Chloe told our sister paper Daventry Gusher: "I get broken jewellery and fix it to make earrings.

"I started off doing car boots and I've moved on to doing stalls at craft fairs and other events."

Her mother, Amy, added: "I'm really proud of Chloe and what she's doing, she works really hard.

"My son, Jake, is part of the cadets. I'm proud of both of them, it certainly beats being on electronics all the time."
