Hi, I'm Vanessa

Professional over-thinker. Craft hoarder. Collector of half-finished ideas that somehow turn into finished products.

Welcome to Overly Ambitious Sisters.

The name started years ago with two sisters who thought, "How hard can it be?"

Turns out... sometimes very.

These days it's me behind the scenes, but one thing hasn't changed, I still have a habit of turning a simple idea into a full scale production.

Need a personalised T-shirt? Easy.

A candle? Done.

A custom gift? Absolutely.

Do I also think I can learn an entirely new craft at 10 o'clock on a Tuesday night because I had "an idea"?

Unfortunately... yes.

Some ideas become best sellers.

Some become expensive lessons.

And some quietly disappear into the craft cupboard where we all agree never to speak of them again.

Creating isn't just what I do, it's how my brain works.

I'm always designing, making, tweaking, changing, improving and somehow convincing myself that buying one more machine is a perfectly sensible business decision.

(It's definitely an investment... right?)

Every order is made with care, packed by hand and sent with the hope that when someone opens it, they can't help but smile.

Because that's the best part.

Not the making.

Not the designing.

The moment it becomes part of someone else's story.

So if you've found yourself here...

Welcome.

Have a look around.

And don't be surprised if you visit again next month and discover I've added another twenty products.

Like I said...

Overly ambitious.

It's kind of my thing.
