BrisStyle Indie Designers Market (BIDM) Update - 4 weeks to go!!

With only 4 weeks left until the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market (BIDM) things are really starting to heat up!


This week, we're starting off our tour or all things BIDM by paying a visit to Suzanne, Marie and Melissa of The Seamstress and the Daughters. Marie has been sewing up a storm making cute little skirts and boys shorts while Melissa has been busy whipping up hats, bibs, toys and cars. Suzanne's been getting out the sticks and crocheting "Teapot Hats".




Next up we're visiting Melissa of Taybian. Melissa has been expanding her popular current collection to include other accessories, as well as designing a new Summer Satchel & Accessories collection. This will include matching belts, purses and clutches. You can check it all out here.

Next stop is Flight Industries. Sally has had a big day in the studio revelling in printing. There's reprints of favourite card designs and new designs in store.... and that's not all! To celebrate the enthusiastic feedback Sally's Ibi tote design received, she's designed and printed an Ibis and Scrub Turkey print.


(Christmas skirts by Tutus and Muddy Shoes)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Tutus and Muddy Shoes craft room this week! Anneliese has been working on Christmas dresses, skirts and bloomers. You can check it out here.


Sarah from Designs of the Heart has been busy making Clothespin magnets and small magnets with sweet sayings. You can see more of them here.

There's plenty of wrinkly fingers and elbow grease forecast for the next few weeks at SM Boutique. Sandrine has lots of felting in process with some accessories for you and some new items for your home. Sandrine's amazing silk tops can be pre-ordered now to be ready in time for Christmas. Just pick a design and colour (details here) and let Sandrine's magic do the rest!

It's sweatshop central in the shellyberelli craft den (aka the dining table).

You can see more of the range here.

Am I excited? You bet. My only problem is to find someone to mind my stall while I go Christmas shopping!

Yep I've got the same problem Robyn! So exciting to see so much new stock!

Ali said...

another great post of things to add to my BiDM wish list ... maybe we should call in some special 'stall-minders' so we all can go off and do our shopping!!

Jetta's Nest said...

I definately think we need 'stall minders'...or we're going to need to do special preview markets just for us :D

Wow those stall setups look amazing! I agree Helen, shop online prior to BiDM is a great idea.

Wow, what an impressive collection of products!! I particularly love Suzanne's teapot hat, Taybian's satchels and last but not least Sally's fantastic Urban Avine print!
