	Emma Willcox Moontide Creams Emma creates natural beauty products that work with the skin. Human skin is amazing and absorbs a high percentage of everything it comes into contact with. Therefore, Moontide sources organic ingredients wherever possible and the herbs used are grown without the aid of chemicals. Moontide is against animal testing. The Moontide collection includes: Hand Creams, Foot Creams, Lip Balms, Antiseptic Salves, and Seaweed Face Creams and Soaps.

	Siobain O'Brien Fanta Glebe ceramics I use a range of techniques from modelling to slip-casting to create my work. I used layered card to form simple but stunning effects on my Porcelain vases. I also use clay that I dig straight from the land in Kilfenora. It is mixed with water, sieved, and wedged by hand before it is ready to make my whimsical elves, dragons, happy sheep and much more....take home a little piece of Ireland!

	Ahmed Essaadaoui A native of Morocco, Ahmed is a talented Craftsperson, wood Sculptor and Artist. Based in Co. Westmeath he has a strong affinity with the western seaboard and the Burren area in particular. A skilled leather worker he sources his organically cured and dyed goat, cow and camel leather from a Fair-trade Co-operative near Marraketh. His handbags and holdalls, backpacks and travel bags come in a variety of original designs from traditional to contemporary. No chemicals at all are used in the making of these unique bags, the leather is cured using salt, sunlight and natural substances such as shells. Spices, minerals and poppy flowers are used to make the vibrant dyes. A little touch of Moroccan magic has come West! Contact Ahmed: 00353 (0)86 8035579 essaadaoui@eircom.net

	Audrey Huguet ‘Since my young childhood I always loved to draw and create but my parents pushed me to another direction as ‘making a living’ was more important. A few years ago I came to Ireland and fell in love with this wonderful country. The Burren gave me much more than I ever expected very kind people and here I found myself. My friends taught me to be more confident and to listen to my heart as I was shy to show myself and what I really love to do. Doolin Market is a great family and I have been offered, for the first time in my life, the opportunity to express myself through my work and exchange with many people....Welcome to my fairyland.
