About

Author of crafty titles The Crafty Minx, The Crafty Kid and Minxy Vintage, as well as the memoir A Life in Frocks, Kelly Doust has been scouring flea markets and charity stores for vintage fashion, fabric and homewares from her early teens, and making and reinventing things in her own trial-and-error way since she was a girl.

Kelly appears as a regular craft expert on television shows such as Sunrise, The Morning Show and Mornings with Kerri-Anne. With a career spanning book publishing, public relations and freelance writing in Sydney, Hong Kong and London, Kelly has written for Vogue, Australian Women’s Weekly and Sunday Life, and is currently working on her fifth book.
