Christmas Is Coming

November 17, 2015November 16, 2019 John - Gentleman Crafter5 Comments

I was deliberating whether to hand make Christmas this year (bit late to still be procrastinating I know) when along came Georgina Ford.

Georgina is setting up a new creative business called Designs By Georgina and she asked me if I would have a go with some of her product range and see what I thought.

Never one to turn down a creative request I said yes please!
