I am a self taught crafter specialising in macrame, I have always had a passion for crafts especially learning traditional techniques. Originally from Ireland I moved to Bristol, UK in 2012 and set up my small business Knots and Shots at the end of 2013, knots for my macrame and shots for my photography!

I first became interested in macrame when I wanted to make plant pot hangers for some of my houseplants. A friend showed me the basic knots and then I began to teach myself more advanced macrame techniques. I now specialise in plant pot hangers but I also make wall hangings and have a range of accessories, clothing and home-wares including key-rings, badges, magnets, tees, shelves & bunting.

I've had a life long interest for photography, and in 2008 I received my diploma in Fine Art Photography from Limerick College of Further Education, in my home town in Ireland. Over the years I have built up a portfolio of fine art images, most of which I would describe as abstract nature. I also do some commercial photography including events such as music gigs and markets, some local small businesses such as cafe's and of course all my own product photography!
