Encraftment is back for Christmas, filled with handmade gifts, artisanal products, and local makers showcasing their talents. If you’re in Christchurch on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 November, and looking for the kind of Christmas shopping that comes made with love and care, look no further than our favourite local craft market.
Craft markets are a great way to support small businesses and local artisans, meet makers in person, and connect with like-minded individuals who share a passion for all things handmade. Encraftment features a wide variety of handmade goods, including jewellery, ceramics, art, textiles, bath and wellness products, and gourmet food. And because these items are made locally, you can rest assured that they’re crafted with care and attention to detail. For your Christmas shopping, there’s no shortage of options to choose from.
Like Felt, when you shop at Encraftment, you’re not only supporting small businesses and artisans – you’re also helping to keep creativity and traditional crafting techniques alive. Many of the items you’ll find at a craft market are made using time-honoured methods and are inspired by the rich cultural and culinary heritage of New Zealand.
Whether you’re a seasoned crafter yourself or simply appreciate the beauty of handmade goods, there’s something for everyone at Christmas Encraftment. There’s great food and coffee, it’s family-friendly, and entry is free!
Mark your calendar for this amazing Ōtautahi market, and experience the joy of supporting small businesses, discovering new handmade treasures, and connecting with the local crafting community.
