Who's Who at Old Bolsover Yard

Last week we were away with family in Northumberland for a well deserved break, but now we're back and raring to go.
​
Planning is well and truly underway for the Christmas Bonanza happening at Old Bolsover Yard on 30th November as part of Bolsover Christmas Festival and Lantern Parade but more about that another time.

Makers at Old Bolsover Yard

I wanted to take the opportunity in this weeks blog to remind you about all the great businesses that we are lucky to support as part of Old Bolsover Yard. Within the complex along with The Beehive Cafe and The Gallery we are lucky to have a number of makers who call Old Bolsover Yard home.

Ethos Upcycling take old, discarded or simply unloved items and bring them back to life. Damion's unique selling point is that he tries to breath new life into things that otherwise may end up on the scrapheap and turns them into fabulous items just waiting to be re-homed. Whether you are looking for traditional or a modern twist Damion and his ethos for sustainable products are sure to be a hit.

Cup & Saucer provide tea enthusiasts with ethically sourced, quality loose leaves - laced with personality. Gail puts tea at the heart of everything that she does and is passionate about providing her customers with good quality tea in a variety of unique flavours. From Tideswell Tea to Roaring Rhubarb there is a tea flavour waiting just for you.

The Fabric Den by Molly Felicity Designs has original designs made with you in mind. The Fabric Den is Molly Felicity Designs independent fabric shop based at Old Bolsover Yard.
