\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Random Gran takes a project approach to the design and creation of artworks, craftworks, and saleable products. Some projects are small and result in one creation, while others are large and result in a collection of items, a novel, or a mix of words, images, and threads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gran prides herself on original designs in her creations. Therefore, this website highlights the design and development process as much as the finished item. The projects<\/a> <\/a>and gallery <\/a>pages of the website share these items and articles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Random Gran online hub consists of this website, its blog posts, social media, such as Facebook<\/a> and Pinterest<\/a>, and a proposed online Etsy shop<\/a>. Go to the About<\/a> page for more information about Random Gran and Random Gran Online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
