If you are coming into Haddenham for the exhibition, another place worth stopping by is the Tythe Barn. They always have wonderful Christmas bits to look at and buy there.

Penny's Furniture will be there on the day selling his wide range of white wood furniture, and Karen Puddephat selling stuff from her dolls house attic. 

K T Miniatures, Combe Crafts and Dateman Books all have websites, so you can look before you come on the 14th November. K T Miniatures and Combe Crafts run workshops, and some examples of these will be on display between their stalls.
