For the eighth consecutive year, the Thelma Hulbert Gallery offers visitor’s the chance to snap up some amazing designer maker gifts for friends, family - or just as a treat for themselves - in our annual 'Present Makers' designer maker showcase.

Present Makers 2012 provides the perfect opportunity to browse for refreshingly different gifts in the comfortable surroundings of Thelma Hulbert’s former home, a grade II listed Georgian villa in a leafy corner of Honiton town. With fresh filter coffee and biscuits constantly available in the THG refreshment room, Present Makers 2012 aims to take the drudgery out of the annual festive frenzy of gift shopping

This year several old favourites are welcomed back – including Tim Oldham whose elegant fragranced wood wardrobe hangers were very popular in 2011 – together with new discoveries such as funky fabric ‘Oddbods’ by Nikki Hargood, elegant Japanese-inspired ceramics by Trevor Lillistone, and jewellery made from recycled materials by Sophie Meseg. Cathy King and Emma Molony from Exeter Phoenix’s Double Elephant Print Workshop are also showing examples of work.
