Community highlight - interview with Francesca

December 31, 2021

Community highlight  -  interview with Francesca

Community is the backbone of Painted Swan; the backbone of our Carroll Gardens community is Francesca. A dear friend of ours, Francesca is one of the most kind hearted, funniest, selfless, and loving people we have ever known. She is also the mastermind behind our now famous hand-crocheted snowflakes. 

Inspired by the merry spirit of this Holiday season, we realised that Francesca and her craft must be highlighted. So, Andrea sat down with Francesca to chat about her passions, interests, and what the snowflakes truly mean to her. It’s a feel-good, lighthearted conversation that will warm up your hearts these cold, gloomy winter days.
