About Purple and Orange

I take great care in hand making all of these gifts. I aim to make products with people in mind to create presents that people will love. There's something about the egg cup characters that people love. They're a great gift and a useful thing to have around.

How did Purple and Orange get started?

Purple and Orange was born when I made a pair of owl bookends for my friends little girl. They had purple tummy's, so one got called Purple and as nothing rhymes with purple the other one was called Orange, after his feet. Not bad as names go. The owl bookends were the first product I made, and things just went from there.

And what about the crafting talent behind these great products

I've always loved pattern creation, but I turn my hand to anything, and whilst my happy place is at the sewing machine, craft of any kind calms me and give me a chance to harness my creativity. I took a degree in graphic design and although I now work as a teacher, I use craft as a way to take me back to the side of me that loves to make.
