Local Crafters

I would like to say a warm thank you to 4 friends who have very generously donated some goods that they have created.

Patsy Toony makes beautiful hand crafted, sewn items from pretty materials.

I first met Patsy at the Associação Guarda-Chuva launch craft fair. Since that time she has generously donated tea cosies, bags & bottle covers to me to help raise funds for the charity.

Holly of “bespokedesignsbyholly” makes beautiful treasures from resin and polymer clay.

I’ve known Holly for 7 years, a kind friend and supporter of the charity work that I do.

Last year Holly gave me a large collection earrings, keyrings  and delightful teddy ‘pocket hugs’’. They all proved very popular items at the Christmas Fairs that we attended.

Hot off the Press, Holly has just pledged us more of her wonderful creations, so keep your eyes peeled ladies. New goods to our shopping page coming soon.

Debbie Cumming became a good friend even before she moved to Portugal. A fun, kind & warm hearted woman.

Over the last few years, Debbie has given lots of goodies for us to sell and auction to raise funds to help feed families.

However, this year, through her business, Snoffie, Debbie is now producing mugs and shopping bags especially for us with our own designs.

In our next auction you will be offered some fun colour changing mugs and other goods that she has donated.  On our selling page, on this website, we are now selling other mugs and a shopping bag, again with our own designs.

Finally, thanks to Debbie’s suggestion, Emma of Big Sister Social Media, managed put together my vision of an Algarve Emporium Shopper logo, which is on our shopping bag. We are absolutly delighted

Thank you to you all 😘
