my journey from garden to garment
At Arts and crafts made with love, my passion ignited from a simple yet profound desire: to create. The deep satisfaction of crafting something healing and 100% organic, using herbs from my own garden, fuels my spirit. Equally, the joy of transforming humble yarn into a beautiful, wearable garment or a cherished amigurumi toy is what truly lights me up. It's about knowing exactly what goes into every product and the love infused in every stitch.
The magic of nature's bounty
What truly makes my approach special here in New Zealand is our deep connection to nature. I believe in the power of medicinal herbs, many often mistaken for 'weeds', that thrive around us. Knowing their incredible purpose and how they can heal – not just the body and mind, but the spirit too – changes everything. By embracing these natural gifts, you feel more connected with Mother Nature, harnessing her ancient wisdom for your well-being.
Stitched with care, made to last
Beyond my organic remedies, my hands are busy creating beautiful, quality garments and whimsical amigurumi toys. Each piece is born from a simple skein of yarn, transformed into something fashionable or a beloved cuddly companion. I pour immense time, love, and effort into every stitch, ensuring that when you choose an Arts and crafts made with love creation, you're investing in quality and a piece made with genuine care right here in New Zealand.
