About Elvet & Bailey
Elvet & Bailey offer the best gift items from a growing community of more than 40 artists, crafters and makers. Coming together with a “strength in numbers” attitude allows the business to support independent, local creatives by providing high street selling opportunities in the heart of Durham City.
“Think of us as the best local craft market but on the high street and open seven days a week.” Elvet & Bailey is owned and operated by Creative Spaces Durham CIC – a social enterprise designed to use its profits and assets to benefit the community.
“Our aim is to support, develop and benefit small scale creative businesses focusing on handmade gifts, as well as providing an environment where people of all ages and abilities can come together to develop craft skills.”
The shop features everything from wall art and prints from local artists to hand-made kitchen accessories, pottery, jewellery and bath and body items such as aromatherapy oils.
Elvet & Bailey also run craft classes and workshops. From art to macramé, paper cutting to wreath making, there is always a variety of events.
