I’ve always loved making things. From a really young age, I used to sketch out designs for my own little fashion brand and my Grandma would help me turn the ideas into actual clothes on her sewing machine. Not long after that came clay cake toppers, buying and selling One Direction phone cases and loads of other random little business ideas along the way. Looking back, I think I was always trying to find a creative hobby and a way to make things that felt fun and exciting to me.
That naturally led me into studying 3D Design at the University of Salford and eventually into a career in graphic design, where I’ve worked across retail, ecommerce and brand-led businesses on everything from social media campaigns and websites to packaging, print and large-scale advertising. Alongside that, I started creating my own cards and prints in my spare time, originally under a different name, simply because I enjoyed it. What started as a creative side project slowly grew through online orders, makers’ markets and lots of trial and error until it became something much bigger.
