About
Jayne Tunnicliffe
Jayne Tunnicliffe started hand sewing tweed and tartan hares from her home in Saltaire, West Yorkshire in 2015, alongside working as an actor and writer.
She began selling them online and sales quickly took off, leading her to add deer, badgers, jackalopes and foxes to her repertoire.
Eight years later her creations are still in demand.
In 2023 she was featured in Yorkshire Life magazine.
She also created two custom lion heads for social media star Benny Drama's Kylie and Kendall Jenner spoof, as well as five larger than life dog heads for a retail display for Ted Baker in Saudi Arabia.
Jayne is constantly expanding the range of Crafted Creatures. Soon to join the menagerie will be wild boar, highland cows, horses, squirrels and llamas.
She is happy to discuss custom creations:
