MEET PERIWINKLE’S NEW OWNER

Hi, I am Sonia, the new owner of Periwinkle Crafters Paradise in Groot Brakrivier. I am a creator and crafter myself. Someone recently asked me: “But Sonia, you are busy with your law degree, so why did you buy a Craft Shop?”

Here’s the back story. I grew up in a home with a creative and artistic mother who ignited my love for craft and creativity at a
very young age. She taught me a lot about thinking outside the box and to put my own touch on whatever I was doing My first craft projects were greeting cards, which later evolved to 3D greeting cards, made from anything I could get my hands on.

From there on I started learning different types of crafting like paper quilling via Youtube Videos, mandala dot art which I learned in a crafting class, different forms of journaling from Tiktok videos and electronic creativity with Canva and Cricut. Crafting is my first love, my biggest passion and it is a joy to be able to turn my passion into a career. For me this is a little piece of heaven on earth which I am excited to share with you all.

A bonus is that it is not only a craft shop, but there is also a little  bit of everything so if you are looking for something, chances are
good that you might find it at Periwinkle. Periwinkle also has big plans for the future. This includes expanding our ranges, bringing in some more modern crafting supplies for fun activities like different forms of journaling and a range of Cricut merchandise.
