Introductions

My name is Jenni and I'm an artist, I have always been an artist, witnesses tell me I was drawing before I could talk. My name is Jenni and I'm a fidget. Being this fidgeting artist I have never managed to settle down into one discipline, I have tried my hand at painting, sketching, graphic design, fashion and sculpture to name but a few.

This summer I have managed to be a bit more controlled and have discovered the Joy of Felt. (Well I say joy, I actually hate the stuff, the feel of it sets my teeth on edge, but I love the end result so I suffer for my art.) I have spent the past 6 weeks or so crafting intricte felt brooches, when I had made so many that the pouches in my sewing box were bursting at the seems I decide it was time to send them on their merry way and so http://www.folksy.com/shops/PositivelyThrifty was born.

This Blog is mainly to document my shop, my love of craft and art, a place for me to let you know about artists or crafters that I love, and maybe, if you're lucky, entries about my guinea pigs.

But what about this fidgeting artist?! I hear you cry!!

Well, My name is Jenni, I am recently married and live with my husband, two Chinese hamsters (Julian and Wanda) and two guinea pigs (Noah and Logan) we all live in a little house in Hull, England and life is sweet.
