Throwback: London Crafts Week 2019

This week has been pretty exciting for all the craftsmanship, design and DIY lovers among us. Reflecting on the globally hyped trend of celebrating crafts and homemaking, this year’s LCW (@londoncraftweek) was filled with 5 days of inspiring talks, workshops, demonstrations and exhibitions.

Find our top picks below!

“London has long had a Fashion Week and a Design Festival. Now there is London Craft Week. A magical combination of imagination, individuality, passion and skill found in the best-made of things.”
- Guy Salter, Chairman of London Craft Week

 

Peckham Craft Show: An Annual Celebration of Modern Craft

Celebrating over 50 makers, including wood-block printer Louisa Loakes and ceramicists Hannah Bould and Lily Pearmain, the Peckham Craft Show offered a wide range of workshops, such as natural dying and eco printing with botanicals. Organised by London-based makers Chloe Phelps and Rachael Pilston, this show surely wasn’t one to miss!

UK-Japan Craft (Kōgei) Picnic at Chelsea Physic Garden

As beautiful as it sounds, the craft picnic at Chelsea Physic Garden organised by Japanese craftspeople brought people together, using their favourite handmade cups and dishes to enjoy the fresh aromas of the Japanese cuisine. Definitely one of the more expensive picks of the week, but totally worth it.
