DAHNART will be Exhibiting at CraftAlive Griffith - Please go check out there stall….
PROFILE of Dahnart - My Name is Dahna I travel to all CraftAlive’s with my Dad, my Mum and my sister in which we all have a site that we work on. It originated with only myself and my sister working together on Dahnart, and then my parents started coming for a ‘getaway’ in which they love catching up and chatting with all the other exhibitors. They now have the ‘bug’ ! We then all extended things further, designing my wall art, my dad creating his terrific lanterns and my sister using her creativity and sewing a beautiful range using kimono fabrics.
So this is where we are today, all playing ‘creative’, travelling together, living together, and working together. We have a great time and look forward to each CraftAlive making money and catching up with everyone. We wouldn’t choose any other lifestyle!!!
Dad (Fer) makes and sells recycled tea-light lanterns
Mum (Liuda)sells my removable wall art for me.
Sister (Sonia) makes and sells owls, birds and other
Me (Dahna) makes and sells bright painted wood product in which I personalise on the spot.
