A Mini craft market is sharing our car show day based in the sports hall Gilligan st tomorrow. The stores at the craft market include wooden crafts, handmade cosmetics, clothing, jewelry, wool, soaps, and lots of other handcrafted items.
It’s a great time to stock up on nice things for Christmas, because - you know it - it’ll be Christmas before we realise it. 
Entry is $5 to the craft market and show combined. Great value - you can’t get a coffee for that price now.
