About me

HELLO!

My name is Mary. I’m a qualified Nursery Nurse,  who for the past thirty years, has worked in numerous different care/educational settings. Working with children from birth to adults aged sixty five years and above.

I’m a Mother of a twenty five Year old and a Grandmother to a five year old!

I’ve always had an incline for the ARTS and CRAFTS,  but not in any rigid form, (the messier, the better!).

I have always wanted to set up a provision for the general public to enjoy whilst at the same time promote recycling (helping the environment of the future). Enabling the participants to have a keepsake to take away at minimal cost!

WHAT

What a chance for the general public to design and paint their own reusable linen bag. In the form of a TOTE SHOPPING BAG/RUCKSACK/DRAW STRING BAG/PILLOW to name a few.
Using fabric paint that is washable.
The bag can taken away after they have finished.

WHO?

The provision/activity is open to the general public off any age or ability. FROM the lonesome shopper to a children’s party or adult  social gathering, Community groups and events, and even residential groups/homes.
