Honestly I’m still processing Saturday’s market - the whole day was such a blur for me but I truly can’t believe how well it went and how many of you came out to support all of our lovely stallholders! I was absolutely blown away and it truly hasn’t properly sank in yet 😅

To anyone who visited, thank you so much for coming - I really hope you had a great time and went home with lots of lovely treats from our makers. So grateful to anyone who took time out of their day to pop by for a visit and a dilly dally around all the stalls 🌟

To the makers - thank you so much for your kindness all day, and for being so patient with me for my first time organising a market! I was so nervous leading up to it and you all made me feel so at ease during the day! I went home feeling so lucky to have had such an amazing bunch of traders come and take a chance on a first time market, especially this time of year and I couldn’t be more appreciative - you made the market such a success!

I couldn’t have pulled it off without the best team coming to help on the day and eva - thank you so so so much!! I owe you all big time 🫶🏼

And thank you to my Dad for making the a board under some last min pressure from me 🙂‍↔️🥹

Spent yesterday taking it easy and now it’s time to get ready for all the other amazing markets I’m trading at before Christmas ❄️🎄

Thank you SO much 🤍

So excited to announce another one of our food traders! 🧀

Kirsty specialises in gorgeous individual grazing boards, packed with delicious charcuterie and perfect for snacking as you wander the market. She also offers indulgent little pots of cheesecake, which are super yummy! Fresh, flavourful and ideal for a treat on the go, her stall is a must-stop for a delicious snack, or an indulgent treat to bring home for afterwards.

You may have noticed that we've been doing a fair amount of platters lately 👀
And I have to say, I'm absolutely loving it!!
It's allowing me to play about & be a bit creative PLUS, you can actually see what all is in your charcuterie board 🥰

Our regular boards/boxes that we offer are filled to the brim & with the intentions of you potentially setting it out on your own display board when you get home BUT, we are aware that sometimes you just want to unwrap it, set it out & have everyone dig in!

Therefore, if you'd ever like your custom board, Weekender board (£26) or Deluxe Board (£37) displayed on one of our platters instead - party ready - just let us know!
There will be a small uncharge for this as the platters cost a little more & it take a little more of our time to put it together. 🧀
You can also add on a personalisation too, if displaying on a platter 🔥

With 8 blended cheese flavours to choose from & 6 homemade chutneys, we're sure you'll find something you like 😊
And as always, if you have an idea or a favourite cheese that you'd like to use in your board - just say! We're happy to accommodate 🥳

PM for all orders 🩷

‼️ Not available for Christmas as we have limited fridge space‼️

Next availability is:
Friday 21st November (evening collection).
Saturday 29th December (morning collection).

We're in Belfast at Dilly Dally Makers Market on Saturday 22nd with a BUNCH of tasty goodies 😋

Jonny is the mastermind behind Hefty Pizza - serving up seriously good Detroit‑style pizzas from his pop‑up in Carrickfergus and beyond. He’s all about bold flavours, crisp‑crust perfection and big slices you won’t forget in a hurry! 🍕

Catch him at the market this Saturday with the best combo of gooey, golden‑edged pizza goodness, and a friendly smile to boot.

Swipe to see Saturday’s pizza menu - individual slices available if it’s busy so make sure you get down between 11am and 4pm and grab breakfast, lunch or both! The festive special has our name on it 🦃🎄🍕

Let’s meet three more of the lovely makers joining us at Saturday’s market in Carlisle Memorial Church! 🎪

🖊️ 🖊️ Deborah creates prints from her digital iPad drawings, capturing Northern Ireland’s landmarks in vibrant style. Alongside her artwork she offers calendars, cards and decorations - all featuring her signature designs. Whether you’re after a print to hang, a card to send or a festive decoration with local charm, her work brings a touch of Northern Irish spirit to your space.

🍂 .aurelia 🍂 Autumn Aurelia creates whimsical acrylic jewellery inspired by celestial nights, cosy woodland scenes, and the quiet magic of everyday moments. As a disabled and autistic maker who is mostly housebound due to her illnesses, she finds inspiration in the world she sees from her window and the small outings that make seemingly ordinary moments feel magical. Each design is crafted in small batches with love, care, and attention to detail, perfect for Christmas gifting, stocking fillers, or treating yourself to something dreamy 🌙

🪡 🪡 Sarah creates handmade, sustainable products from her studio in County Down - thoughtful, reusable alternatives to single-use items, plus gorgeous gift ideas and beautifully crafted bags. She works with repurposed textiles, remnants and bolt ends, and even prints many of her fabrics using her own linocut designs. From facial pads, sandwich bags and “wee scrubbers” to baby gifts, wash bags and slouchy shoulder bags, every piece is made with care, character and a commitment to reducing waste. Eco-friendly, practical and beautifully designed, Sarah’s stall is full of everyday essentials that feel good to use and even better to gift.

Let’s meet another three of our incredible stallholders coming to next weekend’s market 🫶🏼✨

🪡 .eu 🪡 Adam and Margret are the duo behind Kapwa, a Belfast-based label built around connection, self-expression and doing right by the planet. They were frustrated with clothes that didn’t feel like “them” and brands that didn’t seem to care about origin or impact, so they made their own. Every piece is crafted using renewable materials, ethical manufacturing and is built to last, because sustainability is at the core of their brand. Kapwa takes its name from the Filipino concept of shared identity, recognizing the connection between us as individuals and the greater ecosystem of life.

🧙🏼‍♀️ 🧙🏼‍♀️ Melyssa creates handmade porcelain earrings, homeware and wall pieces - all with her signature spooky, quirky flair. She’s also known as the “furry ni**le lady,” crafting flocked porcelain ni**les in bold, joyful colours that always spark a smile. From ghostly ceramics to cheeky conversation starters, her work is fun, unusual and totally unforgettable.

🌾 🌾 Julie is the maker behind Cut & Dried Flowers, creating beautifully handcrafted dried and faux flower wreaths with a fresh, modern twist. Each piece is made by hand in her East Belfast studio, designed to bring long-lasting colour, texture and charm to your space. If you love unique florals that stand out from the crowd (and stay gorgeous all year round!), Julie’s wreaths are the perfect find.

It’s time to meet another three of the lovely makers joining us at Carlisle Memorial on Saturday 22nd November! 🪿🎀

🔨 🔨 Becca creates chunky, raw and irresistibly quirky jewellery using recycled silver, gold vermeil, reclaimed pearls and semi-precious stones. Each piece is lovingly crafted through the lost wax process, giving it that perfect mix of texture, shine and personality. Designed to be cherished for years, her creations celebrate slow fashion, sustainability and the beauty of thoughtful craftsmanship.

🎀 🎀 Rachael is the creative force behind Sugarlumps by Rachael, where fun, handmade fabric pieces are sewn with love in Bangor, Northern Ireland. From bold, brightly-coloured bum bags and tie-up vests to fluffy XL rainbow scrunchies, she lives for patterns, texture and making you smile. Every item is lovingly made in her studio, often up-cycled, and made to be inclusive of all sizes and genders.

📚 📚

Nuala is the illustrator behind Lacuna Moon, where cosy vibes meet creative journaling. Working from her home studio, she hand-illustrates dreamy designs using Procreate and turns them into beautiful stationery - from notebooks and sticker sheets to bookmarks and more. Inspired by comfort, warmth, and the little joys of everyday life, her creations are filled with autumnal tones and gentle charm. Each piece is made to spark slow, mindful moments and bring a touch of cosiness to your day.
