I know we moan about the weather . . . but really ?

It's mid August and as I'm writing (typing) this the temperature says just 15 degrees C!  Enough said I think.

Have we skipped to Autumn already?
And might we have an Indian Summer?

Malvern Shows have a habit of being unexpected weather-wise. The Malvern Spring Garden Festival saw us all, visitors and exhibitors alike, wilting in hotter than normal weather.
So maybe, perhaps, if we are lucky, we will be having an Indian Summer at the time of the Malvern Autumn Show?
Let's hope so.

And ever wondered where that expression comes from?

Apparently; it dates back to the 1700s America, where "it was noted in regions inhabited by Native Americans, or because the natives first described it to Europeans, or it had been based on the warm and hazy conditions in autumn when Native Americans hunted."

Anyway I digress . .

Fact is, our marvellous members are thinking of Autumn already?

Why? Well, as of today, it's only 38 days to The Malvern Autumn Show and we are designing/making/crafting furiously while peddling hard to be seamlessly organised for the big 3 days from Friday 27th to Sunday 29th September.

We will be at our usual "Three Counties Home" in the enormous Indoor Shopping Hall, Guild of Craft's shopping area. We are proud of our beautifully curated show within a show and you are absolutely guaranteed to find beautiful, unique, high quality workmanship from our talented members.

  • Come and Meet The Maker.
  • Discover the inspiration.
  • Talk about the materials & techniques (however, don't expect to uncover all the secrets).
  • And investigate the option to commission a truly one-off, original & bespoke piece as a gift for yourself or someone extra, extra special.

Yes, its that time of year!

Malvern Autumn Show is barely two and a half weeks away. My, doesn't it come around quickly?

22nd - 24th September inclusive.

Excitement is an understatement!
Our stand requirements have been submitted to our 'Show Co-ordinator', publicity is organised by our Publicity Team and yours truly is updating the website.

Many of us have been designing and redesigning our stands for Malvern and this will take various forms from the beautifully hand drawn, to sketches on piece of paper, to using 2D or even 3D CAD.

Now, I can't draw to save my life and my sketches just look like a spider wandered through the ink! I'm definitely not an arty crafter, so CAD works for me!

Worcestershire Guild are part of the Guilds of Craftsmen Arcade in the Wye Hall. And, dare I say, saving the best until last, we are right at the back. There is Visitor Information on the official website, and hopefully, a site map to come.

For us it's a show within a show, organised and executed to give you a good visitor experience. There is plenty of room to wander amongst our designer makers, to stop & chat,  whether it be with a view to buying or just for interest, you will all be most welcome. Here's a little taste from 2022

At Malvern you will find 35 - 40 of our fabulous designer makers & invited guests. Skilled makers with clay, glass, paper, textiles, metals & wood.

While we might have 3 'glass' designers, their techniques, skills & approach lead to very different results. The same can be said for all the media.
We have artists with silver, gold, copper and steel, and not just jewellery - that in itself could be with precious stones, for special and significant events or for everyday.

Wood is crafted into fine, heirloom furniture, carved into sculptures and on a large scale. Textiles to wear, for function, for everyday and for occassions. And clay varies from the finest porcelain to garden sculptures, to quirky pieces that will absolutely make you laugh.

All beautiful pieces of unique and very personal work, made with heart and committment for you to delight in owning.

So much to see.
