Why Do You Love Craft Festival

April 25, 2024

W H Y D O Y O U L O V E C R A F T F E S T I V A L? ⁠
A little while back, we asked you why you love Craft Festival and we received some lovely messages. Thank you so much. A tear or two may have been shed. ⁠
⁠
Here are the thoughs of the lovely Liz Barlett, who has been a long-time supporter. ⁠
⁠
“It was love at first sight for me! I first went in 2009 with my daughter who was literally 3 months old. I expected to be there for an hour max, how wrong could I be. Sarah was actually closing the gates as I realised I had been there for over 5 hours. ⁠
⁠
Fast forward 14 years, I have it on my calendar and I am on count down. My diary is blocked out so that I can just enjoy the 3 magical days.⁠
⁠
I think that these amazing makers are unsung heroes. Their dedication to their craft is humbling and I truly marvel at their creativity, style, talent and dedication. I love Craft Festival, it’s my favourite event in a year-long calendar. May it continue FOREVER!” ⁠
⁠
Thanks Millions Liz ❤️ ⁠
