Welcome!

Hello!

As my very first blog post I’d like to tell you all a bit about myself and about Fancy Nanna!

My name is Karla, and i live in Perth, Western Australia. As per the Ábout Me’ section of my page, I’m interested in so many things! At the moment i am really passionate about creating things from not a lot, and upcycling/re-furbing/re-fashioning anything i can! I don’t like to buy ‘new’ all the time (if i can help it), and i want to do my best to reduce my own consumerism, by living within my own means and by utilizing the skills that i have learned from my mother and grandmothers’ to do so! Hence where the name ‘Fancy Nanna’ originated – it is these women who inspired me to live in this way.

I’m hoping you enjoy reading about my adventures! i assure you, there has and will be many! In the mean time, perhaps think about how your own Grandmother’s/Nannas lived. Perhaps you have a ‘Fancy Nanna’ in the family too!
