A slight change of plan for tomorrow…

I won’t be at Northallerton tomorrow 16th September as originally planned. Instead, I’m taking an extra day behind the scenes to make, pour and restock ready for the weekend.

But you won’t have to wait long! I’ll now be at Northallerton High Street on Saturday 19th September, 9am–3pm, with lots of your favourites and gorgeous seasonal scents.

Then on Sunday 20th September, 10am–3pm, you’ll find me in Thirsk with Little Bird Artisan Markets.

Thank you, as always, for supporting my little business. I’m looking forward to a busy making day and an even lovelier weekend of markets.

See you Saturday, Northallerton!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who stopped by my little mobile shop in July, made a purchase, shared a kind word or simply came over for a chat. Your support means the absolute world to me, and you’ve made July one to remember.

Now I’m looking ahead to a busy August, and I can’t wait to get back out to some wonderful markets across North Yorkshire.

A big thank you to Little Bird Made Artisan Markets for organising so many fantastic events and bringing together such a lovely community of makers and shoppers. We always look forward to their markets.

If you’re visiting any of the markets this month, I’d love for you to pop by and say hello, have a browse through our handcrafted home fragrances, and maybe discover a new favourite scent.

Thank you for continuing to support small businesses like mine. Every visit, every purchase and every recommendation helps us do what we love, and I’m so grateful for every one of you.

See you soon x

The Little Bird Artisan Market events bring together an incredible community of talented makers from across North Yorkshire. It’s a real privilege to be part of these markets, where fellow makers become more like family, and customers become friends. Those connections are what make these days so special, and we’re truly grateful to be a part of them.

If you’re visiting Malton, please come and say hello. We’d love to help you find your perfect fragrance, have a chat, and introduce you to the amazing local businesses that make these markets so unique.

A new month, new markets, and hopefully lots of familiar faces…

July is shaping up to be one of our busiest months yet, and I honestly couldn’t be more grateful.

Every market gives us the opportunity to meet wonderful people, hear your fragrance stories, refill well-loved candles, and help you find a scent that makes your house feel like home. Those moments are the reason I love what I do.

This month is especially exciting as we’ll also be joining Northallerton High Street every Wednesday as a new regular market. I can’t wait to become part of the community there and meet so many new faces along the way.

Alongside Northallerton, you’ll also find us at some of our favourite Little Bird Artisan Markets throughout July, including Ripon Theatre Festival, Easingwold, Thirsk, Malton, Ripon and finishing the month celebrating Yorkshire Day at Knaresborough Castle.

Whether you’re visiting to browse, refill a favourite candle, discover a new signature fragrance, or simply stop by for a chat, you’ll always receive the warmest welcome.

To everyone who continues to support Prim & Proper, thank you. Every purchase, every recommendation, every conversation at a market really does mean more than you know. Supporting a small business allows me to keep creating timeless fragrances with care, and I’m so grateful you’re part of this journey.

I hope to see many of you this July. Please do come and say hello if you’re nearby.

I was really looking forward to being back at Valley Gardens and seeing so many of you, so this one is especially hard to miss.

Thank you so much for your understanding and continued support, it truly means more than I can say. I never take it for granted.
