The team at Louth’s Local Enterprise Office say they are proud to support five exceptional creative entrepreneurs who will showcase their talent and innovation at Showcase 2025. Taking place at the RDS Dublin from Sunday 19 to Tuesday 21 January 2025, Showcase is Ireland’s premier international event for craft, design, and giftware, attracting buyers from across the globe.

“Showcase is a vital opportunity for local creatives to connect with international buyers and share their unique stories and products,” explains Sarah Mallon of Local Enterprise Office Louth. “This year’s participants highlight the incredible talent we have here in Louth, and we’re proud to see them represent our region on such a prominent stage.”

Among the participants is Lana Dullaghan, whose Meaningful Home collection blends timeless styling with modern sensibilities. From elegant linen tableware to cozy wool throws, Lana’s designs bring a sense of personal warmth and charm to every home. Her work, all created in Ireland, can be explored further at lanadullaghandesigns.com.

Maureen Hoey, founder of mojo&co, will showcase her thoughtfully designed range of wellness journals and personal development tools. These products aim to empower people to live intentionally, build positive habits, and feel more grounded in their daily lives. Learn more about Maureen’s inspiring creations at mojoandco.ie.

For children and families, Emma Duffy of My Forever Tooth Fairy has created a magical experience that reimagines the tooth fairy tradition. Her beautifully designed gift set includes a keepsake box, a Forever Tooth Fairy doll, and a heartwarming storybook. The collection can be viewed at myforevertoothfairy.com.
