About us
Vision
Crafty Corner should be your first port of call should you require anything craft related. Our vision is to help crafters find relevant and up to date information, products, gifts, fellow crafters, suppliers and ideas.
History
I grew up with a mother who is exceptionally industrious and can create something out of nothing. As kids, her crafts were always so much fun to do and turned out so well. After leaving school, I studied interior decorating and have been decorating and crafting ever since. I teach craft classes at schools and hold private classes for children with learning disabilities, as well as conducting holiday and weekend kids craft classes and programs. I also run classes from home and spend my time keeping this site up-to-date, along with all the other crafty things we get involved with, from the creation of Upcycle and saving the planet, to community involvement and corporate gifts. If it's crafty and no one else can do it - you can count on us!.
Achievements
Since its inception, Crafty Corner has always worked closely with the disadvantaged. We feel it is our duty to help those who have not had the same opportunities as us learn life and basic business skills so that they can empower their own lives. Over the years, Crafty Corner has shown remarkable growth and we are very proud of the work we have done, our achievements, the lives we have touched and their achievements.
Through hard work and commitment, we have serviced many individuals and companies by providing stunning corporate gifts and anything craft-related, from candles and gift boxes, to custom picture frames, handbags, decorations and light fittings. Our quality and dedication to the task at hand stands out amongst the crowds.
From the masses of queries and e-traffic we received through the recycling section on Crafty Corner and the need to look after our only home (Earth), we decided to create a seperate entity dedicated to saving the planet, and so, Upcycle was born! Although seperate entities, with a similar vision and mission, Crafty Corner and Upcycle maintain a close relationship (and share offices), though Upcycle more on a "save your junk, save the planet" basis!
These sites have been made possible through many hours of meticulous coding and learning CSS and HTML. I have to admit, I would not have been able to pull this off without the help of Mark Fruhauf and his developers at Fruhauf Communication. As much as I have nagged and moaned, they have always been there coding and helping, from day one and still working ......
Having had this site up for only two years, it is clear to me that there is an enormous demand for a site like this. We are getting 300 visitors a day and counting! The sooner you send me your details, the sooner you will become part of it.
Please feel free to send us any news, events, SPELLING CORRECTIONS or contact details you would like to have added.
I look forward to making this site enjoyable and informative.
Thank you all.Winnie McHenry
