Everything from dog soap to crazy knitted tea cosies will be on display at a newly launched Sidmouth craft market.
West Country Crafters will be bringing more than 30 traders, from across Devon, Dorset, Cornwall and Somerset, to Kennaway House every first and third Saturday of the month, between 10am and 4pm, from now on.
The next market is due to take place on June 1 with attendees being promised everything from candles and embroidery to origami, paintings and eco-friendly recycled products, along with so much more.
On June 15 there will also be four glass workers at the fair, each who have a different speciality - this includes stain glass, blown glass, fused glass and lampwork glass beads.
Sue Britnell, one of the organisers, said: "The first market was held on May 4 and we had a brilliant reaction.
