7 Weeks until Craft Festival Cardiff
On a recent trip to Cardigan, we caught up with Craft Festival Cardiff exhibitor Peter Bodenham. Peter is based at St Dogmaels Pottery, across the river from Cardigan and it will be his first time exhibiting with us.
Home Town Hiraeth
If you've not been to Cardigan, it really is worth a visit. If you enjoy beautiful beaches, amazing food and love some serious heritage action, we highly recommend a visit. Sarah, (Festival director) is from Cardigan and she does bang on about it rather a lot and when she visits it gives her the chance to use the language skills she's be reacqainted with studying with Say Something in Welsh (Enter our Comp below)
NB. Hiraeth: is a Welsh concept of longing for home...
During our trip to Cardigan, we also caught up with Suzi Park from Make it in Wales.

Say Something in Welsh!
This is a fresh new approach to learning Welsh, and it’s quite simply brilliant! And we should know as our director, Sarah James is currently enjoying the course herself.
Have you seen other people learn Welsh successfully? Do you feel that you just don’t have the time to become a Welsh speaker? Are you worried about making mistakes and does that put you off learning Welsh?
SaySomethinginWelsh will ensure you are not learning in isolation but will provide you with all the friendship and encouragement you need to stay motivated.
We have been given a flagship Saysomethingin course to give away to one lucky entrant. CLICK HERE TO ENTER OUR COMPETITION
