I live in Bristol and have always had a passion for interiors & crafting. I opened my Etsy shop just over a year ago where I sell my pillows which are all made from vintage fabrics mainly dating from the 60s/70s and mixed with modern organic fabric. When I'm not making my pillows I have a coffee & crepe business which I take to music festivals.

Inspired by a whole range of stuff and nonsense and influenced by none of it at the same time.
They don't work that often, mainly on a Thursday evening .
You may find that they items for sale on Etsy.
Depends on the day of the week.
You can find Candy and Fags on
facebook and etsy, and meet them at our Easter Market at the Arnolfini.

My homemade Treasures brings you cute, kitsch home-wares, from cushions and peg bags to aprons (for kids and adults) and aromatic lavender bags. Everything is sourced from recycled materials where possible, creator Louisa Smith says "I feel that just because curtains are old that they shouldn't be discarded as rubbish."
These fun little treasures are inspired by coveted items from shops and magazines, My Homemade Treasures uses the beauty and uniqueness of fabric to create kitsch items from nothing, she enjoys the thrill of trying out new things and incorporating her love of fabrics, buttons, ribbons, bows and braids into every design.
