Betty’s Bits n Bobs
Hi, I am a self taught quilter and this is my hobby. I love producing quilts and I find it extremely therapeutic, especially after a long week at work.
I am more than happy to take orders and these can be personalised if required.
I am also now looking at car accessories as well, such as dog beds/mats as well as seatbelt pads again, all can be personalised.
Botanica Stitches
Hi, I’m Ieva and I love making and wearing scrunchies! I am an NHS keyworker and making scrunchies is one of my favourite hobbies!
I love up-cycling and being sustainable, therefore most of my scrunchies are made using thrifted fabrics or purchased from local small businesses (let’s support each other!).
You will find satin, velvet, funky and simple scrunchies, these can be made as oversized scrunchies or smaller to suit your hair. All orders come wrapped in pink tissue paper and ribbon, and a thank you note or a card (with a special message if you’d like).
Thank you so much for checking out my products, and feel free to use my Etsy link to order ❤️
