visiting a craftfair in Corbenic


This Saturday Anneruth visited a very nice and very inspiring craftfair in the Corbenic Camphill Community (near Dunkeld).

The video and the pictures should speak for themselves : just click on the links...

- and tell the story of the story telling tent, the felted gnome stall, the weaving and craft workshops, and much more.


These delightful gnomes are the work of a Ductch artist, inspired by the book and art works of Wil Huygen and Rien Poortvliet






This is one of the felted wallhangings made in the Crafts workshop where everything is being made from silk painting, over felting to different styles of weaving.


The best thing was the storytelling yurt, with the felt panels depicting both scenes of the local area and from stories, and the storyteller with her songs and harp (see picture on top of this post here)

As said: have a look at the photo album http://picasaweb.google.com/woolcraft.atgalgael/CraftFairAtCorbenic
and let the pictures speak for themselves.
