Cronulla A Hit With The Locals...

Allies Attic had a successful launch in the Sutherland Shire showcasing a large selection of local handmade designers. Local support come far and wide to have a look see at all of our talented designers who also happen to be mums!

Indoors and air conditioned we also had a wonderful craft area for the kids to play whilst mummies shopped. With so many new designers on board I couldn't help myself but to purchase some fantastic items I had been eying off for awhile now on blogs.. (shhhh I must remember to hide that bank statement).

We'll be back in Cronulla in May but in the meantime you can find us at our Mosman Location Easter Long Weekend. Magic in Fairyland will be making a Special Easter Fairy visit and of course there will be a Easter Craft Area. Only two weeks to go until Allies Mosman which also happens to fall on the same day as the monthly Mosman Markets!

ALLIES ATTIC EASTER LONG WEEKEND

We're Packing Our Bags & Visiting Handmade In Canberra...

Now normally one would no actively advertise a fellow competitor but here at Allie's Attic we believe in collaborative power and we're packing our bags and heading to Canberra to visit Handmade Market this weekend. For those of you who haven't heard of Handmade Market, they bring together talented artists, designers, stylists, craftspeople and gourmets all under one destination. All in all - its a lovely day out and I'm sure to find something special there.

Now I'm a little nervous and alot excited about this weekends adventure out... My mother has offered to look after Little Izac and whilst she couldn't be happier I'm sad he won't be with us. Of course I'd like my parents to spend the extended time with him and am sure he'll be fine, I think its more me who won't cope..

The excited part of me says it will be fine and give me time to focus on all things lovely at Handmade.. ohhh and of course get to have a sleep in (oohhh how I miss this).. I've also organised for my husband to have a massage on Sat morning whilst I'm at Handmade and have booked in to hire bikes and ride around the lake on Sunday morning.. very adventure bound of me considering I haven't been on a bike since I was a wee little girl.. LOL.. stay tuned for the post about this one saying I rode into a tree!

Handmade here we come.. and in the meantime checkout Handmade's site
