At the recent First Thursday I came across Ferrit’s pretty and precious handmade pieces. I did not buy anything at the time (mini dilemma – spend my pennies on cute or on cider?) but I picked up a business card. I’m so happy I did… look at how awesome her creations are!
From the cardboard frame brooches:
To the bouquets of flowers:
To Be Fri and St Ends declarations of love:
Everything is just really lovely:
“Once upon a time in a beautiful island called New Zealand lived a Ferrit. She loved to scavenge, search and fossick for interesting old things like fabrics, ornaments, books and clothing from around this island. Miss Ferrit loved collecting so much that her small home was filled with many piles of things she had collected over her years of fossicking. She had always dreamed of one day becoming a real crafty Ferrit and using all the interesting things she had gathered to create new things to share with others from around the island.”
You can often see the Ferrit scurrying around at Auckland’s regular craft markets; or for those of you a bit further away, perhaps you could get your paws on something directly from her.
