Lilly Cottage is a quaint little cottage store situated at ‘Old Petrie Town’, Kurwongbah, 35 kms north of Brisbane. Linda and Laura have had the shop for 18 months but their crafting journey started long before that. Both ladies have been selling their wares for many years at local markets and then through rented space at another store before embarking on this business venture together.
Linda & Laura manage the juggling act of raising a family and running a business with the help of their mums. Together these 4 women produce 60% of the beautiful wares sold at Lilly Cottage. They are so multi talented that they produce wares that are painted, sewn, embroidered, beaded, embellished, knitted, crocheted, collage, jewellery and pretty much anything they put their mind to. If that doesn’t keep this duo busy enough they also hold special events, tea parties and bubbly breakfasts – ooh I like the sound of that one!!!!.
Linda said “We are living our dream - we both took a very long, windy and bumpy road to get here, but we arrived and now have unpacked our luggage and we aren't packing up again anytime soon, like ever”.
