Carlow Christmas Fair


Hoje visitei uma feira de artesanato de Natal num dos lugares mais bonitos do Condado de Carlow, nas ruinas de Ducketts Grove. Aí apreciei o trabalho e conheci vários artistas locais; a minha preferida foi realmente a Mary Doyle da "Donard Workshop" que faz bonecos e pantufas giríssimas que podem ver aqui...as que comprei ainda não têm destinatário, mas eram tão giras que não lhes resisti :)

Today I've visited a Christmas Arts & Crafts Fair in one of the most beautiful places of County Carlow, the Ducketts Grove ruins. There I appreciated the work and met several local artesans; my favourite was Mary Doyle from "Donard Workshop" that makes beautiful dolls and slipers that you can see here...the ones I got weren't bought for anyone in particular but they were so cute, I couldn't resist them :)

Hi Ana, pity I did not know you were going to the Fair, as I went along this afternoon also, we could have explored it together. Wasn't it fun. I enjoyed mulled wine and a mince pie, met lots of old friends and neighbours and met the cheese woman again (I was on TV "Ear to the Ground" with her a few weeks ago)and took some great photos. hope to see you this week. hugs Margie.
