Everything in our store has been hand crafted by me in the UK using elements of up-cycled and repurposed materials, frequently about to be discarded and often shared or donated by friends who want to see what could be made. It is the creative side of us all that, when nurtured, promotes our wellbeing and feeling of self-worth.
No matter what your skill level, it is the use of your imagination that generates greatest rewards quite unexpectedly.
Things may not look pristine, but nothing created from the imagination using previously cast off or unwanted items ever is, that is what makes it unique.
