Bringing crafting to life!

My name is Rachel, and please consider me your creative cheerleader! Crafting has always meant so much to me throughout my life, and I want to help you to discover the magic too.

As a child who was very shy and awkward, making things alongside others was a way to make connections or escape from the world, depending on how I was feeling. It was something I was good at, could share in, and find common ground with people.

A number of years ago, during some really hard times in my personal life, getting involved in craft activities gave me some time to take my mind away from everything else that was going on. It was a time out, an unofficial therapy with something tangible at the end, and gave me space to build up my strength to carry on.

Being part of a crafty, creative community can be something special. We’re generally a really great group of people! Generous of spirit, eager to share skills and knowledge. I knew I had found my people.

One particular workshop that I attended really lit a spark inside of me. It was a day learning how to create fascinators, using a material called sinamay. Something about this material really caught my imagination; I went home to order supplies straight away and became immersed in the world of millinery.

I enjoy making hats for people, but even more so, I love to help you make your own! When I started to run workshops for millinery skills, I knew I was onto something special. Every workshop was well-received and the feedback was heart-warming and wonderful to hear.

Now I am taking it further by sharing my craft skills with our international community of crafters, helping to spread the joys of the handmade world.
