What are your hobbies?

I like to snowboard, run with my dog and drink G&T's down the pub with friends.

What are your favorite crafts and what's your craft space like?

I love to transform things, to upcycle and revamp the discarded & unloved into something more beautiful and personal. Whether they be old suitcases, furniture or clothes.

I don't have a dedicated craft space in the summer I craft in the garden and in the winter, I have a tendency to take over the whole house. In the dining room I have a cocktail come craft cupboard.

What do you craft along to?

I love to listen to absolute 80's on the radio.

What was the first project you ever made?

I can't remember the first thing I made, but I do remember in primary school I was always pimping my desk caddy with lights and fancy decorations.

What are your favorite items to make?

As I've already mention I love to upcycle and one of my favourite things to work with is old jeans. I have been called the "denim whisperer" in the past.

Which other craft blogs do you love to read?
