Happy May everyone!
 
Hope you have all been enjoying the warmer weather, blue skies and sunshine! 
 
Thank you for everyone’s continued support of the team and it has been great to see lots of new members joining us too. Lot of members reached big milestones in their Etsy shops in April from starting their shop, making their first sale to members who have recently hit big sales milestones. Congratulations everyone! 
 
This month we have a busy month ahead for the team with lots going on. 
 
DORSET TEAM SPRING FAIR 
 
This Saturday (Saturday 4th May) we have our Dorset Team Spring Fair 2019 at the Allendale Centre in Wimborne. We have 60 stalls by Dorset Team members all under one roof! 
 
If you are free that day, please do head down to the fair, it is going to be a fantastic day out and great way to support local independent makers and sellers and see what the team is all about.
