So, as I mentioned already on the homepage, I first discovered polymer clay in April 2008, and instantly fell in love! Art has always been a passion of mine, ever since I was a toddler and used to squish up plasticine and splat paint all over the floor. Up until then, I had focused a lot of my spare time on art - particularly portrait drawing. Now, fun as this was, I did feel like it got a bit repetitive after a while, and I really needed something to do that was just as creative, but allowed me to use my imagination - to experiment with colour, and most importantly to learn! I felt like I knew all that there was to know about drawing, and all that all I could do in order to get better was practice, practice, practice. Not something that appealed to me. So making polymer clay jewellery seemed perfect, and I want to carry on doing it forever :)

So, now you've discovered a bit about how I first got into polymer clay, how about you read a little about me as a person? I'm a "lone wolf" when it comes to running my business, so this section will be pretty brief - but i'd like to introduce myself!
