Handmade Halloween

The October fair at Handmade at Ilkley has a hallowe'en theme as we will be giving away black and orange balloons to any child who crosses our path (and adults too). 

We have a great selection of artists and makers with lots of new people joining some of our favourites. Who's who?

Swirly Arts and Roger's Ink are representing paper with Sid Barlow and Wicked Gen bringing the glass. Classic jewellery comes courtesy of Olinda Jewellery and Petit Bijoux.
