Collection: The Creative Gecko

Location

Hillsborough, NH

I am a fiber artist and sticker designer based in New Hampshire. As a full time mom and part time artist, my days are spent taking care of my baby and crocheting while he is napping. My background is in game design and electronic art, which can be seen in my vinyl stickers. I’ve been developing my specific art interests for over five years now, and I began crocheting in the fall of 2022. I started my business, and joined the Manchester Craft Market, in January of 2023. As for my business, my primary focus is making and designing crochet plushies and patterns. I like to make cute plushies with large eyes, and I hand paint the larger safety eyes that I use. I also offer child-safe crocheted plushies with embroidered eyes, rather than plastic safety eyes. My shelf also offers a couple of wool paintings (needle felted landscapes or animal portraits in an embroidery hoop), as well as vinyl stickers that are hand-drawn and printed by me. I start by drawing the stickers with pen and ink or on a drawing tablet, and then I scan and print these out. I really love getting to focus on my artistic interests and endeavors, and my business allows me to continue doing what I love in a way that helps me to support my family.
