About Me

Hi,

I’m Kate the owner of Purple Days. I’m mum to 3 kids, owned by 2 cats and have a long suffering husband! I live in Shepley, a small village on the outskirts of Huddersfield.

I have always enjoyed crafts, and have found that it helps my mental health to be able to sit and concentrate on being creative.

I find doing any sort of craft very therapeutic and it really helps my mental health. The act of concentrating on making something helps to calm my mind and then I have something nice at the end.

I started quilling back in 2019 after being inspired by a friend’s birthday card they received that had been quilled. It started as a hobby, making pictures for friends and family, I was still doing other crafts at the time and found time to learn crochet and even made fabric masks during Covid.

After a visit to an arts event in our village my husband encouraged me to start selling my products, which at the time was paper quilling, jewellery and lino print cards.

So back in October 2021 Purple Days was born and I started selling my items on my website and at craft fairs, since then Purple Days has had a rebrand, a few changes in what I sold and today I simply sell paper quilled products, mainly pictures, greeting cards, jewellery and fridge magnets.

If you would like to know anything else about me and Purple Days send me a message and I’ll get back to you.
