Annonce    Welcome to my pride and joy!

My name is Renee and I am originaly from The Netherlands. Married to Frank. Mother to Nina (1998) and Timo (2000). My husband and I recently moved to Ireland. Our home is now in Dingle, County Kerry.

I started knitting (and crocheting) when I was about 10 years old. Both my mother and maternal grandmother taught me with a lot of patience. Making things and crafting has always been in my life. Besides knitting, I crochet, spin, sew project bags, make greeting cards, Travelers Notebook bags, junk journal inserts and handmade books for journaling.

It is important for me to be involved in the whole process of creation, from start till finish. The design begins in my head and my hands make it from my heart. Something with a soul emerges, seemingly out of nowhere. It has been made with passion. The time and thoughts that are part of the process get a special meaning. Not only to me, but also to the one who receives my creation. It means a lot to me when customers recognize this passion and appreciate it. In a distant way, I become part of their lives because of what I made for them.

There is no hesitation when I say that I make beautiful things. And I'm proud of my work!

I am thankful to my father who taught me how to hold a hammer and to make do with what is available.

I am thankful to my mother who had the rare gift to be able to make with her hands what she saw in her head.

And I am eternally thankful to my maternal grandmother for teaching me the old school crafts.

I ship my items STANDARD WITHOUT TRACK & TRACE, as flat as possible in a recycled plastic envelop that will fit into your mailbox.

If you buy multiple products, Etsy charges the individual shipping rates per product and adds them all up. In some cases you pay too much for the shipping. I will refund the difference between the amount you paid and the actual shipping costs.

Estimated delivery time:

Domestic (within Ireland) orders should arrive between the next business day and 2 business days. This all depends on your local delivery system. I have no control over this.

International orders should arrive within 3 days - 2 weeks. Sometimes it can take longer. It all depends on the Irish and international postal service. I have no control over this.
