Crafty Corner

About me

Growing up in an industrious and creative family, my mother encouraged us to always try our hands at creating something out of nothing, and her craft creations were always colourful, creative and a ton of fun.

My childhood brought out my passion for arts and crafts, and I built on this background by studying Interior Decorating after finishing school. I have been involved in crafts and decorations ever since.

Craft Corner background

Crafty Corner has worked closely with disadvantaged communities, bringing out their skills and creativity, while helping them create ways of earning their own income and empowering themselves by using their own hands and applying themselves.

Through hard work and commitment, we have provided numerous corporates with stunning corporate gifts, as well as supplied our many clients with magical presents, useful tips and creative crafts.

Through our recycling section and our commitment towards saving the planet, we saw a need to create a separate site dedicated towards aiding the environment: Thus came Upcycle...

upcycle

Despite being a separate entity, Crafty Corner keeps a close relationship with Upcycle, both sharing a vision of making a difference by the creative use of “junk”.

The future

Having had this site up for two years, it is clear that there's an enormous demand for a concept such as this one. We presently receive around 300 visitors a day and counting!

You are encouraged to send us your details and truly be a part of the Crafty Corner experience.
