Planning for 2013's show - HERE WE COME!

Plans for our 2013 show are well under way and I can't wait to share how our "HOMEGROWN" is going to be "GROWING"!  I am feeling such a huge sense of pride in our city and all the creative people that I get to meet and collaborate with and it is welling up into a big ball of energy that is being channeled into a number of great things - one of them being the fair of course!!

So, I invite you to join me on this journey and come behind the scenes of this event that will celebrate our wonderful city, it's awesome people and our passion for local design, craft, food and cool living...

It's the weekend BABY!

MOOI Lemonade is serving it up fresh on the weekends... their Homemade (hand squeezed nogal!) lemonade is refreshment in a glass.  Come and meet Dion and Fi, such a lovely couple and taste the real deal.

Also with us just on the weekends are Sue and Christine from Essential Herbal Products. These ladies are very knowledgeable and have an extensive range of herbal teas and herbal products such as their lip balms, just what you need for those dry winter lips!

Bright Sparks!

If your winter garden is looking a little drab then make sure to visit Glasshopper's!  One of their lovely garden mosaics or bird baths will add instant colour! 

Neat Freak has solutions for home and office organization sorted! This nifty product can keep your keys, wallet and post in one handy place!

R 225 - comes in Natural (above) and dark brown.

Bright and Beautiful!

Our theme "all things bright and beautiful" is perfectly captured by Mninizo Trading and Decadent Deserts.

Thank you for interpreting our theme in such a wonderful way!

These amazing works of art are priced from as little as R 35!

Hello Dolly!

Dolly's Curry Den is one of our most popular stands in The Food Market!  I have been told by my Indian friends that it is just like a home cooked meal!  All her food is freshly prepared daily!  I have tasted her Kebab(spicy meatballs in tomato based sauce) with Roti and I am hooked.  

Finally....

It's showtime!!

Just look out for the large red felt hearts and you've found us!

  Here are some snapshots of our amazing fair.  Thank you to all our exhibitors for going all out this year to impress and showcase their incredible talent!  Take a look at some of our bright and shining stars....
