STALLHOLDERS:
d8makers
We are three Irish makers who came together in 2020 to support each other and share our passion for sustainable, Irish-made crafts. Each of us bring a unique talent, rooted in traditional methods and natural materials.
Rachel is a printmaker specialising in hand-printed designs on 100% linen, sourced from an Irish company in Wexford. She’s interested about working with natural dyes and water-based inks, using traditional Indian wooden blocks she has designed, to create each piece by hand, ensuring every print is truly one-of-a-kind.
Chloe, a glass artist, creates her pieces in her Dublin 8 studio using 100% recycled glass. With a background in graphic design, Chloe not only crafts her own distinctive glasswork and woodwork but also designs the visual identity for our collective, ensuring a cohesive brand that reflects our commitment to artistry and sustainability.
Eileen designs beautiful, hand-crafted notebooks made in Dublin, and curates a selection of vintage homewares, particularly for the holiday season. Recently, she has expanded her work to include Irish linen pieces for the home, blending classic charm with timeless quality.
As a collective, we aim to offer more than just beautiful products; we provide a connection to craftsmanship, sustainability, and the legacy of Irish artistry. Join us as we create pieces that are not only beautiful but meaningful, crafted with care and a shared vision for a sustainable future.

KitLish Designs
KitLish Designs make colourful and functional eco homewares. Made by a queer and non binary couple in Dublin who love having fun with bright colours. The idea for KitLish Designs was born out of the pandemic when we became plant parents and wanted to find plant pots that were colourful and not made of plastic. Not finding anything we wanted we decided to make our own and things grew from there.

Anna Rave
I’m Anna Rave – a German designer based in Dublin. I graduated from the National College of Art & Design with a degree in fashion design in 2023.
My designs are inspired by architectural drawings from places that make me feel at home. HEIMAT – a feeling of belonging not tied down to a place. Each of my pieces starts with the careful selection of lambswool yarn and colours. Depending on the pieces I use pure, finest lambswool or Donegal Yarns.
Through many steps of knitting and felting the yarn is then turned into finished pieces in my studio in Dublin 7. At the market I will have a range of jumpers, hats, cardigans and scarves.

Bia Cultures
Bia Cultures is Laura and Rory’s fermented foods project, rooted in Irish food sovereignty and a respect for local food growers. With our backgrounds in hospitality, we’re all about celebrating Irish vegetables and ingredients wherever we can. Our products might not be traditional, but they’re a joyful fusion of time-honored methods and seasonal Irish produce.
One of our favorite things is heading across the country, meeting small-scale farmers, and discovering the incredible food they grow. In every jar of our kimchi, for example, you’ll find vegetables from three or four different growers, each one adding its own story to the mix. It’s these little joys that make us so proud of what we do.

The Yard
trading at the market Friday & Saturday
All around the sun
We are Anna O’Byrne, a fine artist and maker and graphic designer Brian Heffernan. We live in a small house in Dublin, Ireland with our daughter Eve.
We began by making cards to help mark occasions with weight and sincerity. The result of conversation and our shared appreciation for the tactility of paper, the work occupies a space somewhere between art and design. Brian’s role involves the generation of form and the space between the products while Anna works with a focus on colour and ensuring each product is a statement in its own right.
Sustainability, craft and community lie at heart of the ethos that informs the work. Our products are inspired by the shared human experience and celebrate the everyday highs and lows that make up our lives.

The Dublin Honey Bee Project
We bring you RAW DUBLIN HONEY harvested by the Dublin Honeybee Project, unheated and course-filter to retain all its natural goodness.
More than 15 years ago we recognised the need to support our native Irish honeybees and the wider urban environment, by keeping bees within Dublin city. To fund this, we bring our honey direct to honey fans, post-coded to allow customers to choose a honey that is as local as possible. We just love bees and our colony management is always centred around looking after their welfare. In August we take the girls on their holidays to the Dublin Mountains, where they gather amazing heather honey. Heather honey has been proven to have greater levels of health-giving anti-oxidants and phenolic compounds than Manuka honey. Please enjoy this wonderful health-giving natural superfood.

Twigín
Twigín is the brainchild of Irish visual artist Ciara O’Connor. Ciara and her family
moved from Dublin to her mother’s hometown of Kenmare in the summer of 2022.
Inspired by the creativity and entrepreneurship of the busy market town, she began
thinking of ways to integrate her artwork into sustainable, eco-friendly giftware that
would also bring her work to a wider audience. Focusing on her thread drawings of
Irish literary, music and revolutionary icons, people she has drawn repeatedly
throughout her life, she set about sourcing the most ethical, environmentally aware
suppliers she could find. All paper is sustainable and recycled, inks are eco-friendly,
and fabric is 100% certified Organic Fairtrade Cotton.
The name Twigín came from the nickname Ciara’s mother Doris gave her as a child,
a fitting tribute to the woman whose strength and tenacity inspired her to take the
leap into starting her own business. The colours of Twigín are inspired by the Irish
landscape, particularly the flora and hedgerows of Doris’ native Kenmare – gorse
yellow, foxglove purple, forest green and the fiery orange red of montbretia.

Bodhi Blends
I’m Aisling and Bodhi Blends is my humble little shop of handcrafted sprays, balms, creams and lotions using plant based potions. Working with high quality, ethically sourced and predominantly organic botanical ingredients, I create products that are designed to support and nourish inside out.
I think we all know that the cosmetic industry can be a bit gross, preying on insecurities and creating needs we didn’t think we had. But for me skincare is all about the application and the enriching ritual we can create around it – taking the time (however brief) to really luxuriate in the process of applying something nourishing to your skin, giving yourself a mini massage, tuning into the smells, breathing them in, breathing deeper, slowing down- a small nervous system regulation snack

Mangan Studio
Mangan Studio is a pottery studio set in a stone grain loft in Co.Wexford by the Blackstairs mountains. Established by Gayle James in 2020 to produce functional pottery for the home alongside teaching people to create their own work.
I’m interested in making pots that promote good food and nourish the people who use them. The process of making so directly with my hands connects me back to myself, it’s why I teach people how to make their own pots, to bring community into the making process and share the empowering tools it offers. It comes down to building and contributing to a community of people who take care of each other and themselves.

Katharina Treml Ceramics
I am a potter based along the beautiful Copper Coast in County Waterford. I make wheel-thrown tableware and one-off pieces in stoneware and porcelain, often using local clays and rocks as decorative elements in my work. The majority of my glazes are made with wood ash collected from my or my friends’ fireplaces – every batch of wood ash gives a different colour response and a unique sense of place. Working with clay is all about connection and tactile engagement for me. I am interested in pots that are a quiet, but enriching part of people’s everyday lives. They can hold memories of a really good meal, a certain moment, story or person.

Baressential | Art of Soap
I am a painter with a keen interest in botany. I founded Baressential
in 2014 with the belief that bringing art into all that we do and
working in harmony with nature is a potent source of healing for us,
the planet and the future.
I am fascinated in and in awe of the dynamic power of plants to heal,
colour, and create scent.
Using the finest sustainably sourced natural ingredients I create
little pieces of soap art. Sumptuous plant butters and oils to soothe
and nourish, herbs, spices and mineral pigments to colour and pure
essential oils to perfume.
Each unique piece of Baressential soap is blended, poured, bevelled,
polished and packed by hand.
I will have my complete range of soaps, mini bar gift boxes, body oils
and sea salt soaks. You can pick and choose based on colour or scent
to create heavenly scented gift combination sets to suit all pockets
and tastes.

Liadain Aiken Knitwear
Hello, I have been making knitwear since 2013 selling my first pieces at The Flea Christmas Market in Smithfield! LA Knitwear was born out of a love for wool, colour and a desire to have a light footprint on the earth. Oh and because I always want to be warm. Over the past ten years our knitwear was in shops in Ireland and abroad and now I mainly sell online and at the odd market.
I have been based in West Cork for the past five years. Myself and my small team of two knitters make all the pieces on hand driven knitting machines, mainly using Merino wool. Each piece is sampled in my studio and then the patterns sent to the knitters in Waterford and Dublin. Together we make kerchiefs, hats, scarves, jumpers, cardigans and dresses. I am delighted to have a few new pieces this year with sleeveless vests, a round necked cardigan and a hoodie. Look forward to seeing you at the market!
