Her items are incredibly beautiful from Plaques too hang around the home to furniture and gift boxes all upholstered and designed by Paris herself. The Perks of being her daughter I wear all of her gorgeous Rings she has made.

I asked Paris to tell me a little bit more about her self, so I can share her work with my blog readers.
Paris says 'I love art, arty things and especially old wooden furniture. I love to search junk shops, charity shops, antique fairs and car-boot sales for old unloved items, dressing tables, ottomans, chairs etc and then re-style them.

As well as the furniture re’vamping which is my first love, I also paint my own canvas’s and work a lot with reclaimed wood making plaques and hearts and personalised gifts. I decorate old wooden boxes using decoupage, the most popular are of screen legends like Monroe, Hepburn and Taylor. I also invented something called purse buddies which is a little wallet for your purse with contains, toothpick, needle, cotton, buttons, handy wipe, nail file and pins, which led to door buddies and notice, pin and chalk boards…there is nothing I will not attempt, even tried glass engraving and I have wrote a couple of children’s books too!
I chose the name 'The Shed' for my business because that’s where I like to work from and you would be surprised what lurks at the back of both mine and your shed, just waiting for me to re’vamp.
Funked and re-styled furniture and unique art and unusual, unique gifts, take a look at my FB page and while you’re there don’t forget to 'like' and 'Share'... www.facebook.com/AttheShed or follow me on Twitter.
I also organise & promote Craft Fairs (Getthrifty's UK Craft Fairs) with my daughter who has caught the recycling, thrifting bug too; she works mostly with fashion and accessories'

I'm a huge fan of thrifting and revamping the already existing! Wish there were more craft fairs where I live! Love the little plaques :)
