Just back from a sale/party at a friend’s house. She’d put on a few snacks and drinks and Maureen had set up her Emmanuel Crafts stall and her LEARN stall.
There was also another local artisan card maker selling her products. The Emmanuel Crafts stall sold all kinds of bead work – predominantly jewellery but some surprising items such as coasters. All come in attractive gift style packaging.
A range of genuine Nepali items were available on the LEARN stall including a range of bags, scarves, notebooks, blankets, etc. The blankets deserve special mention – made from Yak’s wool, they are incredibly warm but very light, making them perfect for people who need the warmth but can’t tolerate the weight of a thick blanket.
It was lovely to catch up with other friends at the party and great to watch Maureen’s young granddaughter demonstrating her fabulous sales technique – she put The Apprentice candidates to shame!!
