Markets and the making room

I had a lovely time at the Nook Market in North Hobart yesterday.

Many thanks to all who supported the market and to my two lovely stallholder neighbours...Susa Ceramics: http://www.etsy.com/shop/susaceramics and Seaside Expressions: http://www.facebook.com/Seasidexpressions#!/groups/362697614718/

I hope to be back there again soon. Here are some pics from the making room.

Upcoming markets

At nara design we make quality clothing for babies and children from 0 to 7 years, as well as clothing for adults and a small selection of home wares (cushions and bedding). Our creations are all about celebrating beautiful textiles. We use quality fabrics including organic cotton, organic wool and hemp fabrics, low impact textiles, Japanese and vintage fabrics, as well as Tasmanian manufactured woollen blanket fabrics and hand screen printed fabrics made in Australia. Our designs are simple, allowing our passion for textiles to speak for itself.

At the beginning of this year we did a lot of research and thinking about where we wanted to head with nara design in 2012. We purchased a large collection of new textiles and developed a range of new designs and ideas. Our designs will be simple allowing the textiles to be the star of our products. We hope to bring a unique and stylish collection of children’s wear, women’s wear and home wears.

Come and see us at the following markets:

  • Nook Market in Hobart on the 19th February 2012
  • The Market in Hobart on 8th July and 4th November 2012
  • Niche Market in Launceston - to be confirmed
