: About Me

Hi everyone, I'm Ange, (Angel Quinton) a parent of 5 children, ages between 21 and 2..

I live in Staffordshire, in the Midlands, U.K. I am interested in using natural products for cleaning, beauty and health products, including aromatherapy and soap nuts.

I also hold a Foundation Degree for Teaching Assistants and am interested in all aspects of education.

I have two horses, Sasha and Java and a dog called Brunetta. I am interested in all animals and animal welfare I foster guinea pigs for a local rescue.

I enjoy spending time with my family, writing, reading, internet, gardening, interior decoration and music.

Since joining Helium I have enjoyed reading all your articles and stories on here, and have sold several articles. I hope you enjoy reading my articles. Helium is a great place to get writers and publishers connected.

I also sell Barefoot books to promote love of books for children. These quality inspiring books are always a delight to share with your children.
