One year later...📖

This Saturday I'll be back at The Cottage Market, almost exactly one year after my very first market.

When I first set up my little table, I was excited, nervous, and had no idea what to expect. I just hoped people would stop by and connect with what I was creating.

A year later, I've met so many wonderful readers, customers, fellow makers, and small business owners. I've learned so much, and become part of a community that has been incredibly supportive along the way.

A huge thank you to and especially to Eimear and Vicky, for believing in small businesses, for giving me that first opportunity, and for creating such a welcoming community for makers 🤍

And thank you to all the fellow stallholders I've met over the past year. One of the loveliest surprises of doing markets has been meeting such talented, supportive people. Running a small business can sometimes feel a little lonely, so having people around who understand the highs, the challenges, and everything in between means more than you know 🌷

Most of all, thank you to everyone who has stopped by my stall, followed along online, placed an order, shared a kind word, or supported my little bookish world in any way.

It truly means the world.

If you're nearby, I'd love for you to stop by and say hello. Whether you're looking for your next read, a gift for a fellow book lover, or simply fancy a browse, I'd love to see you there 🤍

1000 fellow book lovers 📖 ❤️

I honestly never imagined that so many people would connect with my little bookish corner of the world when I first started creating these Blind Date bundles.

What began as a small creative idea has slowly turned into the loveliest community of readers and I’m so incredibly grateful for every follow, message, recommendation, kind word, order, and all the support along the way ❤️

There have been lots of hours spent researching stories, creating covers, handmaking bookish ephemera, packing orders, attending markets and overthinking absolutely everything 😅 but getting to create these little surprises for fellow readers has made every second worth it.

Thank you for being here, for supporting handmade and small businesses and for letting me keep creating meaningful little gifts for people who love books as much as I do 🌷

1000 of you still feels unreal
And to each of you...1000 thank yous ❤️📖

I had such a beautiful day at The Cottage Market Drogheda 💛📚

From those who came specially for a Blind Date with a Book to the ones who stayed for chats and shared their love of reading, you made the day feel truly special.

It means so much to see people connect with what I create, from the books themselves to the little handmade, bookish pieces.

I’m incredibly grateful to be part of such a warm, welcoming market. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, supported, and shared a little piece of your reading world with me .

What a weekend it’s been 🤍

Two days at The Cottage Market on Sunday and Monday, celebrating St Patrick’s weekend here in Drogheda, and while the weather definitely kept us on our toes, there was still so much magic in it all.

Through the wind and rain, it was so lovely to see familiar faces again and to meet so many of you in person. Those little chats, shared smiles, and moments of connection are what make it all so special.

Running a small handmade business isn’t always easy, but weekends like this remind me exactly why I do it.

Feeling very grateful this St Patrick’s Day 💚

Thank you for supporting local and being part of this journey with me.

Today was one of those lovely days that reminds me why I started Accessories by Lipa in the first place 🥹

Spending the day at the at , surrounded by talented local makers and kind customers, was truly special. Every chat, every smile, and every person who stopped by the stall means the world to a small business like mine.

Thank you to everyone who came along, supported local, and took home a little piece of my handmade creations. Your support keeps this dream growing, and I’m so grateful for it 💕

Already looking forward to the next one ☺️

I’ve always believed books are a kind of love story 🤍📖

The way they hold us in different seasons, the way they feel like company on quiet evenings…

So today, I’m celebrating that.

Happy Valentine’s Day to the readers 🤍

Mornings have urgency.

Nights have time.

Some read when the world wakes.

Others, when the world sleeps.

There's no right or wrong.

There's the moment when the book calls you.

Which one's yours?

Things only book lovers understand 👇🏻

1. Smelling the book before you start reading it
2. Feeling sad when it ends
3. Refusing to go out because "you're at a good chapter"
4. Having dozens of bookmarks but ending up using an old receipt
5. Talking about the character as if they were real

I'm guilty of all of these 🙋🏻‍♀️

How many have you done? 👇
