A Little About the Maker...

Charlotte from Twin Made is based locally to us in Canton, Cardiff. She is an extremely busy and creative lady who noticed that there was a gap in the market for contemporary, one-off craft classes in the capital, thus Twin Made was born! You always leave her workshops with a finished item, which also promises to be unique and fun. Charlotte recently expanded her business to include these fun kits, so now you can enjoy some crafty fun in your own home.
