Advent Day 20 – Andrea McShane

With market after market lined up this festive season, Andrea managed to slot us into her busy schedule and tell us what she gets up to when she’s not creating stunning jewellery or manning a stall.

What's your favourite thing about the festive season?

The atmosphere leading up to Christmas.

The lights, the cold, the dark evenings and the sparkle of the festivities.

My children get so excited.

Name one thing that you'd encourage others to do over this festive season.

Shop independent.

And don't rush or panic, just enjoy the atmosphere.

What does MerseyMade mean to you?

It's an opportunity to showcase my art in the city centre.

I'm a part of an incredible creative family also, it's wonderful.
