National Craft and Design Fair

Hi all,

Well, I went to the RDS on my day off, and survived a day of shopping to report back to you.  The event is massive - with crafts that span the spectrum, and something for every budget, just like they say in the ad.  There's some food, but I'd recommend packing a lunch if you plan to go for the day.  This is an excellent opportunity to do some price comparison shopping, and to find a couple of competitors for your analysis.  It's also a great opportunity to meet the makers for a chat, and to check out how they display their wares.  Be sure not to miss this years' Craft Council winners.  In sum, I highly recommend a day at the National Craft Fair!

In other news, and as I'm sure many of you have heard, the Graphics students will be joining us this year!  It'll be great to have some extra support, and to hang out with some of the students you'll be sharing your End of Year Show with.  More to follow....see you Monday!   Be sure to bring your work to date, along with any additional packaging/labeling ideas you have.
