Ellie here — call out to the Marlborough Communities Market crew…
I hope you’re all well — it’s been an age. I’ve been trying to get this page taken down for years but it turns out Facebook has very helpfully ignored me the entire time and today that feels like a very good thing.
Because I’m launching something new.
I’m creating something that’s not just a retail space, but a place for making — somewhere people can come together to create, run small sessions/workshops, share skills, test ideas, sit at a table and just make things. It’s still taking shape, but it’s getting close.
And it’s brought you guys to mind.
For those who remember those windy old Sundays, slightly chaotic but brilliant Christmas light switch-on nights and even Pop Shop Wiltshire, I still think about the quality of what you all brought — the craft, the care. You were always the gold standard.
So this is a bit of a feeler — if you ran a stall back then, or have something you make, teach, or want to share, I’d love to hear from you. Whether that’s running a session, collaborating, or just being part of it in some way.
It feels quite nice that this page is still here, actually….but maybe this will be when FB decides to finally do something about my ancient request and take it down so maybe send me a friend request to Ellie Leiper. It would be lovely to reconnect
