I Used To Be Craft

Creative transformations of up-cycled and pre-loved materials into unique home and gift-wares

So you would like to know a little about me...I make in my craft room, under threat from being lost under my acutely leaning fabric stash (I just can't can resist another piece of vintage floral fabric) and a growing stack of boxes of important, "can't possibly thrown away thingy ma bobs".
I love to explore what materials can do so my work covers many disciplines. I work with pop can metal, old clothes and vintage fabrics and wood too. It means I never get bored and I hope that I communicate my enthusiasm to those I meet at makers markets and workshops. Its important too that we understand that there are limited resources here on our beautiful earth so I like to get people to think about our impact on it too.
I think its better to reduce, reuse or recycle and I hope you do too. x
