share little bits and pieces. I have had a basic website since the early days of Charislee, but I am currently working on updating it and trying to add photos on a more regular basis to keep people coming back.
The Business...
The best thing for me about being an indie designer is getting to do what I love everyday! It never stops for me, I am constantly thinking of new designs and ideas for prints. The biggest challenge for me is time management! I have three daughters (identical 4 year old twins and an almost 2 year old) and a husband who is studying, so it is a real juggle getting everything done and not stressing out. I have ‘studio’ type space at home, but it really is the back of the garage with my big table and machines. I love having a designated area to sketch, design and spread out. With having little kids it is good to be able to lock everything away. Where do I want to see Charislee in the future?? This is the question that I have been working on for a while now. I have just launched charis wee – our little girls range – starting with tees, and that has been getting great feedback - probably because of the gorgeous models!! ;)!! I would like to do it all, shoes, handbags, homeware, perfumes, swimwear, sun glasses etc etc, but we will take that one step at a time!!!
