My name is Jacqueline. I started my craft classes and gift shop in 2016 with one simple aim – to pass on my love and knowledge of crafts in a relaxing, fun and inclusive way through a range of accessible workshops, craft kits, handmade gifts and craft supplies. I truly believe there is a creative outlet for everyone . Once you find your ‘thing’ it will bring you many hours of joy and relaxation. We live in such a fast paced society and finding a little time to craft and be creative will bring you lots of benefits. It’s great for your wellbeing and this is what I want to share with you.
