you'll love their sweet jewelry, all painstakingly but lovingly hand made for you out of resin. You can also check these guys out at the te tuhi markets.

Wooo awesome linkage. I should really get along to more crafty markety stuff. Newtown fair this weekend tho - hopefully there'll be some crafters present there :)
P.S. Dying to hear your news. Will try and be patient.
ah yes I missed most of them -eep! I want those artspace posters!!!!!
Hi! Thanks so much for posting a photo of my stuff! I think the sock monkey lady at this Craftwerk is new - she isn't Yvon who you posted a pic of awhile back (we sometimes share a table).
I really like your blog. I just started one too (I'm hoping mine improves...)
Anyway, thanks again!

Thanks so much for the mention of the NZ Cupcake Queen and for taking the time to take photos of all the other stalls. I think I managed to get around most of them, so many clever crafty people there!

I love that plastic/metalic animal jewelery, my son would want to wear one for sure.
I am very excited to be on the internet again!
Oh and how cool are the native NZ bird broches, yes they're great.

First of all, thank you for having my photo on your blog, that's very nice of you.
I didn't have time to go around on the day to see all the crafts out there, that's a bit shame. But seeing those things on your site, they looked great!I sure won't miss them next time^^
Hi Kimberlee, just found your post about the car bracelets, a bit bloody late of me, I know!
