Some of the many beautiful items produced by Donegal Craftmakers
A group of craft makers from all parts of Donegal have come together to form a partnership to promote their own crafts and highlight the huge range of quality products that are handmade here in Donegal by small family businesses.
Working together as a group, they arrange Craft fairs throughout the year - including a Christmas Craft Fair coming up soon.
They also make a range of bespoke products for a wide variety of commercial customers, individual customers, and sales outlets.
A spokesperson said: “Donegal has a long-respected tradition in craft working. It is the aim of this group to continue in this tradition and provide a wide range of products made locally by individuals- but benefiting from the synergy of a collective partnership.”
Products made by the group include handmade soaps, Donegal greeting cards, designer mugs, prints, calendars, bespoke wooden products, art painting, children’s books, music, candles, hats, bags, Donegal tweed homewares, jewellery, hampers, bakery treats alpaca gifts, Donegal specialist prints and much much more.
