Ginger House Garden
"We work in harmony with the seasons to create natural and garden inspired floral design. We grow an abundance of flowers in our cutting garden for workshops, intimate weddings and gorgeous gatherings. We also harvest and dry flowers every year in order to extend our flower season. Our cutting garden and studio is nestled on the border of Northumberland and the Scottish Borders, just outside of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
We will be bringing a selection of fresh Christmas wreaths, dried flowers, and a selection of floral gift ideas to the Christmas Fair.”

Mekka Design -
Inspired by my cultural travels, natural forms found in nature and my love for fashion and design, Mekka Jewellery pieces are born. The jewellery pieces are an amalgam of old and new, where the North, South and East meets the modern West. I use ethically sourced gemstones, carefully selected during my travels and from gemstone shops, but you will also find beautiful stones and beads in my designs that have been repurposed from vintage jewellery, all this combined with new, high quality, jewellery components.
