Design team call!

Crafty Boots is looking to extend our design team!!

If you are interested please carry on reading and see if this sounds like the team for you!!!

- Unfortunately this call is open to crafters in the United Kingdom only.
- You MUST have a blog or if you don't have a blog be willing to set one up

What's in it for me?:


- 10% discount on any items from the Crafty Boots shop
- Opportunity to purchase other craft supplies (i.e. items that we do not stock) which we will source from our suppliers for you at heavily discounted prices
- Links to your blog from our blog, challenge site and have your work featured on both sites and at times on our shop site.
