Manchester Craft Mafia xmas markets

Manchester Craft Mafia xmas markets, originally uploaded by ladyfort.

It's that time of year again, isn't it? For us makers, it's craft market mayhem and for the buyers it's handmade goody buying. The only difficult thing is making sure you part with the wonders you pick up for presents! This is the 2nd year of the Manchester Craft Mafia's Christmas Market this time with a new venue. Much as I'd love to attend I don't think I should stray quite so far from the maternity ward on my due date ; )

Last year was superb though and rather successful for me. Of course, I don't live in Manchester now but that hopefully won't stop me next year. If you're in the vicinity over the weekend make sure you stop by and have a good gander. There's bound to be some unique gift buying going on and certainly an air of the fabulous about it all. I'm quite envious : )
