Ashley is the creator of the small resin business GalacticDaze. If you're following my instagram you would have definitely seen one of her incredibly quirky creations. I have a custom made Mean Girls rolling tray & Burn Book pink sparkly ashtray (I didn't know it was possible to have feelings for an ashtray..), dinosaur earrings, cannabis confetti earrings and she was responsible for the awesum Pumpkin Kush earrings that featured in the Samhain Buddy's Bath Box.
Together we released 4 limited edition GalacticDaze X Buddy Mary Ashtrays which included the 4 favourites from my Spooky Series of illustrations. We were pretty blown away when they sold out in 12 hours and I am excited to say there will be more collaborations in the future as well as more exclusive ranges coming to BuddyMary.co.uk
I absolutely love the way this womans mind works. From the old school 'Untitled' clip art Jewelry backing cards to the well thought out treat bags full of nostalgic goodies that come with each purchase, you'll absolutely love what Ashely has to offer. Head over to @galacticdazeshop on Instagram.
My name is Ashley, I'm 28 and I'm originally from the US but I currently live in Northamptonshire with my wife of 8 years and our 7 (yes, you read that right. 7) fur children! Im very passionate about LGBTQ+ rights, and feminism.
I'm also a vintage furby collector, I actually take my favourite furby Rodger pretty much everywhere, it started out as joke but now its kinda become my brand.
My cannabis story is probably a bit different than most as I never actually smoked cannabis as a teenager! In fact I was one of those people who turned their nose up at the smell of someone smoking it and thought "smoking weed isn't a personality trait"
I deal with a lot of PTSD and anxiety, I've been on a lot of medication and nothing has ever helped me even a tiny bit. My head and body were constantly in fight or flight mode and I thought that was just normal and id be like that forever.. and then one day my cousin gave me an edible and it really changed my life. For once I felt relaxed and chilled out and I couldn't remember a time previously where I ever felt like that.

For once I felt relaxed and chilled out and I couldn't remember a time previously where I ever felt like that.
So from there I started smoking cannabis daily and it has helped me so much, I feel like after 28 years I can finally live my life without constant fear and anxiety taking over. Since then I've become very vocal about my experience with cannabis in hopes that I can possibly help someone else who maybe has the same mindset I did.
When I started smoking I realised that everytime I was high i felt nostalgic and thats where my shop idea came in.
I run Galactic Daze which is basically a 90s stoner kids fever dream. I make nostalgic smoking accessories like ashtrays, rolling trays, grinders and I've recently started making keyrings, coasters and earrings!
