I run my own business designing and making jewellery and hats. Broadsheet has kindly featured my work In the past. This weekend I was taking part in a Craft fair in Dublin when a one of a kind Hat worth €200 was stolen from a display. Like many Irish designers I am a very small independent business and having something like this taken is a huge loss. I would be very grateful If anyone happens to see the hat or receive it as a gift could they please contact L Designs on my Facebook page.
