Remember Movember

November is the month for the charity Movember when men all over the world grow their moustaches to raise funds and awareness for men's cancer. I was contacted last month by a fund raiser in the Netherlands, Lilly Lam. She is supporting the charity by opening a shop to raise funds. The moutache market bag I printed caught her eye as the perfect purchase for women to support the charity. I printed up some more bags and sent them to Amsterdam (I do hope they have arrived safely!). So encourage the men in your life to hone their hairy upper lip! I'm told it's very fashionable.

Stour Space Designer's Market

We finally made it to the craft market! First one ever and the weather was lovely. Stour Space is in a back street in Hackney Wick, although it looks like a an industrial estate, I was told that lots of the warehouses are flats. This was bourne out by the number of people who walk to the cafe for breakfast. It has a great atmosphere, buzzy and yet very relaxed.

The market was smallish about 15 stalls with a good variety of makers. For a few it was also their first market.
