As you may know, our next focus of pop up activity will be in Sydenham, from May to July (exact dates to come). We’re in the process of obtaining several shops along the high street, and the promotion will be a united one, joining up with the Sydenham Arts Festival which runs in early July. It’s too...

I know it's not a Sydenham event, but I can't bear the beatings I'd get if I didn't let the Sydenham women (and some of the men) know about it... Did you hear the rumours? They’re true!

A few images of their products for you here:
