Who is Snapdragon Brand?

Snapdragon Brand is me...

Friendly Weirdo. Innovative Crocheter. Maker by nature.

 

My name is Ashley Lee Zhong, and all I want to do, all day long, is make things. Sometimes that means crocheting piles of granny squares, sewing bed sheets into a ball gown, or even just giving myself a sweet glitter manicure. Snapdragon Brand is the culmination of my insatiable creative appetite; it’s my dream and my baby. I hope you feel comfortable in this space and find something just right for you. 

The core philosophy of Snapdragon Brand is: Craft is for EVERYONE.

I promise to live by that ethos as I continue to learn and grow in my place as a maker. The Snapdragon Brand website is a safe space for all visitors. Period. 

I believe that Black Lives Matter and show my support by offering a monthly special item (rotating), of which 10% of the proceeds go directly to the Loveland Foundation. From their website:

"Loveland Foundation is committed to showing up for communities of color in unique and powerful ways, with a particular focus on Black women and girls. Our resources and initiatives are collaborative and they prioritize opportunity, access, validation, and healing."

This month, the item is: The Vivid Rainbow Crochet Print Skater Dress 

Additionally, I will be donating 10% of the proceeds from my sale of the Ribbon Canyon Blanket Special Edition Pattern for as long as I sell it on my site. 

As Snapdragon Brand continues to grow, so will my giving opportunities.

I control what goes on the site and social media pages and will always take responsibility for my words. I am open to critical feedback. Have I made a mistake? Could I improve my methods? Please let me know. I will listen first.
