So what's going on at this Market then?

Mollyqueen's Marvellous Market - Artist Breakdown

Dont forget we've changed Venue!

We will now be @ The Federation House Social Club
on Claremont Road (which is off Hucknall Road and Nottingham Road)
Sunday 7th August 11am - 4pm

There is a huge carpark and there are buses that run up Hucknall Road and Nottingham Road. (any of the 'brown line' outside Waitrose and 'Yellow line' outside TKMaxx in town)

For those of you that have never been to a Marvellous Market before, here is a bit of information and a list of Stallholders and their particular talents. The Market is Marvellous because not only is it full of local artists, crafters, makers and shakers it is mixed up with community Art projects, Live music, events, activities and theres plenty to see and do. The Underground bakery is our main attraction and for this market will be featuring an actual sit-down, cafe style menu. The New Venue is a lot bigger than Hotel Deux and we have the benefit of a hidden garden at the back of the building (you can access this side too! From Ebury Road) so if you dont fancy sitting infront of the stage and warming your ears to a spot of live, local music then you can wander on outside and soak up some sun. (hopefully!)

Anyway, enough jabber jabber, here's the breakdown! As we book more artists i will be adding to this, if i've missed you out send me a nudge to themollyqueen@googlemail.com or poke me on facebook..... ;)

The UnderGround Bakery Cafe
The Underground bakery is looking forward to having more space to play around with at this new venue. Not only will they be there with the normal range of delectable savoury and sweet treats, but there'll be a cafe-style, sit down menu on offer as well as a chance to stock up on your freshly made, home baked breads. For those of you that attended the secret Tea party in Sherwood, you'll have had a taste of whats in store; for those that havent.... i hope i've tenderly tickled your taste buds.

Live Music

Drum roll please......... We have the amazingly talented and wonderful musical genius that is WILL JEFFERY performing on the day, with a little help from his friend LOUIS SCOTT.

Artists


Ali Bee - Textiles Designer of pure brilliance and creativity. Her creations have real character and really make an impression. Beautifully thought out, made and  sewn with real skill and talent, Ali's stall will leave you wishing you'd learnt how to sew and had stayed on for Art at school.

Laura Stephenson - I think I said too many nice things about this lady before, so i'll tone it down this time. Laura is a very talented painter and always has a beautiful stall full of her range of work including gorgeous little home-sewn gifts, bags and purses, prints, vintage knick knacks and little pretty things.

Get Sneaky - Ok, I met this lady at an event a few weeks ago and was blown away by the range of creative items she had on her stall, and how it was displayed! She's obviously a genius, the ethos is all about recyling old, unused and unwanted items into glorious, beautiful and wanted items. This website really deserves a good look! Sneak over here.

Jess Hayes Gill - A fantastical designer lady, Jess will be there with her amazing range of tea towels and prints.

Corrina Rothwell - anyone who is planning to attend Sherwood Secret Garden Craft Fair will have noticed Corrina's amazing illustration as she designed the flyers! With a fab range of greetings cards, prints and more, she'll be there filling our faces with her hilarious sense of humour and super style. Check out her website here.

Christine and Betsy's Wares - This mother-daughter team have been busy building up a beautiful stock of vintage knick knacks, clothing and artwork. With an eye for beauty and not enough room at home to keep everything, their stall is always worth a good old rummage. You'll leave feeling as though you've just fallen out of a back street shop on portobello. She used to live in London dontcha know.

Emma's WoodShop - Literally, a genius with wood, this super lady personalises, renovates and makes hand crafted wooden letters, furniture, frames and anything you can think of in wood. We're very excited for Emma's debut stall.

Bees make Honey - They do you know, and as we know that bees make honey, we also know that this fabulous lady makes beautiful hand made, home sewn bags, purses and other exquisite items. That bloke of hers is quite talented too! Ask about the perfectly designed craft table and display tables she uses to showcase her wares.

Rosa's Ribbons - Shabby Chic inspired Gifts. This website seriously deserves a look-see. Tie a ribbon round your 'mouse' finger here.

MollyQueen Decoupage - We're back with our usual range of creative nonsense but this time we have gone for more of a display of our furniture and customisation service. We have also branched out a bit into other directions, including paper art, cards and prints. Come take a look see!

The Occasional Cupcake - For that sweet tooth of yours, or your boyfriends, or your childrens, mum's grandma's etc. the Occasional cupcake will be there providing her usual, amazing range of sweet treats and all things sweet for you to enjoy on the day or take home for a nibble on later. Does commissions too. Dont forget to ask her for a card!#

Ruth and Franble's Colourful Creations - Two colourful creatives are coming to showcase their wares. Pictures and Prints to textiles and cushions.


Sam's Jams - A firm favourite of ours, Sam will be back with her tasty range of home made jams and marmalades along with her new range of soaptastic goodies! A crafting genius, this lady will leave you wanting to run home and run the bath (and stick some bread in the toaster).

Yarn Loft - Exactly what it says on the tin, A supplier of all crafters... The Yarn Loft will be there with her beautiful and inspirational range of materials and yarn's to send anyone home with a cunning craft idea (and hopefully the motivation to follow it through!)
