CRAF T FA I RS
Firmly established in the local festive calendar, the Cambridge Made Christmas Fair returns to St Andrew’s Street Baptist Church for a weekend of crafty delights from 28 to 30 November. From quirky and unique jewellery and cosy crochet and knits to on-trend homewares, natural skincare, upcycled treasures and original prints, posters and cards: it’s a one-stop shop for blitzing your Christmas list. The fair will include stalls from 45 designer- makers from around Cambridge and East Anglia, offering a chance to chat to the people behind the products and soak up a friendly, festive atmosphere. Plus there’s a cafe where you can grab a hot drink and a wedge of cake. “The perfect antidote to a predictable, mass-produced high street Christmas,” say the organisers – and we have to agree!
