Re-New Community Upcycling Store
Well, I tried to take some time off. I really need it. But, turns out I’m not very good at it.
So check out what I’ve been up to, since I closed the workshop and store, in Hastings. And yes, I managed to mow my lawns, too.

If you are looking for a positive way to contribute to a better future, for us all, look at upcycling. It’s not a new thing, it’s just a new word.
It is something we have, as a species, always done, from the days of prehistoric humans using sticks and stones and bones to make tools and weapons, to luxury manufacturers using cowhide to make fabulous upholstery. It’s just what we do.
And now, you can be an active part of the movement to look to the past for a better future.
Ask me how. Go on. I dare ya!
