Meet the Maker, Amanda John of Luti John

I live in South Wales with my partner Paul, three elderly cats and one handsome dog. I have a grown up daughter Poppy who lives nearby. Aside from making jewellery, I’m a keen distance runner (I’ve run several marathons including running the Snowdonia marathon 3 times) and dream of living on a smallholding, but currently make do with growing vegetables in my back garden.
