ETSY MADE LOCAL - MANCHESTER 2018
Welcome to Etsy Manchester’s 3rd Annual Etsy Made Local Christmas Market!
Etsy Manchester’s Etsy Made Local event showcases some of the best talent from the Etsy Manchester Team. This weekend, you’ll meet over forty designer-makers, artisans and vintage curators from around Greater Manchester. Every year, our event coincides with Small Business Saturday UK. We’re proud to give our visitors an opportunity to see what a small or micro business-owner looks like in real life, find beautiful, original handmade and vintage pieces, and learn more about the inspiration for their work. So, who are the Etsy Manchester Team? We are a collective of over 1500 designer-makers and artisans, who use the Etsy platform to sell our products. Etsy Manchester (aka EtsyMCR) is entirely volunteer-run, formed by engaged creatives who want to connect with other makers in our communities to share information about running a business, get advice from experienced entrepreneurs, or gather offline for fun and friendship. Do you know about Etsy? Etsy is a global marketplace where shoppers can browse more than 20 million creative items, ranging from art to furniture to vintage fashion, and everything in between! Etsy is the leading online destination for artists; it empowers them to do what they love, to sell their handmade and vintage products, and for buyers to purchase that special, one-of-a-kind item. Since the team was founded in 2010, many EtsyMCR sellers have grown their businesses, supported both online and in real life by our members. Some of our makers are now moving into studios, getting wholesale orders and have their products stocked in locations all over the city (take a peek at the list at the end of this booklet to find out more). Please support our makers this weekend by talking to them about their work. Take business cards, share their shops on social media and tell your friends! Everything helps the community, whether it’s buying quirky stocking-fillers or cards, having your own piece commissioned, or just getting the word out about the amazing creatives we have in our team, your support helps to grow local small businesses, and in turn, the local economy. We wish you a wonderful weekend, and a very Merry Craftmas! PAGE 1

I’m an independent upholsterer with a love of yoga who saw the need to make beautiful and practical locally sourced buckwheat bolsters. I wanted to add a personal touch to your personal yoga practice in an ethically sourced and inspiring way. These bolsters support you in yoga, pranayama, relaxation, meditation or just to aid comfort. My bolsters are often made to order for yoga studios. I am inspired to use natural cotton and linen fabrics using new and exciting designs and colours for you. The bolsters are washable on a cool cycle and have a calico inner filled with locally sourced (Lancashire) buckwheat husks. Inners and outer can be bought separately so you can change your bolsters look effortlessly. The buckwheat husks give great support and can be moved inside the bolster during your practice to mould around your body. Great for gifts for all yogis, all ages, new to yoga/meditation and well practiced gurus. Lolalovesyoga handmakes each yoga bolster especially for you with love.

I have a studio in Manchester where I design and make everything by hand with excitement and slight OCD. My objects are inspired by things I see and love whilst exploring in everyday life, which I then transform into geometrical forms. I create each form, make a master former, silicone mould the shape and then mix the jesmonite and pigment to make unusual, irregular colours and marbled patterns.

Much of the inspiration for my prints comes from exploring the flora and fauna of our British countryside. The plants that grow on my balcony garden in central Manchester and the wildlife they attract also have a big influence on my work. My prints often start with sketched ideas, which I then develop using lots of different disciplines including hand drawn illustrations, painting and traditional techniques such as lino printing. Once my designs are ready I work them into repeat patterns digitally for a range of printed home textiles, gifts and stationery.

Hello! I’m Natasha, a freelance surface pattern designer based in my home studio up in Glossop. I create fun and unique hand drawn and painted designs which are then digitally worked up into patterns and prints. I apply my designs onto a range of products that have all been handmade by myself (yep, I don’t sleep!). Items include cards, stickers, art prints, bags, notebooks and other small gifts. I am open to commissions and I also design wedding stationery which I am happy to discuss. If you are interested in the fabric designs, a small selection of them can be ordered by the metre so feel free to ask for more information, I am friendly!

Deliciously scented eco-friendly vegan candles, made lovingly by a specialist in scent. The Wilton Street Craft Co. is a Manchester based purveyor of beautifully handcrafted vegan candles, led by Emma and her trusty sausage dog, Lady. We do candles differently. We give you unique scents. We believe in high quality. We only use ethically sourced ingredients. We value the environment. We take care of ‘me time’. We also just happen to be vegan. All our candles are hand poured in small batches of 9-10, everything from wicking, to pouring, to labelling is done with the utmost attention, care and love; with Lady providing quality assurance. As specialists in scent we do all the blending ourselves using only essential oils. We take inspiration from the world around us, favourite drinks, amazing travels, nature and favourite, nostalgic smells. You’ll find all our packaging is made from recycled paper and is recyclable, even our glass jars can be washed out and repurposed. Using soy wax, essential oils, cotton wicks and absolutely no additives we can give you a candle suitable for vegans and everyone else who shares our values.
