Get to Know

Hi, I'm Lynne Davies. I live in South Wales, in the UK, with mountains behind my house, mountains in front and the sea within a 30 minute drive. It's a beautiful place to be. All my life I've loved to make and create things. I like nothing better than to see a raw material be turned into something useful or beautiful. At the moment I'm obsessed with creating things from wool. Hats, monsters, clothes, rugs... I also have a love for making hula hoops. They have a magical power that makes people smile. You can see my hoops for sale at http://www.hyperloophoop.com.

I am very involved in the circus arts and tutor people in poi, hoop, & juggling. I teach a hoop class once a week and I have started up a circus clubs to encourage complete beginners to come and learn new skills. Both are thriving and we have new members coming along all the time.

I am the Guild Master of the Fiber Arts Guild here on Artfire. You can see some of our work on our Guild Page http://www.artfire.com/guilds/fiber_arts and chat to us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/FiberArtsGuild and twitter @FiberArtsGuild. Come and see what the Fiber Arts are all about.

I am also a member of Artfire UK Guild, Our mission is to encourage all our members to be the best they can be, so they and their businesses can thrive in a very tough market place. A list of our members can be found here, be sure to have a look at what our UK artisans have to offer: www.artfire.com/guilds/artfire_uk/roster

Bio Photo Gallery

Mini felted top hat. I make these in many colours and sizes.

I doodle a lot, as I have a whole bunch of wee creatures in my head that like to be drawn onto paper.

Monsters! Monsters! Monsters! All of them cute and cuddly.... even the Zombies like a hug now and then.

I love making custom orders for my customers. Contact me and let me know what you need.
