The Barn Emporium near Petersfield is full of arts, crafts and handmade goods from local artisans and dealers. My stock there mostly comprises decorative items, bird feeders and hangers.
Hello! I’m the Andy in MadeByAndy and everything here is designed and hand built by me. I have developed a range of products based on two of my many interests - barbecuing and gardening. I have been able to bring a personal insight into the designs and the benefits they bring about whether it’s grilling a home-grown lamb steak to perfection or keeping unruly hollyhocks upright. Enjoy perusing the range and do keep coming back as more designs will be added. Better still, join my mailing list for updates and follow me on Instagram.
