Meet the Makers and Plan your visit to Cheltenham
With just 3 weeks until we welcome you to Craft Festival, Cheltenham we chat with Nicola Brain, Retail Manager at Toast in Cheltenham. We asked her to cast her extremely discerning eye across our makers and here are her 5 favourites. You can meet all these 5 makers and all 100 at Cheltenham Town Hall from March 20-22.
I really love the glass and wood, beautiful simple functional pieces, I also like how the wood looks charred.
I like the texture, I also like liked the combination of the glaze with the natural stone finish.
I am always drawn to good leather items weather its belts, clothing or in this case bicycle saddle bags the colour range was gorgeous the brass fastenings really gave it a high-end finish.
The work involved with weaving is huge, I particularly loved her attention to detail and her colour palette which sat beautifully with the environment
The colours and shape of her jewellery are striking, I also like that the colour is just as striking on the reverse. Angelina can be found in the StartUP section of Craft Festival Cheltenham
