New 'about me'...

For the pop-up shop we have had to write a sales pitch to briefly explain what 'Lily Bones' is and what we're about. I kept it fairly short and simple but the more I wrote it the more I started to like it and I'm now trying it out as our new about me (with a few bits and bobs taken out). 
Here's the piece in full:


"‘Lily Bones’ was born from a love of all things creative as well as the need to bring affordable, innovative design to a wider target audience. Run by two graphics students (Derrian and Mike) from Leeds college of Art, we create handmade and upcycled ‘stuff’ using anything we can get our hands on, including mass-produced products, found objects and modified buttons. Our quirky jewellery and accessories will make the ultimate statement!

Influenced by attending many vintage and crafts fairs, we often take inspiration from these events and try to incorporate themes into our designs. The idea for ‘Lily Bones’ first came about after many occasions of seeing overpriced and badly made jewellery and thinking ‘I can do that much better!’, and that is what we do. We are always trying out new ideas and welcome any commissions. Our stuff looks good enough to eat, but we wouldn’t advise that!

We love what we do and we hope you do too!

Got our sales team meeting this afternoon up at the other building, and we need to get our prices sorted and such. 
Busy!
