The Trading Barn - Lou Davy - 01892 785214 - www.thetradingbarn.com

The Trading Barn makes a charming and scrumptious mix of fabric home accessories and gifts. Some simply pretty, some a bit rustic with a vintage feel and some just plain gorgeous!

The Trading Barn started from humble beginnings in the Sussex Barn by our cottage. All the products are lovingly hand made, with the collection including a variety of door stops, draught excluders, cushions, lavender bags and pillows.

We think you'll love the beautiful fabrics with comforting tones that are soft to touch. All deserving to be placed somewhere special in your home or as a gift to a fond friend.  Many of the items are inspired by the rustic markets of France or the simplicity of Scandinavian living. Though living in a beautiful hamlet on the Kent and Sussex Border has to be the greatest influence!

Everitt originals are witty, original greetings cards created by cartoonist Alison Everitt who moved from London to Kent in 2007 and has been a regular at the market since 2008. 

The designs, which include ranges called The Joy Of Sheds and You Can never Have Too Many Shoes, are drawn in pen and watercolour and then printed by a local company. For more information on Alison and her work, visit her website www.everittoriginals.co.uk

Digiartlife offers a unique range of greeting cards, wall art and more, illustrating plant life: the unusual, the abstract and the original. 

The majority of my photographic work presents natural images with a slightly abstract twist, but still keeping the essence of what is natural and all around us if we care to look closely enough.

Evolved from me making personalised bunting and bags for friends and their children  about 5 years ago. When I realised that  I could justify my passion for fabric by selling my crafts, I became interested in using vintage and recycled fabrics.  Every bag I make  is slightly different.  I source my fabric from charity shops, boot fairs and the internet.  I adore bright colours and unusual designs, and am always thinking up new ideas to make producing each one more interesting.

Over the past 5 years, I have found my vintage fabric handbags to be the most  popular, and always welcome ideas and feedback from  my lovely customers.
