Over the years I have grown many plants especially herbs, for cooking, making my own beauty products and also dried flower arrangements, drying my own flowers. This progressed to other ways of using plants and I studied Aromatherapy. Some time later I studied and continue to study Reiki, which in itself has nothing to do with plants but has helped me in other ways. I joined a Reiki group, which I
found beneficial. Each person in that group has left a positive effect on me. There I met Allison Emmerson and over six months or more, she talked me into doing a natural dye and herb workshop. (See www.angelsandroses.co.uk for courses and workshops on offer from Alli and others at the Healing Shack) At this point I thought I had better do something about dyeing as I had done a minuscule amount and taught myself about dyeing with the help of a few books. About a year later a mutual friend, Wendy Richardson, was opening a craft shop in Great Ayton and decided I would I like to sell my knitwear through her. She produces crystal jewellery.
