Lorette isn\u2019t just one of the co-founders of the much-loved lifestyle festival \u2013 she\u2019s the glue that holds it all together. With the help of caffeine, of course!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love a good cup of coffee. Especially during market week \u2013 when the days are long and stress levels high, we basically run on caffeine! Coffee\u2019s always better when it\u2019s shared, though, so I\u2019m constantly scouting for someone to join me for a quick cuppa.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While organising Tierlantynkies is a huge responsibility, it\u2019s also deeply rewarding. \u201cWe work with so many incredible, creative people \u2013 it\u2019s a privilege,\u201d Lorette says. But this powerhouse creative has more than one passion project on her plate. Twelve years ago, she launched Muse Ladies Boutique, a fashion treasure trove that takes her to Europe every year on a less-glamorous-than-it-sounds buying trip. \u201cIt feels like a treasure hunt. I love every minute!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At home, family is everything. \u201cWe have three children \u2013 two are married with kids \u2013 and my husband is a business owner, so we\u2019re both busy. But we always make time for family.\u201d Once a week, she cooks a hearty meal, and the whole clan gathers around the table. \u201cThe greatest joy in my life right now? Our four adorable grandchildren. They\u2019re my absolute favourite people in the world!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, she has a few favourite stalls at Tierlantynkies. \u201cThese days I spend all my money in the kiddies section. The kids\u2019 clothing and toys are just too gorgeous! I also love buying d\u00e9cor \u2013 one of our vendors makes the most beautiful porcelain coffee cups. I\u2019ve definitely started a collection!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked about a goosebumps moment from the past 15 years, Lorette doesn\u2019t hesitate. \u201cDefinitely our first market after Covid. We were so unsure if people would come. But we had record attendance. I remember walking the grounds, seeing everyone laughing, eating, shopping \u2013 just being together again. It felt like a return to normal, and it was incredibly emotional.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After each market, Lorette admits she crashes \u2013 hard. \u201cWe\u2019re exhausted and sleep deprived. I need some alone time and a few good nights of sleep. If we can, we try to plan a short getaway before starting on the next one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Behind the scenes, there\u2019s far more to the event than meets the eye. \u201cFew people realise the logistics and red tape,\u201d she explains. \u201cSecurity, fire plans, health and safety, engineer certificates, medical services, sound, rubble removal\u2026 And then there\u2019s the unpredictability of load-shedding! It takes meticulous planning \u2013 and still, something unexpected always happens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s not running markets or curating fashion, you\u2019ll find her at her favourite spots around Pretoria. \u201cI love Wood and Fire \u2013 their unusual flavour combinations never disappoint. I also love browsing Hazelwood Village or exploring places like 44 Stanley and Kramerville for inspiration. I avoid chain stores and malls \u2013 give me a unique little shop any day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s also a regular at local markets like Boeremark, Linden Market, and Neighbourgoods in Cape Town. \u201cI stock up on fresh veggies, honey, and free-range lamb directly from the farmer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And when she\u2019s not shopping, Lorette\u2019s doing pottery, painting, arranging flowers for weddings, or tending to her veggie garden. \u201cI recently started playing golf \u2013 but it\u2019s still very challenging,\u201d she laughs. \u201cOh \u2013 and at 58, I can still do the splits!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her ultimate guilty pleasure? \u201cCarrot cake. Moist, nutty, and served with a great cappuccino!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As for what\u2019s in her Kies survival kit? \u201cCoffee, obviously! Comfy shoes, sunblock, plasters, magnesium, immune boosters\u2026 and enough energy to last the week. I always struggle to sleep during the market \u2013 my mind just won\u2019t switch off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What kept her going through the hardest season \u2013 like during the Covid cancellations? \u201cWe had already paid deposits, printed posters\u2026 then had to cancel. It was heartbreaking. We didn\u2019t know if we\u2019d survive. But the support and resilience of our vendors, and their faith in us, kept us going. We had to learn so many new things, from building an online store to filming videos. It was tough &#8230; but we made it.\u201d And thank goodness they did.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ronel Coetzer -The architect of atmosphere<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The woman who makes Tierlantynkies sparkle with soul. At heart, Ronel is a romantic \u2013 someone who finds joy in beauty, celebration, and meaningful moments. It\u2019s this joyful energy that earned her the nickname The Architect of Atmosphere \u2013 a title that captures her role at Tierlantynkies perfectly. \u201cTierlantynkies is the perfect place for me to celebrate the exhibitors and pause for a little joy and fun,\u201d she says. And if you\u2019ve ever wandered through one of the beautifully curated festivals, you\u2019ll know just how much love and thought goes into every detail.<\/p>\n<p>With an incredible eye for aesthetics and a natural instinct for what feels just right, Ronel brings warmth, creativity and cohesion to the festival spaces. \u201cI love celebrating people and making spaces feel welcoming,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s about creating moments \u2013 not just good-looking d\u00e9cor.\u201d Her ability to create mood and meaning has become part of Tierlantynkies\u2019 DNA.<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s not shaping the look and feel of the festival, Ronel is living her creativity in other ways \u2013 whether through travel, friendships, or styling her own space. \u201cI love spending time with friends\u2014having fun, supporting one another, and finding ways to spark creativity together,\u201d she shares. \u201cTo balance creativity with the admin side, I schedule time just for creative work. And I recharge by redecorating my home \u2013 I\u2019m always reimagining spaces!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a regular at the event she helped build, Ronel has her own favourites. \u201cPottery and shoes\u2014that\u2019s where you\u2019ll find me when I have a moment to spare,\u201d she says with a smile. But more than the shopping, it\u2019s the stories that stay with her. One of her most cherished memories involves her daughter, Megan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe day before Tierlantynkies kicked off, Megan\u2014just 13 at the time\u2014decided she wanted to sell flower crowns. She insisted a 1m by 1m stand would be perfect. She took orders non-stop and even had to rope in friends and family to help keep up with the demand. She was a natural from the start.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After a whirlwind event, Ronel\u2019s post-festival ritual is sacred. \u201cAlone time and sleep!\u201d she laughs. \u201cIt\u2019s the only way to recover after the magic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s not all fairy lights and flower crowns. \u201cWhat people don\u2019t always realise is that building something valuable and lasting takes time,\u201d she reflects. \u201cYou have to stay resilient, and learn not to take yourself too seriously.\u201d It\u2019s a grounded reminder that the most beautiful things often come from consistency and care.<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s in need of inspiration or just time to unwind, it\u2019s a road trip with curious, creative people that fills her cup. She also finds joy in visiting other markets like Kamers and the Linden Market. \u201cI love discovering how other creatives express themselves,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re wondering where her creative spark comes from\u2014well, a love of atmosphere has always been part of her personality. \u201cMama Mia! was the theme for both my 40th and 50th birthday parties,\u201d she laughs. \u201cSo I guess that says it all!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her inspiration sources range from the wild beauty of the West Coast and the serenity of nature to Pinterest, her friends, and of course \u2013 the brilliant Tierlantynkies exhibitors themselves. And if Tierlantynkies were a person? Ronel doesn\u2019t hesitate: \u201cShe\u2019s stylish, a little quirky, warm, welcoming \u2013 an Inspiration Station through and through.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and there\u2019s more to this atmosphere architect than you might expect at first glance. \u201cI love Africa and enjoy wild safaris,\u201d she adds. \u201cOne of my most unforgettable adventures was seeing the gorillas in Burundi \u2013 absolutely magical.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From decorating dinner parties to styling large-scale events, from nurturing young creatives to curating festival experiences that feel like home \u2013 Ronel Coetzer lives and breathes creativity. And thanks to her gentle touch and joyful spirit, Tierlantynkies continues to be so much more than just a market. It\u2019s a celebration of makers, moments\u2026 and a little bit of magic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evette Barnard \u2013 The chief chatter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>She might jokingly call herself the \u201cchief non-chatter,\u201d but make no mistake \u2013 Evette is the heart and voice behind every vendor at Tierlantynkies. As the official vendor coordinator, Evette is the first line of communication between the team and the hundreds of creative small businesses who apply to trade at this much-loved market.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI absolutely love getting to know all the stories behind the brands,\u201d she says. \u201cEven though I prefer working behind the scenes, I get to play a part in connecting people with something they love \u2013 and that\u2019s really special.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Evette joined the Tierlantynkies family in 2023, and it was an instant match. \u201cIt was simply a matter of perfect timing from both sides,\u201d she says. \u201cI knew straight away these were my kind of people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although the festival runs twice a year for seven days, Evette says the planning never stops. \u201cWe usually take a few days off to find our homes and families again,\u201d she laughs, \u201cand then we start all over with placements, interviewing new vendors, planning layouts\u2026 it\u2019s nonstop!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A mom of two little ones, Evette values the flexibility that working for Tierlantynkies offers. \u201cOur team meets once a week to catch up and plan, and the rest of the time we each manage our own schedules. It really allows us to keep the balance between family and festival.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her festival shopping habits? \u201cI try to support as many vendors as possible. I always walk away with at least one great fashion find. Jackets are my favourite and if my husband joins, we somehow always leave with a car full of plants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked about her most memorable market moment, Evette doesn\u2019t hesitate. \u201cApril this year was a big one. We moved to a new venue and honestly, right up until the day before gates opened, we were praying it was the right decision. And it was. It was magical. People stayed long after closing time &#8230; they didn\u2019t want to leave. That\u2019s when you know you\u2019ve created something truly special for your community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Once the crowds are gone and the gates are locked, how does she unwind? \u201cI stop talking\u2026 to everyone\u2026 for about a week,\u201d she says with a smile.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the joy and connection the market brings, she\u2019s quick to dispel the idea that it\u2019s all sunshine and craft gin. \u201cPeople think it\u2019s easy and always fun. But it takes a huge amount of work and dedication to build a market people want to return to for 15 years. There are tough conversations and decisions that go on behind the scenes to make sure Tierlantynkies stays fresh, family-focused and upmarket.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So where does The Chief Chatter go to recharge? \u201cWe go camping as often as we can, and I love being on the water \u2013 skiing, boating, just relaxing with my family and close friends.\u201d<br \/>\nAs someone who lives and breathes markets, we had to ask \u2013 what\u2019s her favourite festival to visit? \u201cThat\u2019s like asking me which friend\u2019s child I love more than my own!\u201d she jokes. \u201cEvery good market has something unique. I love the vibe of The Linden Market, really admire the work KamersMakers does to uplift local business, and I always find something lekker to eat at Hazel Food Market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So was she always the \u201cchatter\u201d of the group growing up? \u201cWell\u2026 I was one of four kids, all with strong opinions, so you had to speak up to be heard! My dad always said I could talk myself into (or out of) anything \u2013 if I was just given enough time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the things she treasures most is hearing returning visitors laugh and say \u201cI\u2019m back again\u201d at the gate. \u201cThat kind of loyalty and joy is the ultimate compliment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And if she could teleport anywhere for a break? \u201cI\u2019m not fussy. As long as it\u2019s sunny and there\u2019s delicious food \u2013 I\u2019m happy!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lorette Kunz &#8211; captain of coffee You\u2019ll spot her at every Tierlantynkies with a coffee in hand and a calm kind of chaos twinkling in her eyes.
