Pins & Needles is not just about creepy-cute dolls and horror accessories. Pins & Needles is a backlash to every 'no' I have ever received in life, every laugh I've gotten at what I wear and how I look, every bully and heartbreak!
Each doll represents a part of my personality, some are stronger than others, but they all compliment each other in some way...
I was told at university I couldn't draw very well by a tutor and I wasn't artistic enough and nearly failed my degree as they didn't like what I did.
Pins & Needles is about embracing your weirdness and empowering yourself to be whoever the f*ck you want to be.
I have been told it won't work, laughed at and told 'not to give up my day job' and been patronised left, right and centre... Everytime I hear this is what made me want to create more, the more I heard it the more creatures came to take over the world and reak havoc on the ones who didn't understand the deeper meaning...
Their existence makes the world a better place and I'm changing views one creature at a time...

"You don't have to be who they want you to be..."
