Welcome to the Skinley Designs web site.

 

This is a new site and it is being updated all the time so please check back regularly to see the changes and additions.

 

In the SHOP you will find items that are handmade in Shetland.

 

I live in Gulberwick, Shetland. Paper crafting has been my hobby for years and I love making cards and books as presents or keepsakes for my family.

 

I originally started making cards and then progressed on to gift bags, shopping bags and favour boxes. Products are designed by myself with traditional Shetland phrases and sayings.

 

Others have wanted to buy my products and so I approached Gillian at the Shetland Fudge Shop. She agreed to sell some items but not my full range, obviously she is limited by space so the idea of a web site was born.

 

Shetland lies 226 miles north of Aberdeen, Scotland. It is made up of over 100 islands with only 15 of them inhabited. It spans 100 miles between Fair Isle and the Out Stack (Britain’s most northerly point). The current population of Shetland is approx. 22,500

 

Hope you like the site and we hope you visit us again soon.

Thanx
