Part of our philosophy is to engage local artists and designers and the producers listed below are doing great things close to home, some of the items are exclusive to 'alabaster'. I just love giving a local an opportunity to sell their products at alabaster, it gives me joy to see other people appreciate the idea of craft and artistic talent.
Which is why about five local designers pop in from time to time to show their latest creative pursuits. Of course, they are one of a kind and it's the part of 'alabaster' you never quite know for sure!
- Audrey Harnett - apart from her fabulous jewellery, Audrey's talents know no bounds, along with her beautiful hand forged silver pieces come amazing chandeliers made with granny's old glassware and a light fitting made of mum's EPNS spoons and cake forks.
- Viva la Diva - Susun Garrard from VLD is a rampant upcycler..if that's how you say it. Everything is made of something used, something loved and something that someone else may not have seen the value in. Beautiful and unique. Its no wonder her and Audrey have become besties!
- Max and Me - the very lovely Sarah Lehmann whips up sweet fabric brooches and cushions on the home sewing machine with dog max, at her feet.
And others of course...just depends on who's inspired at the time!
