Picture
I have been crafting in one form or another as long as I can remember. I discovered jewellery making in the early 80's and although there were lots of beads out there, they didn't satisfy my creative urges. I just wanted to make my own so I started painting base beads and applying textures to them Then I discovered polymer clay and light bulbs went off in my head - I've never looked back!! I started selling my creations at local fairs and soon a small business was born.

I was living in Canada when the BPCG was formed, but as soon as I returned to the UK I joined the guild and subsequently have attended several of their workshops. I have been on the committee for several years and had been running the Guild website for a few years until I managed to convince Penny to take over! I am still on the committee and have remained to help out where I can.

I live in rural Dorset with my husband. I can be found at local craft shows where I often demonstrate polymer clay cane or bead making.
