How did you get started/what made you start your own business?
For about the last 10 years I had been very unsettled. I never really had the confidence to go and do what I really wanted to do. Having cancer was a kick up the arse for me. It was a bad time but I got some really positive stuff out of it. I started a fashion and costume design course when I finished my treatment and after making all my family and friends their Xmas presents they said I’d be mad not to start something up. This really motivated me to start the boutique and I’m so happy I did. I think life’s too short to be unhappy. I’m not money motivated and would rather love what I do, and not earn big bucks, than the other way round.
Do you personally handmake all your items or do you also have help?
I personally do it yes.
How can you be contacted?
[email protected], my facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/ForestElf11 or website.
Anything you would like to add/message to customers?
I make custom made things and commissions, feel free to contact me with something you would like making. All my fabrics are up on the website.
