I'm Tahlia, the maker of everything here at T Made Me.

I've been crafting for as long as I can remember! I would spend hours upon hours over the school holidays and weekends at my grandma's house making things at her small dining room table. Whether it be painting, cross stitch, decoupage, sewing, crocheting or beading, you could trust that Grandma was teaching me something new.

After moving away from home for my first teaching job, I found comfort in making polymer clay earrings. It reminded me a little of home and gave me the opportunity to have a pair of matching earrings to each of my teacher outfits.

​The teachers and mums at school started noticing my earrings and encouraged me to take some to the local markets. This started the T Made Me journey.

I've loved exploring a range of mixed media and my earrings now will often feature resin, glitter, paint, acrylic components, texture and other techniques I've learned along the way.

There's something about the calming nature and creative outlet of crafting that keeps me coming back.
