Kenilworth School Shopping and Craft Evening


 
I have a stall at this event selling my handmade items - lots of lovely gifts for Christmas, so if you're local to Kenilworth then it would be great to see you.

If you see something you are interested in on my blog or facebook page, then let me know and I can bring it along to the event. I'm happy to take orders for Christmas especially if you would like something in a specific colour.

Crochet Christmas Tree Decorations

I’ve been busy crocheting these Christmas Tree decorations to sell at Craft fairs or to whoever wants one!


Christmas Tree Hanging

Christmas tree decoration available as single or a pair

They are made with Patons 4ply Cotton yarn using my own tried and tested design. The single tree decorations are approx. 15cm in height. Each hanging consists of 5 trees and measures approx. 67cm including the hanging ring. I can crochet a tree in about 40 minutes, so I reckon each hanging takes a good 3 hours to make. The beads are threaded on first and are incorporated into the design as I crochet. I’m selling the hangings at £8.75 – bargain for the time they take but I enjoy making. The single tree decorations I’ve been selling at £1.85 for a single tree or £3.50 for a pair.

Having made a few in traditional Christmas colours I thought people would probably have other favourite colours or want them to match their décor or alternative Christmas colour themes. I’m always happy to take orders for specific colours.

Look out on my blog or Facebook page for the Craft fairs I’ll be attending this year or contact me if you are interested in any of my items.

I buy my yarn from www.purplelindacrafts.co.uk as they have a good selection of colours at a reasonable price.
