TangleCrafts is just, well, a big tangled celebration of crafts. It started off with my needlework/bargello designs, then mutated into a showcase for my tapestry weaving, which led me into launching a range of D.I.Y. weaving kits, which became the D.I.Y. Weaving Club. Preparation of kits led me into an exploration of practical origami and basic bookbinding techniques; D.I.Y. weaving led me into exploration of other forms of re-purposed crafting. The Weaving Club’s zine, Telaic Fantasy, brought me to the realisation that I love writing zines, which has led to the genesis of a whole raft more zines, allowing me to digress further along any other avenues that intrigue me. At this point, TangleCrafts reached a fork in the road, and TheTangledPress evolved as a branch specialising in not-specifically-crafty zines, and print-making – another newly acquired interest…
Like I said, TangleCrafts is just one big tangled mess of crafts. My blog is a testament to the thousands of ideas my head is constantly buzzing with, and a record of the comparatively few I manage to pin down before being swept along another new path. Life is a creative journey – please feel free to travel with me, or join me for a while before branching off on your own.
There’s always time to try somehing new!

Hullo – ‘masterbard’ from Swapbot here!
Received your lovely mulberry zine the other day and then immediately stumbled across your mini envelope template online…which led to a quick Google, a perusal of your website, and subsequent amazement that you have any time to craft lovely little projects for swapbot on top of all the other things you do! I can’t say I’m MORE honoured by knowing it, because the artistry and craft of the envelope, zine, and card all spoke for themselves immediately – but I’m delighted to have and enjoy a Tanglepiece of my own! (Not to mention that you’ve made a fan in my six-year old daughter…) Love from Korea!
