About craisymissdaisy

Craisymissdaisy is a UK based handicraft website specialising in felt iron-on letters, numbers & snowflakes, as well as bunting, notebooks & journals.  The notebooks & journals are on my other website Billy & Ralph .

How did craisymissdaisy start?

I have always loved sewing and crafting and one of my earliest memories of sewing, apart from sewing my project to my skirt, is making a binca square with lots of different colour stitches in the infants at primary school.  I think I was only around 5 or 6 but from then I was hooked.

I started craisymissdaisy around 2011 when I was looking for some letters to iron-on to some Christmas sacks but I couldn’t find what I was looking for.  I found the perfect letters, discovered some wonderfully pretty fabrics and so the journey began. 

The story so far...

The Cottage Chic 5 cm letters were the letters that started it all.  I remember spending forever looking at which fabrics to use but decided that some from the Tanya Whelan Darla collection would compliment them perfectly.  I also added a couple of felt colours, a few mixed patterned fabrics and over the years I increased the number of alphabets I had, as well as the selection of fabrics and felts.  

A few years into my journey I started to make bunting as well.  I made my first piece of bunting as a thank you present for my Son’s teacher and for friends and family.  It’s still fun to make and I love that no two pieces are the same.  After the bunting came the website and after that came the notebooks, which is where the craisymissdaisy story began to change.

What does 2023 have in store for craisymissdaisy?

At the beginning of 2023 I decided to stop making fabric letters and switch to felt letters and numbers only.

Fabric letters have been a big part of my life for the past 12 years and I am so very grateful for them.  As much as I love all the pretty fabrics, the letters and numbers are very time consuming to make , which doesn’t leave enough time to work on new projects, so it seems like the right time to close that chapter and start a new one.

The new chapter continues with felt letters, numbers & snowflakes as well as a couple of new alphabets and some other felt projects later this year.  I will also be spending a little more time on my notebook website Billy & Ralph which is a huge passion of mine but, for one reason or another, has taken a bit of a back seat lately.  So here’s to the next chapter…

Happy crafting.
