CRAFT - Carlow Farmers Market

CRAFT

Hi, I’m Evelyn. I set up Under the Oak Tree Designs in 2013. The name Under the Oak tree Designs came from Celtic mythology where the Oak symbolises truth, courage, wisdom and in Celtic language the word for Oak ‘daur’ meaning ‘door’ was seen as a doorway to other worlds.

My background is in graphic design; this ensures all of of designs are of the highest quality. I have been creating since I was a child and I really love design and colour and everything it encompasses. I am passionate about Irish crafts and recycling is very important to me. I create items mixing repurposed and new to create something unique. Mixing new and old keeps everything fresh and I love the unique end-product my customers gets. My collection of designs is vast and impressive and they make the perfect gift whatever your budget. The range includes personalised prints and cards and framed letters that can en personalised for a playroom or bedroom. Additionally there are many smaller items like bracelets, key rings, pins and badges that I am delighted to personalise for you.

Hi, I’m Martene, the owner of Prism Jewellery.

I am a native of Carlow town and I have been making handcrafted artisan jewellery for a number of years; what started out as a hobby soon developed into a thriving small business!

I am passionate about my craft and the main objective of my business is to make one-off pieces that are affordable to everyone.

I use lots of different materials in the creation of my jewellery – precious metal clay (pure silver), polymer clay, copper sheet, aluminium and even humble paper.

Colour, prisms and rainbows are the inspiration for my work. Each handcrafted item is a unique piece but I also accept commissions upon request.

My jewellery is light, so even though some pieces are large they are easy to wear. They make the ideal and affordable gift to suit all occasions.

I prefer to meet my customers in person so do not currently sell online.

To that end, my jewellery is on sale at the Carlow Farmers Market or you can contact me through my Instagram account where pictures and reels are posted regularly.

Feel free to call in and view my stand. I look forward to seeing you there!

Hi, I’m Annamadonna, AKA Mall and I’m the force behind My Big Fat Hat!

I make original and unique one-off hats for men, women, children and babies.

I’ve been crocheting for many years, it’s always been my meditation and my relaxation so I decided to turn my hobby into a small business 5 years ago.

I grew up in Carlow, so I’m very happy to be part of Carlow’s Farmers market.

It’s great to see all the familiar faces every Saturday and of course to have the chats.

See you at the Market!
