Kia ora! Welcome to my Felt store.
I am crafter within the textile arts genre, mostly focusing on embroidery, cross stitch, and felt art.
I grew up in Ōtepoti, Dunedin, and am now based in Ōtautahi, Christchurch.
I started embroidery in 2016 as a way to entertain myself while acclimatising to a new city. Over time I started to fill my home with embroidered bits and bobs, and soon I found I needed a way to continue enjoying my craft without my home drowning in it! That’s where Charissa’s Crafting Corner began.
I am inspired by kiwiana, nature, and pop culture. I try my best to source my materials second hand as much as possible, looking for sustainable materials, and use eco friendly and recycled packaging.
I am grateful for every one of you who decides to bring one of my creations into your life.
Thank you!
