Maker's bio

Hello! I'm Linda Gransby, founder of Memories and Photos. My mission is providing simple solutions to allow busy people to enjoy their craft time. When you meet me you'll most likely find me with a cuppa in my hand, and barefoot, it helps me create better! I'm a passionate crafter, experienced teacher and founder of Memories and Photos, with over 20 years experience in the crafting world. I've written four books that have featured as Amazon bestsellers, to help people enjoy their scrapbooking and journalling without the stress. I've been published in Scrapbooking Magazine, and have written a cover zine for Your Family History Magazine. I've also been a featured guest speaker on main stage at craft business conferences a number of times, and I've demonstrated at Hobbycraft and Stamperama.

Lesley Homer reviewed: Country House Crafting Retreats in rural Hertfordshire

"Brilliant weekend. Great venue, delicious food. So good to lay out all your bits and leave them there all weekend. The best part, though is the company. Lots of like minded ladies, all willing to share their expertise. Linda is a lovely person who makes it all happen and shares our love of crafting of all kinds."

Melissa reviewed: Country House Crafting Retreats in rural Hertfordshire

"Such a lovely weekend, first time I’d been with my friend and it was clear that this was a regular retreat for some ladies - they made us feel so welcome, great value for money, accommodation was clean and tidy (and you hardly spend any time in your room when you have 24hr access to your projects). Food was tasty and lots of it (loved the homemade cakes on offer all day), beautiful grounds to walk in, I’ve not found anything quite like it that gives you the freedom and space to do your own projects you’ve brought with you, we’ll definitely be back!"

Angela Whitehead reviewed: Country House Crafting Retreats in rural Hertfordshire

"Just back from four days here, my first longer stay. Had a wonderful time, relaxed, shared and learned skills& made friends. It’s a lovely place to stay, good food and pleasant grounds to wander in. I managed to complete a lot of scrapbooking, my favourite craft. Having room to spread everything out and interrupted time to work is great. Highly recommended. I have booked two weekends for next year and may try to squeeze in another."
