About DWS Designs

Hi, I’m Dee and I’ve been making crafty things for over 30 years.  I found a clip on a popular social media platform of this Kinusaiga art early 2026 and I decided I wanted to try it out.  I was disappointed to find that kits for this art were not easily available in the UK so I started to look into how I could try it myself  

I spent hours of my time researching foam and how many different types there are, then spent more than a few pounds purchasing various types to test out.  After a few weeks I found the material I liked best which was lightweight, the right depth, rigid and able to cut easily and held the double sided adhesive tape well.  

I then made my first design and quickly became addicted and then decided that I could offer kits to crafters in the UK and so I started purchasing materials and sourcing suppliers for deadstock and recycled fabrics, setting up my website and then learning how to design my own images for use in the kits.

i also looked into framing options but decided that to keep costs down for customers I would make my own cardboard box frames to include with the kits.  

With the unwavering support of my wonderful husband, family and friends I launched the site and have also started attending crafting shows as a trader  

I hope that you like what you see here and that the designs and ideas appeal to you.
