New products & our 2024 events season!
Just like virtually everyone else in the UK we have been doing daily sun dances and willing the rain clouds to just pack up and leave! It’s certainly been the wettest winter and non-existent spring we can remember - not only would we like to be able to step foot outside without full waterproofs on, but we’re also on the countdown to our 2024 outdoor events season! Here’s our full event calendar for this spring and summer, and we’re thrilled to be dusting off the trade stand, packing up the caravan and hitting the road very soon.
We’re at Badminton Horse Trials at the Badminton Estate in Gloucestershire from Wednesday 8th to Sunday 12th May. Find us in our usual spot in the Rural Crafts tent by main entrance.
Then, we head to the Bolesworth International Equestrian Summer Festival at Bolesworth Castle in Cheshire for the day on Saturday 8th June for a really exciting VIP charity fashion show with some very special guests!
We’ll also be at The Game Fair at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire from Friday 26th to Sunday 28th July with our stockists Country Gift Company on the E.J. Churchill Stand.
And we round off our outdoor events season with Burghley Horse Trials at Burghley House in Lincolnshire from Thursday 5th to Sunday 8th September.
We only do a few shows because my children are 2 and 4 and my husband Nick is also self employed so it’s quite a juggle managing the children, house and husband logistics to get away for a few days with the stand! We hope to see as many of you as possible over the summer, so keep an eye on our social media for stand numbers and more details as we get closer to each date… and there’s more event news!
New product launch at Badminton Horse Trials
We’re not just bringing our best-selling fleece garments and leather goodies to the events this year, we’re over the moon to be launching a new product line too! You asked, and we’ve delivered - introducing men’s fleece gilets!
We’ll be unveiling these limited edition gilets at the stand to pre-order during Badminton Horse Trials so make sure you swing by the Rural Crafts tent and be one of the first to snap one up for the lovely man (or men!) in your life. Making our beloved gilets in men’s sizes (and new colours!) has been on our radar for a while and we can’t wait to see people wearing them over the summer.
Join us for a Charity Fashion Show at Bolesworth International!
If you love the sound of watching thrilling international show jumping, soaking up the vibe of a VIP area, enjoying a fashion show and partaking in some retail therapy, this news will be right up your street! We’ve collaborated with the team at Boleworth to organise a charity fashion show in the VIP zone on Saturday 8th June to showcase three amazing local British brands and raise funds for a wonderful local charity.
If top-notch international show jumping, shopping, the VIP zone and fashion (all for charity) sounds like your perfect combination, make sure you snap up your tickets for Saturday 8th June ASAP! We’ll be sharing more details very soon on social media, and we hope to see lots of you there.
See you soon!
