who are frilly industries?

Frilly Ind is me Kirsty and my trusty laser Bertha!

I started out with my company We Are Frilly, helping others embrace their creativity by designing and delivering art projects, but I was neglecting my own creativity.  

If you're curious you can find out all about this work at We are Frilly.  So how did I make the leap and set up Frilly Industries too ?

 
 

Building the Frilly empire

'Frilly' is about remembering to have fun, not everything has to be serious.  Being ‘Frilly’ reminds me to remain playful, whether that’s in my work with people, my process of making jewellery, or in how I dress and most importantly accessorise.

After working with a local company to laser cut a series of public art with a local school in Birmingham, the obsession to own one went from a dream to a plan.

There was no concern over knowing how to use a laser cutter, there was no business plan, just a belief that I totally could and would make it work. As a maker I’m process driven, I like to play and explore with materials, and ensure that there is scope for my own creative expression. If you can’t back yourself then how do you expect anyone else to support you too?

and So:

Frilly Industries was born!
