About me
I am a forty something divorcee, looking for improvement and change. always been creative, but done a variety of jobs to gain employment experience, from retail to health and fitness, hence great people skills and team ethics.
Ive used my own initiative and worked as self employed when jobs have been scarce, made clothing as diverse as wedding dresses and highland kilts, made and successfully sold burlesque nipple tassels, also designed small accessories and bags from recycled vintage gloves.
Resourceful and adaptable, hardworking, creative, happy.
Looking for an opportunity to follow my dreams.
Take a chance on me.
Projects
