Random Facts About You?

Im beyond terrified of cows i have dreams about them in my house climbing the stairs on a regular basis lol my boyfriend thinks its hilarious.

Im a well built girl but i love to run and i mean i really love to run lol

My not very good claim to fame (not really mine either ) is that my auntie went on a date with ozzy osbourne when they were young.

If i could live on one food for the rest of my life it would be chedder cheese altho my tummy wouldnt thank me lol.



What got you started crafting?

Iv been crafting in some sense my entire life.My mum has always encouraged me to do whatever i want in crafts and i thank her for giving me the confidence to not just settle with a normal 9-5 job because i know inmy heart i would be miserable.



What is your source of inspiration?

I love fabric and i think the amazing designs that people create are sort of inspiration in themselves really. I usually buy the fabric for the print or colour then decide what im going to do with it.



What have you made recently?

Iv been very successful with my ruffle front make up pouches so i decided to draft a pattern for a coin purse with the same ruffle and i think they turned out lovely and i hope everyone with like them as much as they seem to of liked the make up pouches.
Im very proud of the craftmenship of my items and i will admit im abit anal when it comes to items if the item isnt absolutly perfect then i will start again. My reputation counts on selling a product that is as perfect as i can make it.





Where do you sell your crafts presently?

I have an Etsy shop that im very proud of and i also sell through facebook,twitter and my blog. Im currently searching out the possibility of stocking my items in shops in the UK aswell.



Why are handmade crafts important to you?

I actually hate the highstreet i know it sounds harsh but i really do,everything is the same and everyone wears the same outfit there is a complete lack of personality in the fashion industry today i would rather spend good money on 1 item of beautifully hadmade clothing than £20 on a whole bag of crap from the highstreet and dont even get me started on the ethics of the highstreet lol.
I guess i just appreciate things more if there handmade.
