Crafts Alive

Crafts Alive Crafts Alive is a co-operative of Designers and Makers living and working in West Wales. There are lots of craft shops in Wales selling ‘Welsh’ gifts.

But look on the bottom of your authentic Welsh souvenir and you might be surprised to discover that the Welsh dragon in your hand has flown all the way from China. Of course they do have dragons in China and very handsome they are too, but they are not Welsh dragons. If you want a genuine keepsake from Wales made by a local crafts person then you couldn’t do much better than visit Crafts Alive in

Llandeilo. Everything in the shop is made in Wales and the majority is made by Artists and crafts people living within 30 miles of the town. Crafts Alive is a non-profit making co-operative with over 40 members who take it in turn to run the shop. This way they keep their overheads to a minimum and their prices as low as possible. Buying from Crafts Alive you are contributing to the local economy, supporting local artists and craftspeople and helping us to keep Welsh Crafts - Alive!

Happy Friday!! Today is day one of the Festival of the senses here in Llandeilo. A fantastic three day long event guaranteed to start a little festive wiggle in even the most waterlogged step!
There’s plenty to see and do all around town but I’m (obviously) giving a shout out to some of my colleagues from Crafts Alive who have set up mini workshops in the Horeb, just through the archway on the up hill side of the Cawdor. You can meet the makers, chat and see some of the techniques we use to create the beautiful things you see in Crafts Alive everyday. We’d love to meet you! 🍁🍂☔️🎄🍂🍁
Crafts Alive opening hours this weekend are:
Friday 10am - 8pm
Saturday 10am - 6pm
Sunday 10am - 4pm

Gorgeous images from Richie Dean for you this morning 😍.
For those of you not familiar with our shop, Crafts Alive has a gallery space upstairs featuring work by our wonderful artists, print makers and photographers as well as some larger gallery pieces by our other makers. People have been known to vanish up there and leave, hours later, dehydrated and clutching heavy packages 😳. Don’t worry, we always check before we lock up for the night 😇.
