A POPULAR market is set to make a festive return to the Borders.

The Makers Market will be back at the Borders Textile Towerhouse, in Hawick, on November 29 and 30, from 10am to 4pm.

Visitors will have the chance to shop for 'high-quality', handcrafted goods, supporting local artisans.

This year’s market promises a wide variety of items for sale, from jewellery and artwork to candles, ceramics, clothing and homeware.

The market also features a gift shop with a collection of special products designed for unique holiday gifts.

Alongside shopping, the market offers a 'range' of family-friendly activities.

Young children can participate in the Book Bug sessions on Friday, November 29, at 2pm and Saturday, November 30, at 11am.

Free self-led Christmas crafts will also be available for kids, with an option to learn festive embroidery techniques for a small fee.

A 'highlight' of this year’s Makers Market is an exclusive exhibition of Ann Smith’s felted pictures, on display in the Towerhouse's Exhibition Room.

Smith’s floral and landscape scenes, crafted using wool, are expected to attract art lovers and visitors.

Live Borders hosts a range of exhibitions, events, and activities to support local talent and creativity.

A spokesperson for Live Borders said: "The Makers Market is a perfect opportunity to get into the holiday spirit while discovering beautiful, one-of-a-kind pieces and enjoying a day out with the whole family."
