Handmade Brighton is unlike other non-profit shops i've known of, or had the joy of being part of...its,well, seriously cool! located half way up St.James, Brighton (next to the St.James pub) and formed by a group of local designer/makers and run by 7 volunteers, Its refreshing to be out of the lanes area which can often be overwhelming. Handmade has affordable retail spaces to rent to Brighton based artists/designers/crafters on a month by month basis. (as pictured!) They host a selection of brilliant people selling exciting and wonderfully made things. From the smallest hand drawn bird brooches, to hand blocked hats and laser cut jewellery. And as of last week, i am super happy to say i have a space there. With much help from Kirstin i hasten to add! You really should drop in. Its a hop skip and a jump away from Red Roaster...what more could you need?
