I am super excited to be featuring Crafty Fox!
Name: Jaqueline
Nickname(s): The Crafty Fox
Hometown: Rockhampton, Australia
Currently In: London, UK
Website/Blog Address: http://craftyfox.wordpress.com
Shop Address: Coming soon!! Keep looking at the blog for updates.
Favorite Drink: Cranberry Juice, straight up. Haha.
Favorite Show: I don’t have TV as the reception is bad where I live but if I’m around at the right time a little ‘Murder, She Wrote’ will always sucker me in!
Favorite Hobby: Knitting. I take it everywhere with me at the moment.
Where would you like to see your craft, hobby, business go this year: Finally opening an online shop before Easter is my main goal! I also want to volunteer more for organisations working with young kids and people with learning disabilities. It’s something I’ve done in the past and found very rewarding and satisfying. Oh, and I want to become a supreme knitter like Vivianna and my mum!
Current Obsession: Anything to do with wool, especially certain shades of Noro. Me = Woman Obsessed.
Secret People Don't know about you: I used to have 13 piercings (I’m down to 4 now) and I have 6 tattoos. Oh, and I sleep with my teddy bear when my boyfriend is away (I’ve had her since I was born and her name is Teddy…how original I know, hehe)
I dream about: Owning a bricks and mortar shop selling fantastic crafty goodness made by people I know and being able to see my Meme (grandmother), who lives in Australia, and sitting down to just talk and knit together.
Secret Crush: Jason Schwartzman.
What made you want to start your shop/blog/website:
I had an urge just under a year ago
to start a craft group and really wanted to document it. The Crafty
Foxes was born and so I set up a blog to be able to keep track of what
we did each meeting and what inspired me. I never expected anyone to
read it except my family and the other Crafty Foxes!!
How would you describe what you sell/blog: I would describe the things I blog about as my opinion on craft, life and everything. And what I’m currently obsessed with. The things I will soon sell are little pieces of me – working with textiles in any form is something I’ve always done and been interested in. I’m no designer but I hope that people appreciate that I make each item with love!
Favorite Item in your shop currently: A staple will be my pom-pom headbands. I’m obsessed with pom-poms and love these!
