About Hodgepodge

Hi! Thank you for stopping by! I am Tara, I am the owner and creator at Hodgepodge. I am an indie biz owner that works around my young family based in Unstone, Derbyshire. All my items are designed and created by me in my home studio. I create beautiful art pieces using watercolour and pencil which I then use on a range of stunning homeware and gifts. All the components I use to make my products are sustainably sourced and are all made in house by myself on my own machinery. I have been selling my items now since 2014 and I have been self employed since 2018. My art work has been awarded the Highly Commended award for Sketch for Survival in 2021, and I was awarded finalist in both 2022 and 2023. The products I have created from my art have contributed to me achieving "Wildlife Gifts Shop of the year" with LUXlife Magazine in 2023. Read their story
