About me
I’m Daisy and I come from a small town in the UK, I’ve been interested in art since I was little and used to make quite detailed birds and birds nests out of toilet paper mâché for fun, I studied art and graphic design at college and was very intrigued by the linocut carving and Mono printing.
During college I started up an Etsy shop also named Daisyshabit which sold handmade bead bracelets which had 600+ sales, good reviews and kind loyal customers, it was up for a year and a half but got taken down mid 2023 due to copyright as I used popular song titles as the text on some bracelets, it felt so unmotivating having it removed as I worked hard on it but if it was still up I would never have started my art business, it inspired me to get started on projects I was too scared to test out.
I already had the bracelet idea as that’s what my Etsy was based around so I made happy face bracelets with positive affirmations, star signs and celebrating pride. I really enjoyed creating unique art prints with linocut, so I added them to the collection for my shop and I also previously made customisable pet shrinky dink earrings and keyrings for my friends and family as commissions so decided to combine all my ideas together to make a weird but wonderful Daisyshabit mix!
