Nice to spot the wings I made in the Summer, on display at school when I went to the Christmas Fayre!

Super flattered to be invited to make wings for Oberon and Titania, for Stivichall Primary School's Year 6 production of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. For Tuesday next week! Watch this space!

A little note about how I see this working. I will charge for materials, plus a nominal making up fee, depending on what is required. For example, a little dress made from a metre of poly cotton, approximately £5. I won't be charging an hourly rate - I am working from home, my overheads are minimal and it is something I love doing.

For schools, charities, other good causes, I may consider offering my services in exchange for a public mention or thanks. Cost of materials would normally still be chargeable, but please enquire if you want to know more.

I can make costumes for anybody, but in summary, I think children especially love having something made just for them. I want to make this possible for them, and affordable for their parents.
