Welcome to Craft Giraffe - Eco Friendly Crafts for Kids.
After 20 years of creating eco design, girlwithbeads is evolving... introducing Craft Giraffe! Same eco-friendly ethos - creating kids craft kits & accessories.
I have always been interested in making things and after I received a sewing machine for my 21st birthday there was no stopping me. As a student I began scouring charity shops for materials to experiment with and soon discovered a treasure trove of inspiration. I love the challenge of taking existing items and turning them into something new whilst keeping a sense of what they were before.
As "girlwithbeads" I created a range including unique handmade bags from flat caps, suit jackets and vintage fabrics. T-shirts & hoodies customised with vintage ties and braces that are available for men, women and children. Plus, fun accessories like giant button brooches, bow tie hair clips and bunting necklaces.
Since having a career break to have children my business has evolved into "Craft Giraffe" with a range of fun eco-friendly craft packs. I also run kids craft workshops.
I have had my work featured in various exhibitions and books, and been involved with lots of events and workshops all promoting eco design. I even appeared on BBC1's The Apprentice in 2014, in a task where my Flat Cap Bags were chosen to be sold at an event by the contestants - but that's another story!

Thanks for reading all this and I hope you like my new range!
