What do you make?
I sculpt miniature decorative items out of clay, such as key rings, magnets, paperweights and jewellery etc. What inspires you? I live with a condition called osteogenesis imperfecta or brittle bone disease which means I fracture a lot. Sometimes my fractures limit what I can do. I use everything around me to inspire me. For my research I look on the Internet and on social media. I’m in touch with other crafters and they help me on how to use various materials and techniques. |
How did you begin your making journey?
I spent a lot of time in hospitals in bed due to fractures, which led me to crafting. To begin with I experimented with make up; then sketching, painting, and making slimes. This all led up to my clay sculpting and opened up my world of crafting. there is nothing I don’t do or try to do.
What is your favourite thing to make?
I don’t have favourite things to make. I go according to the trends with where my emotions and passion leads me. I really enjoyed making avocados in clay, so I made them into key rings, magnets and even jewellery. At the moment I’m into experimenting mixing clay and resin into jewellery.
Do you ever have crafting disasters?
I have crafting disasters all the time which leads to frustration but I don’t give up. I keep going until I’m satisfied with what I’ve created.
If you had a crafting wish, what would it be?
I would love to have a crafting room where everything would be accessible to me.
