Story

Hi, my name is Jo. I love learning crafts, especially the more traditional ones like macrame and crochet, and then designing and crafting my own modern take on these. I absolutely love the process of making each piece and I am always super excited and proud of the things I create. My "work space" is anywhere I can find a clear area in my home amongst the child related detris and my "work day" usually starts at 7:30pm when the kidlets are asleep, but that's how we roll and it works!

I take inspiration from the masses of beautiful magazines and online blogs that are around and hopefully I am providing something that is on trend but personal; not a throw away object but something you can appreciate and enjoy. I am a bit fan of texture made from natural fibres, (and plants!) as a design element in interior decorating and like to focus on how my pieces can add this to interior designs.

I hope you enjoy my handiwork as much as I have enjoyed designing and crafting them for you!
