here.
