This month's Clever Crafter is long time coop member Lisa of Dress Up Kids.
1. Where are you based?
Bargara Beach, QLD
2. What was your first job? How did that influence your future?
Retail Assistant. I was trained by an amazing couple who really excelled at customer service and gave me a great grounding in understanding and respecting people.
3. What lead you to do what you are doing now (in relation to the handmade items you are making now)
When I had my children I was deeply shocked at just how much the technical age that we live in has shaped and influenced our Little People … I simply wanted them to enjoy the fun and innocent side of being a child.
4. If you were to try a new form of crafting what would it be?
Knitting
5. Who do you have a craft crush on?
Sher Christopher – who is an amazing English Paper Craft Artist. He makes awe inspiring emotive paper figurines
6. What is your favourite item you make? I love the fact that our Magical Mermaid costume makes so many (mostly little girls) feel very special.
7. What was the last handmade thing you have purchased and from where?
A new stamped wedding band for my husband from a very talented Etsy seller in the US for our 10th wedding anniversary … the last one has not left his finger and had been abused terribly!
