Crafty Classes

I have always had a passion for teaching, especially for something I’m passionate about. As I love all aspects of crafting, learning many techniques from my Mother and Grandmother as well as teaching myself, it has always been a desire of mine to pass my skills onto others. As you know from my ‘New Tricks’ blog,… Continue reading Crafty Classes

New Tricks – Kumihimo

September 3, 2016August 27, 2016 elisaetemadLeave a comment

With a generally creative childhood, GCSEs in both Art and Graphics, A-Levels in Art & Textiles not to mention an Art Foundation and BA Hons in Textile Crafts you’d think there wouldn’t be many art techniques I’d yet to try. You’d be wrong! Each month Kim of Darn It Workshops runs two sessions at Crafty HQ for Tea &… Continue reading New Tricks – Kumihimo

4th Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas

August 20, 2016August 20, 2016 elisaetemadLeave a comment

Recently I wrote my own definitive Wedding Anniversary gift list, though I’ve decided to present an alternative for the 4th Wedding Anniversary. It is sometimes referred to as the Fruit and Flowers year and initially I overlooked this as I sell neither fruit nor flowers! Thanks to the help of a particularly lovely customer (one who… Continue reading 4th Wedding Anniversary Gift Ideas

Why Art Loves Huddersfield…

June 4, 2016June 5, 2016 elisaetemadLeave a comment

…and why you should too! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, sometimes it does take an outsiders perspective to see what is so great about where you live!

An open letter to Kirklees Council

May 7, 2016May 7, 2016 elisaetemad2 Comments

After seeing yet another plea from an independent business in Huddersfield to help them survive (the 3rd this year that I know of), hearing complaints and comments from customers regarding the bus gates and noticing a distinct decrease in footfall myself I have drafted this letter to Kirklees Council.
