Martin and I first established Crafty Boaters in 2019 when we set up running Airbnb on our narrowboat. During the first lockdown, with our narrowboat closed to guests I rediscovered my love of art and started painting again. After a second lockdown in November 2020, and craft fairs cancelled we set up Crafty Boaters Markets.
Today, we no longer have the Airbnb, and now concentrate our efforts as organisers of Crafty Boaters Markets in Lechlade-on-Thames. In addition, I now create, teach, and sell my folk art painting felt decorations.
