No stranger to a sequin from her time on Strictly Come Dancing, Sara Davies will be bringing plenty of sparkle to Newcastle next month, when she arrives in town with her Craft Your Christmas tour. And the Dragon's Den star is promising festive hacks galore, including tips and trick for even the worst of present wrappers.
It's now been 12 months since proud County Durham lass Sara lit up the ballroom on Strictly, alongside pro partner Aljaz Škorjanec, on what turned out to be the dancer's last year on the show. After making it far on the BBC programme, Sara and Aljaz then teamed up on the Strictly arena tour, winning the first night of its stint in Newcastle.
And now Sara is preparing to take to a different stage in Tyneside, with a very different show, which sees her embrace her number one passion - crafting. While Sara's public profile has sky rocketed, thanks to her appearances on Dragon's Den and Strictly, before TV fame, she was already a successful entrepreneur as founder of Crafters Companion.
