Born in Zimbabwe and now calling Northern Ireland home, Michelle Hanly has always been driven by a deep love for creativity and craftsmanship.  In 2021, after losing her job during the COVID-19 pandemic, Michelle transformed her passion into purpose and founded HanMade — a heartfelt venture that began with natural beauty products such as sugar scrubs, dry oil sprays, and soaps. As her creativity blossomed, so did HanMade. What started in her kitchen soon grew into a full-fledged studio of ideas — where handcrafted candles, resin art, and now a stunning collection of unique, colourful jewellery, keyrings, wine glass charms, and mobile accessories come to life, all made with alcohol inks and resin. Today, Michelle shares her love and creativity through intimate, hands-on workshops, where you can design your own jewellery with alcohol inks and resin, or create beautifully decoupaged charcuterie boards and jewellery boxes. Every HanMade creation is a labour of love — vibrant, personal, and truly one-of-a-kind.
