I’ve had lots of new followers recently, especially meeting so many of you at Halloween crafts! So thought it was about time I said HI again.

I’m Kirsty 👋🏼 I set up Make, Do & Trend as my final project studying Fashion at University for the Creative Arts - UCA (it used to be called a different name, but the main idea of craft workshops based on trends was there!)

I managed fit the business around working for I think 9 years, but after lockdown and my second child, I left my part-time job to run Make full time (around the kids anyway 😉) and haven’t looked back!

I run craft workshops for adults, children and pre-schoolers as well as an after-school club- everything from slime to hen parties! I also have a range of craft kits based on my most popular workshops ✂️

A few facts about me:
👙I used to work in merchandising at Debenhams head office in the lingerie department, in the winter we used to wear the sample dressing gowns at our desks 😂
🍕My favourite food is pizza, Tesco frozen, Dominos, homemade from my pizza oven I’m really not fussy, I love them all! 😉
🌴We love to travel as a family and will be taking our 4th cruise next year! We just love that we get to visit so many places in one trip 🚢
💰I love a discount, my friends call me the coupon Queen 👑 I will often share deals I have seen or cheap days out with the kids so keep your eyes peeled 👀
💒 My husband and I met at a friend’s wedding and secretly dated whilst they were on their honeymoon!
🎶 I pretty much listen to the SIX soundtrack every time I clear up after a workshop.
