Stonham Barns Park, in Stonham Aspal, welcomes craftiness with first Autumn Craft Market

Creative vibes were in abundance as hundreds attended a popular venue’s second craft market.

Stonham Barns Park, in Stonham Apsal, hosted a two-day Autumn Craft Market on the site after the success of a similar event at Easter.

Crafters from all over the East of England came and sold their wares to hundreds of visitors.

Janice Rowles, from Stonham Barns Park, said: “Stonham Barns Park is known for its antiques and craft fairs and this one brought together another set of high-quality crafting businesses who were keen to show their hand-made items to a new audience.

“These events draw visitors to the venue and they can browse the products on offer at the stands and also at the artisan retail village outlets.

“It’s certainly a different prospect to shopping in the high street and one that seems to be growing in popularity. We are happy to be championing these highly creative, original and inspired entrepreneurs.”

As well as stalls, there were also make-your-own-crafts areas with pottery demonstrations and a chance to paint your own pottery while the event also welcomed YouTuber Corrine Bradd, from Crafts Beautiful magazine, who did live sewing and quilting demonstrations for the crowds.

The weekend also provided visitors with the opportunity to take a look around the 40 shops open in the site’s retail village.
