Essex and Borders Crafters is a voluntary, not for profit association, of genuine local craft workers based in Essex and the counties of East Anglia and Southeast England.
For Visitors:
The objective of this website is to provide an online reference point for the location of various crafts, both traditional and modern, across the Anglia region. Whether you wish to purchase quality locally crafted items, are looking for speakers or craft demonstrators for your local club or society meetings, or genuine craft workers to take space at your village or community craft fair, this is the place to look. Many of the craft subscribers to this site are former members of the now disbanded Essex Craft Guild, providing a continued guarantee of the high standard of their workmanship.
For Crafters:
If you are a genuine craft worker yourself, either professional or talented amateur, and are keen to promote your skills and products to a wider audience, we can offer the online presence that you have been looking for. Essentially, we offer affordable space on a craft dedicated web based directory, with the freedom to edit and update your information and photographs as required. The site is managed by a professional website manager and development team, to ensure maximum online visibility, leaving you free to pursue and develop your craft without the time consuming worry and cost of maintaining your own website. If, on the other hand, you already have your own website, promoting it here, with an appropriate link, would further enhance your online visibility.
