Let's inspire together! Whether you're looking for a bespoke workshop for adults, special event activation for your brand, or an artful craft designed for your publication or social media, you're in the right spot! As a former art teacher and creative multi-hyphenate, there are many unique hands-on experiences that we can make a reality.
Celebrating a milestone or holiday? Want to launch your latest product in a special way? Looking to educate or inspire your audience with an easy-to-make craft? Dreaming up an accessible and beautiful craft for all skill levels is one of my most favourite things to do as a craft designer, and all I need to get started is some basic information about your event/project needs. So have a think on what you might like and go on and email me on my Contact page!

Where technology and crafting meet! The joy I have for electronic cutting machine crafts is a big one as it appeals to all skill levels and all occasions. From iron-on (or heat transfer vinyl) creations to cardmaking to making home decor to personalising gifts, the possibilities are endless with a Cricut™ cutting machine. Please see the Workshops page for my upcoming Cricut workshops and free Cricut x Hobbycraft in-store events.
As an official Cricut UK Ambassador, you get the knowledge and experience from a handpicked Cricut-approved expert with every workshop. So I guess you could say you have an insider showing you all the tricks! I like to think that's a pretty cool gold star to wear!
NEW TO CRICUT? Cricut™ is a smart electronic cutting machine that works with an easy-to-use app on desktop/mobile/laptop to help you design and personalise almost anything. Included in workshop fees, I bring the machines, project materials, tools, and all the bits and bobs for a gorgeous finished project to take home to be enjoyed. Everyone will leave confident and excited with their new makes and hopefully a desire to learn more about this modern way of crafting.
Are you a hospitality venue that would like me to come in to host a Cricut workshop for your customers and guests? There are oodles of marketing reasons why this popular craft will be well-received with your adult patrons! For retail venues, drop-in craft sessions make for wonderful foot traffic and sales opportunities. Contact me for more information on booking your customised event.
When emailing via the Contact page, please include your preferred theme (e.g., Christmas, Mother's Day, garden, wedding, et cetera) or general gist of what you would like accomplished, estimated number of guests, and potential calendar dates. At your venue, please confirm electrical outlets are also accessible. I custom create workshops with the venue's resources in mind, and I'm happy to tailor a library of projects to fit your marketing plans.
Since 2016, I've loved working with Cricut in the United States through online wedding content creation, representing the wedding niche at media events in New York City, teaching at the 2018 Mountain-Make-A-Thon conference in Salt Lake City, Utah, supporting and helping at U.S. City Events around the country in 2017, and hosting local in-store activations for new Cricut products. It's been a really fun adventure that I'm excited to continue here in the UK now with the Cricut UK Ambassador team.
Throughout the 10+ years in my editorial career, I have also loved working with well-respected American wedding and lifestyle brands such as Etsy, Keurig, Braun, Pottery Barn, Rust-Oleum, Martha Stewart, Williams-Sonoma, DecoArt, Keds, and many more. And in my photography career, I designed and led styled wedding photography workshops in Las Vegas, Hawaii, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Florida, Virginia, the UK, and Mediterranean Sea (it was an onboard cruise workshop!). It's been a great journey so far!
