About Me

 

Hi everyone!

To be honest I’m not sure who the “everyone” is as I don’t know how many of you actually look at this blog haha. So far it’s been a fun place for me to record my creativity.

Well I thought it was time to introduce myself to those who stumble along here.

Hi, I’m Hannah.

I’ve been a blogger on and off for YEARS (here's my first post from 2012). My blogging days started with agirlwithsomeclothes (now changed to HannahsewsNZ- if you look at my older content); I focused on “outfits of the day” and gradually moved into doing my nails.

Someone asked me the other day how I got into nail polish and nail art. I actually cant completely remember, but I do recall two things. One, I decided to buy some new nail polish and for some reason (probably shipping costs haha) I ended up with a huge box of Revlon nail polish. Two, I recall feeling so “cool” painting one of my nails a different colour and then seeing Pretty Little Liar and noticing they had done the same and realizing I was part of the trend! Haha.

 

Following on from this I decided to branch out and start a nail art blog and Instagram account. At this stage I wanted to follow theme and named my blog “agirlwithsomepolish” – tongue twister hey?

Overtime I realised I wanted something catchier and created PolishedNZ.

 

PolishedNZ has been in existence for years; and over that time I’ve also discovered another passion – SEWING! I then went on to start my next blog; Hannahsewsnz.

I’ve tried incorporating the two into one account but I can’t quite find a catchy title I love. I did have Polish and Sew for a little while there but I feel like it looses the specific focus on nail art and polish that PolishedNZ has built up.

Hannahsewsnz is still active; follow me there for sewing related content.

 

So more about me. Yes, I work full-time in addition to my polish and sewing hobby. I’m married to a wonderful (and handsome) man, and mama to two cheeky boys! (we are making a conscious effort to avoid putting photos of our boys on the internet so you won’t be seeing them sorry).

 

 You may notice on my sewing posts and photos a “tiny knight” tag. That is because for a short time I decided to try my hand at sewing for business – I created Tiny Knight (inspired by my tiny knights) however quickly discovered my passion quickly dwindles when I am forced to do it instead of when inspiration strikes!

I’ve done so much more sewing for me and my tiny knights since ‘quitting’ the business – and it’s been GREAT!

 

If you love sewing or polish then follow along. I’m not making any promises about how frequently I’ll be posting because this is for me so I’ll be posting when I feel like it.
