About the Blog

‘Creative, naturally!’ is a blog dedicated to a happy and healthy creative lifestyle – from knitting and sewing a handmade wardrobe to handmade skincare and wholesome nourishing food.  My aim is to document and inspire, to support and create loving community.

About the Author

One of my favourite childhood memories is of my grandmother draping huge swathes of muslin over the dining room table and my mother, grandmother and I sitting there for hours happily chatting away painting that plain fabric with a million different flowers and leaves.   That fabric became bags and dresses, covers for favourite journals and little bookmarks.  It’s not surprising I got the ‘creating’ bug- I grew up in a family that collected shells from the beach and decorated the garden with them, that painted the stairs with seascapes and portraits of colourful abstract ladies.  I ate off of plates and bowls that my grandmother had fired and glazed herself, and was dressed in clothes that my mother lovingly made for me from her own favourite dresses.  Since I was old enough to pick up a pen I’ve been creating in so many ways and to this day I’m not happy unless I have at least 3 creative projects going at once.  Often this is knitting, but I also love to paint, to sew, to cook and create natural skincare products among so many other things.
