Musings from a Scottish maker of wooden art and other things
Next on my calendar of events (and my first of the season as HooperHart) is the Rottal Pop Up Event & Makers Market this Saturday, October 8th. The setting is the beautiful Rottal Estate in Glen Clova, Angus.
As well as a host of fantastic local makers, there will be food and drink available all day, entry is free and dogs are welcome, so it would make a great day out! I’ll be bringing along some brand new pieces too so pop along between 10-4!
Hello again! I just wanted to do a quick post to say how grateful I am for all the sales I’ve had recently, which have helped contribute £102 towards buying PPE for frontline workers in Scotland. The Masks For Scotland crowdfunder has exceeded its £200,000 so that’s fantastic news.
I have another little bit of fundraising to tell you about: Makers for Maggie’s run design, art and craft fairs in aid of Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centre in Dundee, and from May 9th-24th they are running a raffle with prizes from some very talented makers and small businesses (including myself in my guise of Rudy and the Rowan Tree) – you can buy a ticket (only £2) here (just remember to leave your email address when purchasing a ticket).
And then on the weekend of May 16th & 17th there will be an online market on the Makers for Maggie’s Facebook and Instagram pages 9am – 8pm. I’ll be selling some of my little houses with a percentage of sales going to the Maggie’s Centre in Dundee, so please have a look – it’s a great way to treat yourself and not feel guilty about it!
Thanks for reading and stay safe x
