Items will include mugs, hangers, stationary and necklaces, among a variety of other items, all of which will be available for purchase from between £1 and £100.
By carrying a collection of artisan designs, The Garage Sale encourages consumers to think about supporting local talent with an alternative way to purchase gifts for the Christmas season.
