What a lovely day!

The sun was shining, the friends kept coming and the Artists and Artisans are all extremely talented and lovely people. We had a wonderful day in the We Made It! store. Signing-in Artists, meeting new ones and watching the first ones set up their wares in preparation for the big opening next Tuesday! Painting furniture, handling paperwork, choosing spaces, chatting and generally getting on with it! To all of you out there with paperwork, still thinking things over, please remember that you can hire space from as little as 1', so if you are new to the handmade/home-made profession, want to dip your toes in and give it a try, your maximum outlay for two weeks is as little as £30 for twelve days trade! Yes £2.50 per day for 1' of shelf space in the We Made It! store.
Do come in tomorrow, Saturday, or Sunday as these are the sign-in and set-up days remaining. We will be closed on Monday and open to the public on Tuesday at 10am.

Sleep tight all and wherever you are we hope the sun is shining.

Super Sign-in day!

To all of you who visited the We Made It! store in Canterbury today, Artisans, friends, locals and tourists we say a huge thank you. The sun was shining and everyone was wonderful. Thank you to Liz from Arts & Culture at Canterbury City Council for taking the time to come and meet with us too, it was lovely to meet you. We are still signing in Artists and Artisans and will be stocking spaces this week ahead of opening next Tuesday 16th July 2013.
We have had such a positive reaction to our holistic support model for Artisans, from the business community and those in creative fields, that we feel extremely grateful and humbled. The business world, especially for small independents works when we support each other, so lets keep doing just that. Holding each other up and working as a community, especially in these stark economic times.
Here are some snaps from today, do keep those jungle drums beating and spread the word of We Made It! to All your creative friends.
Selection of wares.

Do come along and see what all the chat is about. If you are an Artist/Artisan come and see what is on offer for you and if you love home-made/handmade this is the place to buy! We look forward to seeing you all and to opening our doors next Tuesday.
This is one tired Artisan wishing you all a goodnight.
