Author Biography

Rosie Made a Thing was started by Rosie in 2015, after she turned up to Spring Fair with 30 cards and a drill, and happily set up her stand in the back corner of the NEC (next to the loos). The company now supplies stores all around the UK, including John Lewis, Scribbler, Fenwick and Fortnum and Mason, as well as exporting to lots of countries around the world. Now with three children, bringing with them hectic schedules of football and treading slime into the carpets, Rosie has still found time to win the best humour range at the Henries for the fifth year running. This is her first book.
