Thank you so so much to all the wonderful, talented, generous and exciting artisans who have decided to allow me to represent them at Oatlands Handmade!
The response to the EOI has been stunning and the little shop in High Street Oatlands will be crammed to the window sills with phenominal Tasmanian handmade art and craft!
I had hoped to open last Friday - the 17th - but a combination of rain, a late start with the movers (who, by the way, were nothing short of stupendous - thanks Dion and Shane), and the ability of me to keep up with everyone (old ???) has resulted in this Wednesday as the quiet opening of the door at 9.30 am.
As mentioned to those who I have visited over the past couple of weeks, yes, there will be a party...later in January on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon so that as many as possible can come. We'll have a drink, something to nibble on and someone nice to say a few words! Invites will be sent out to all the clever artisans and supporters in the New Year.
So...exciting ? Yes it sure is. THANK YOU EVERYONE...and I promise to update the Artisan list as soon as I can!
