Perth Makers Market @ Heathcote

Hope to see you at Goolugatup Heathcote – 50 Duncraig Road, Applecross on Sunday 17th December, 9.30am to 3.30pm.

Beautiful grounds to enjoy a beautiful day out with the Perth Makers Market as a bonus!!

I’ll be located on the verandah behind the clocktower over looking the kiddies playground!

It’s that time of the year….AGAIN!!!!

The “pointy end” of the year is fast approaching!!!

Isa’s Igloo has maintained our presence at Fremantle Markets, in conjunction with fellow potter Judy Nastov – and although our styles and products are quite different, our work seems very complementary to each other.

I haven’t had Isa’s Igloo out and about much in 2023 but I will be attending the Perth Makers Market at Heathcote on Sunday 18th December with some very new pieces becoming available then.

For the moment, I ask that you bare with me while a necessary change in Web Hosting Supplier is working my very non-techno head overtime and a few little glitches are being discovered with this site, which I am currently sorting out.

COVID update

We have been so, so lucky in Western Australia! Life has pretty much carried on as normal, and only now are we experiencing our first true “lockdown” since March last year! At this stage the lockdown finishes 6pm Friday 5th February 2021….fingers crossed that all goes to plan!

On that note however…Fremantle Markets will be CLOSED on Friday 5th February (with the exception of the Fruit and Vege section which will trade only between 9am to 4pm).

The general market area (the entire market) will re-open on Saturday 6th & Sunday 7th normal hours 9am to 6pm.

In the meantime, and on a positive note…. I have 5 days of uninterrupted creative time…. !!

City of Melville Open Studios Trail…..

The City of Melville Open Studios Trail kicks off this Saturday for 2 weekends. A great opportunity to support local artists, buy original artworks and enjoy the opportunity to explore and discover the various wonders and hidden treasures within the City of Melville!
