I love you to the Loom and back

Seed bead mad (not just looming crazy!)

As you will learn in future blog posts, I was fascinated by seed beads before I’d even heard of looming! Shall I do a blog series about my collection?

Are you looming today?

Keep your Loom light shining

 Shine! Shine! Shine!

It's the Looming life for me!

 

It's a good life!

Yay! The March Meet The Maker Instagram challenge is back for another year! This is the third year I’ve taken part - it’s such good fun!

Come and join me throughout the month of March over on the Lakeland Loom Instagram page.

A load of looming looms!

Hi there all you loomers and loom fans! Something’s looming! This is an aerial view of some retro looms from my collection. Don’t they look fun? Some are by kids toy manufacturers, some are from craft suppliers. Some I don’t know who they were made by! Stay tuned for a series of blog posts about my looms!

Welcome to the Loom of Doom!

Happy Halloween

Visibility Fair (the online craft event, not the Shipping Forecast!)

 

I’m excited to announce that Visibility Fair is now underway! I know it does sound a bit like the Shipping Forecast but it’s actually an online creative market!

The fair is a collaboration between Just a Card campaign and the Handmade Hour community, hosted on the innovative new Tresstle platform.

Lakeland Loom is proud to be taking part along with a whole host of talented artists so do please visit https://tresstle.com/events/visibility-fair to browse all the virtual stalls.

It’s a good opportunity to get ahead on your Christmas shopping or just find yourself a few treats.

Use discount code VF2021 for 10% off at the Lakeland Loom Folksy shop - enjoy!

Forthcoming online event: Visibility Fair by Just a Card and Handmade Hour

It’s never too late to Loom!

 

Never let anyone tell you it’s too late to do, try or be anything you want!

Fly me to the Loom!

 …and let me play among the beads!
