Welcome to Homespun & Little Extras

Our small team, Melinda and Ashleigh, as a mother and daughter team we have combined our ideas and passion into creating uniquely handmade gifts inspired by ever changing trends and interests.

Ashleigh

With an eye for colours, textures and detail I grew up surrounded by arts and crafts. Taking every art and sewing subject I could at school, this lead me on to complete a Degree in Interior Architecture. Now working in residential house design, my input into Homespun has flared from interests in interior design and inspirations which have grown from three precious little people in my life. I like to keep up with current trends and ideas and always believe if something's too expensive to buy from a store then why not come up with something better hand made.

After many years of designing, playing around with ideas and the love for crafts, I have raised three wonderful children who also enjoy making, designing, painting and crafty things. It has inspired me to share some of the beautiful crafts, myself and Ashleigh have made for you and your little ones. My love for children and working with little people for the last 37 years and still am, has made me look at special dreams for children

Children need to continue to have a childhood with wonder, beauty and magic all around, and when we think we have grown up, do we? Never!

Our love for crafts has continued for many years from scrapbooking, knitting, cross stitch, dimond art, painting, paper tole, hobby text paint, paper crafts, sewing, jewelry making to miniatures.

As we say, there is a child in all of us just waiting to explore. Let's explore the wonder and magic together.
