long version

Italian-borne, Isabella Strambio, spent her childhood in the idyllic city of Imperia a lovely coastal city next to the French border with sparkling blue water surrounded by hills. 

After spending 13 years travelling in the best design cities to work as an international interior designer, in 2016 she felt her creativity needed a boost and by setting herself a personal challenge to learn twelve crafts in twelve months she transformed her passion for anything handmade into a fully fledged successful creative business. 

Isabella quickly become frustrated by the lack of information available to those that wanted to build a business out of macrame using recycled and natural materials, she started working globally with sustainable macrame suppliers and while gaining enough experience teaching this healing mindful art, she then become the most sought after macrame teacher in UK, while her online students and clients comes from all over the world.
