With Christmas just around the corner I thought it would be great to interview a number of Creative Crafters that can offer something unique at this time of year. This week I am delighted to feature the very talented Lois Billington of May B Sew.
Hi for those who don’t know you, could you please tell us a bit about yourself.
Hi I'm Lois Billington. I graduated in 2013 with a foundation degree in costume
construction. I volunteer once a week at a local theatre helping out with the costumes
and am sometimes on stage.
What sort of creative business do you run?
At the moment my business
is based around mini top hats for any event.
What advice would you give to someone who wants to have a go themselves?
My advice would be to
organise yourself. Keep receipts of anything you buy or use in your projects to
sum up your overall price of your item. Add in time and materials together to
make a profit. Organise your time particularly if you’re in either full time or
part time work.
Where can we find you?
Thank you, Lois for taking time out of
your busy schedule to be interviewed. If you are a creative crafter
and would like to be interviewed on a future post in this series please get in
contact.
