Some of the work Crafty Corner has been commissioned to do:
Commissions
Our extensive knowledge of product range and our own crafting skills, along with our vast network of suppliers and manufacturers places us in the unique position to fulfil each and every request, no matter how extreme. To date we have accomplished a multitude of projects, some big, some small, each with a unique challenge, but all were a blast to work on!
Nouwens Carpets
Crafty Corner specialises in the manufacture of unique, handmade creations and corporate gifts. For Nouwens Carpets, we were commissioned to produce 500 book covers made from genuine Nouwens Carpet.
Virgin Active, UK
Crafty Corner works with a number of international clients. Our handmade, wire bicycles were crafted by local artists and crafters using local suppliers, and exported to the UK for Virgin Active.
Valentines Day Rose Candles
Commisioned to produce 200 pink rose candles, with cellophane wrap and note tag to be given away as a Valentines Day corporate gift. Crafty Corner first manufactured the silicone rose moulds, and then produced the candles from the custom made moulds.
JD Group
Design and manufacture of two giant baobab trees. The first tree, pictured below, was designed and built by the Crafty Corner team using wire and hessian in just one day.
The second baobab tree we built for the JD Group, was built with wire exclusively and manufactured over several days.
MTN
Design and manufacture of 5000 stackable candles for World Aids Day.
Rand Merchant Bank
Design and manufacture of a giant pair of female legs. The legs are made from recycled materials and covered with a fabric "skin". Each leg is 4m in length.
Office National
Design and manufacture of 200 gift boxes and wire baobab trees. The Coke bottle gift boxes were handmade using recycled plastic bottles, while the wire baobab trees were manufactured through our community program.
Spitz
Reindeer bags for shoeboxes. These bags are made from felt. First the reindeers had to be cut out by hand, then the floppy felt reindeers had to be stiffened using our own special mixture of glue. Once the reindeers were stiffened, we had to punch holes along the edges. The reindeers were then stitched together by hand.
ATTV Communications
Manufacture of a 3m x 5m black starlight curtain. The stage was set and this LED starlight curtain surely set the scene! Mark had lots of fun with this one - who says techies can't also play and have fun!
ATTV Communications
Time Machine!!! I think this one of a kind project speaks for itself. This time machine was built as a prop for a "Back to the Future" style video. If you don't think we can do anything after this... just wait till you see the bunny below...
Duracell
