Get your knickers in a twist: meet Colie co

Here at reetsweet we love a bit if luxury: whether it's tea with posher than usual biscuits or a piece of pretty silk - we all need some treats in life!


Colie co got in touch with us and will be coming to the next fair with their handmade knickers, pj shorts and other luxury, ethically made treats.


Colie Co is a brand that specialises in ethical but beautiful fashion all hand made in a studio in Yorkshire. All fabric is sourced locally or scraps that were going to be thrown away are used or they are made from old garments that have reached the end of their life. All buttons used are vintage or are re-used from old garments, and the sew in labels are even woven in the UK.



We're very excited about meeting them at our next event, head to www.reetsweet.com for more info.

Hello folks!

We hope you've had a wonderful summer and enjoyed yourselves! We went to Beacon's Festival, baked a lot of cake and started making our very own jewellery line - woop! But we're back and here to please, with a new designer/maker event in Leeds at The Corn Exchange on Sat Dec 7th.

The perfect day to come to town all cosy in your mittens, have a piece of cake, a cuppa and buy some crafty treats for those you love! Hope to see you there...

It's here! 11am onwards...The Sheffield Spring Spectacular!


We aren't ones to boast, but tomorrow's fair in Sheffield at the Millennium Gallery is shaping up to be a belter so please bob down and take a peek, it's free and we are open until 5pm - just 2 mins walk from the train station!...




What can you expect?

Reetsweet is no ordinary craft fair, we handpick only the best quality crafts, and the most original makers around to bring you something worth leaving the high street behind for. You'll find original art, jewellery, printmaking, homewares including textiles and ceramics, upcycling - you name it, it's here, and it's all a little bit different to what you think of as 'craft'.

We began in 2010 with a mission - to campaign against crap craft and the general old fuddy duddy image of crafting and put on fairs that showcase modern, fashionable craft at it's best...so get down and show your support tomorrow...see you there!
