A little about me.

It seems almost big headed to do a post about myself, but as I've said, I know I always like to see the person behind things I like (and thank you so much for liking Santa Macabre!), so here I go :)


My name is Maria Junko and I am a lot nearer to 30 than I am near to 20. This is an odd feeling, but I'm cool with it :) I'm a total homebody and my biggest passion is animals, hence my being vegan. I love nothing more than being creative, which is how I ended up making things under the name of Santa Macabre.


I first sold my handmade items at the Wolverhampton Vegan Festival in 2009, which was amazing! After that awesome experience I began to sell at other South Wales based fairs and eventually ran my own monthly fair (Vintage Pretty) for just over a year. I made some lovely friends from the crafter/artist crowd and had a wonderful time. 


Currently I am mainly working on custom pieces, which I absolutely love. There's nothing more exciting than being asked to create something unique for someone. I am very lucky to have some wonderful customers and I am so very grateful!


Santa Macabre takes up a lot of my time, but I will try and take the time out to update this regularly. Hopefully you will get to see just some of my influences, aswell as getting the chance to look at all the wonderful models who have helped me out by modelling my jewellery/accessories.
