Hi, I'm Lucy Patterson, I live on top of a windy hill on the wild West Coast of Auckland, New Zealand with my man, my mum, two dogs, a cat, lots of chickens and a pig called Alice. I teach Reiki (a kind of hands-on healing), craft beautiful things and grow some of our own food.

Visit my blog, Lucy Patterson HANDS-ON, where I share things that inspire me in every day life, projects I'm doing, and some of the the little hands-on moments that make living worthwhile.

I also have an Etsy Shop where I sell some of the crafty things I make.

Enjoy! :)
