Hello and Welcome
Hello and welcome to my brand spanking new website! I hope you enjoy browsing through all of my work and my stories.
As a thank you for supporting me and my new venture, I will be giving you a handmade card with your bird, creature or bloom containing its own unique verse with every purchase.
You will notice a link to my Etsy shop at the top of the home page. This will be my treasure trove, where you will find limited editions, discounted end of line items and special offers. I’ll make sure to let you know if something exciting is going into my Etsy shop.
I’ll be popping up on here fairly regularly to let you know about new products, events I’ll be taking part in, my amazing suppliers ( I’m still saving for that holiday in the Hebrides), tales of birds and creatures and the odd fun project that you can make at home.
They say it takes a community to bring up a child, well I’ve discovered that it takes a community to build a business. I’d like to say thank you to the following people for lending a hand in the creation of this website. Hilary Chadwick for the amazing lifestyle shots, Kim Metcalf for the emergency cushion photography studio and most aesthetic drive in Calderdale, Sam Bullock at the fabulous ‘Hotcakes’ for fab photos and a wonderful day surrounded by vintage mannequins and glorious textiles, Craig Shaw and Fiona Pattinson for photos and advice, my mum for the trip down memory lane, Liz Harrison and all at Harrisons of Burley for the fabric photoshoot and amazing tweed, Rach Red and Kate Rhodes, two amazing Hebden Bridge makers who’ve given me great advice on doing this properly, Toby Parsons for keeping me sane throughout this process (well kind of!), Dai, Jo and David, my lovely neighbours who let me take photos in their stunning gardens and finally the incredibly patient Ian Green for building this fabulous site.
