🎨✨ Festive Spotlight On…Lisa from Oohlovelyliloceramics ✨🎁

Bringing colour, fun, and a little cheekiness to our Christmas market is Lisa from Ooh Lovely Lilo Ceramics!

Lisa makes fun, colourful and functional ceramics, often adding a cheeky quote or two for good measure! She uses a mix of wheel-throwing and hand-building techniques, creating pieces that are full of personality and charm.

When she’s not selling at markets, Lisa can be found in her garden workshop in Swindon, where she loves teaching pottery and seeing what others can create. A true maker through and through!

Come and join us on Saturday 29th November, 10am – 2pm, at the Melksham Assembly Hall for a hall full of local makers, handmade treasures, and plenty of Christmas spirit.

We’re fully booked for traders for all of this year’s markets but if you’re a local maker who’d like to be part of the Melksham Makers’ Market next year, we’d love to hear from you! Just drop us an email at [email protected]
and we’ll add you to our mailing list for 2026 applications. 💌
