Pop Up Prints

Buoyed up by another successful outing at Fortingall Art the Splinter Group is branching out again. We are going to be in a ‘pop-up shop’ in Dunkeld for three weeks between the 10th and 27th October.

We will be in Zigzag, next to Palmerstons Café. Zigzag was a lovely little shop where Dave Amos sold mostly locally produced handmade goods. He used to sell some of my stuff too, mostly beads and felt from my early craft selling days. Dave has gone on to other things but for three weeks only we'll be stepping in to fill the shop before the new tenants come in.  We’ll be mostly selling prints in our three week stint, though Penny Kennedy has her new home-ware and wrapping papers for sale under her new ‘Homebird’ brand. Linda Farquharson has lots of her exquisite lino prints, and I’ve put in a few too. And of course there’s the range of Splinter output, especially the Animal Alphabet and this year’s Calendar project. There’s also some Philip Wood pots, handmade notebooks and wood carvings.

I went along at the weekend to help Penny and Linda set up and was impressed how good it looked even before we’d got it fully setup.
