When HD8 Life met Handmade by Kirstie

HD8 Life met Handmade by Kirstie in September 2024 at her home in Emley.

Kirstie told us all about crafting her beautiful items from sustainably resourced wool (from a herd of non-slaughter sheep!) and t-shirt factory off-cuts.

She chatted to us about how much she enjoys being close to nature in HD8, with so many different environments on her doorstep, and how this inspires her work and her dedication to remaining environmentally aware.

Kirstie wanted to shout out the following businesses who are based (or trade regularly) in our little pocket of Yorkshire:

@ecohub.emley

@bakedbybecci

@hevs_threads

@pippi_silver

@hugoandbertie

@springwoodflowers

You'll often find @handmadebykirstie at local fayres and markets, or just drop her a message on Instagram if you've seen something you like or would like to commission a piece.

Thanks for the lovely chat, Kirstie!
