Mathilda’s Market is full of some of the best of Australia’s crafters and designers, selling their unique handmade baby and kids products. Beautiful clothing, accessories, homewares and toys are all there, so it’s a great place if you are looking for a unique and stylish gift for a little person.
Entries close at 4pm Saturday. A random name will be drawn on Saturday afternoon and I will contact the winner directly, so make sure you leave a current email address. You will need to collect the voucher from the organiser Anne on Sunday at the market itself.
