We Make London: A Camden Lock Market Event

9162690 Camden Lock is easily one of my favourite places to be. Their eclectic street markets, shops, restaurants and bars make this one of the most interesting areas to spend the afternoon. So, naturally, I am extremely excited to tell you about the We Make London's market event located in Camden Lock’s Middle Yard. When we at The Amazing Blog learned of this event, I couldn't wait to find out more. They run all summer long to showcasing talented designers and creators.  Occuring every first and third Friday these markets are the perfect way to spend a weekend, at least as long as the sun continues to shine!
