Summer has arrived early, bringing with it the return of wonderful markets across the country! As a maker of unique fabric jewellery, I’m thrilled to share my summer market schedule with you – including one exciting new location.

This week, I’m delighted to be a featured stallholder on Pedddle, a platform I’ve been part of since lockdown began in 2020. It proved invaluable for connecting with customers through virtual markets during those challenging times.

Discovering Pedddle: Your Gateway to Independent Makers

If you love handmade jewellery and supporting small businesses, Pedddle is a brilliant resource. This website connects independent makers with market enthusiasts, making it effortless to discover local events and talented artisans in one convenient place.

My Pedddle page serves as a mini showcase where I share upcoming market dates and display my colourful jewellery collections. It’s perfect for staying updated on where you can find my statement pieces and unique accessories in person!

Being part of Pedddle has transformed how I connect with customers as a small business owner. It provides a dedicated space to announce which markets I’ll be trading at, making it simple for jewellery lovers to plan visits. Think of it as my digital shop window – a place where you can browse my creations and plan your next craft market adventure.

Summer Market Dates: Where to Find My Fabric Jewellery

BIG Truro Market – Saturday 12th July, 9am-4pm

My first summer showcase takes place at this fantastic market on Lemon Quay, alongside Truro Farmers Market. After three years of trading here, I can confidently say it offers an incredible atmosphere. With over 60 talented local makers, designers, and creators, it’s the perfect destination for unique gifts or special treats for yourself.

If you head to their website Cornwall Shop Small, you’ll also find the online version of both the BIG Truro and the BIG Newquay markets! Plus there’s the Directory which is split into different categories, such as ceramics & pots, body & wellbeing and Jewellery & keepsakes (where I’m listed!).

Truro Cathedral Artisan Market – Saturday 2nd August, 10am-5pm

After a brief hiatus, I’m returning to the stunning surroundings of Truro Cathedral! This market brings together over 50 makers in one of Cornwall’s most beautiful venues. If you’re seeking handcrafted accessories or one-of-a-kind jewellery, this is an unmissable opportunity.

Marazion Artisan Market – 6th-7th August, 10am-4pm (NEW LOCATION!)

I’m excited to debut at this amazing (new to me!) venue at All Saints Church Hall in the centre of Marazion.

Running every Wednesday and Thursday from April to September, this market combines locally handmade gifts AND a delicious café. With St Michael’s Mount nearby, Marazion offers the perfect day out combining shopping and sightseeing.

These markets will be YOUR chance to see my fabric jewellery up close and in person. Many customers have sent me lovely reviews of my jewellery and they all say it’s even better in person when they open their purchase!
