Bleujennow Upcycled Crafts Turning discarded into beautiful!

'Bleujennow' means flowers in Cornish, and for me represents the way beautiful flowers grow from discarded seeds.

I'm making crafts including jewellery and home decor from stuff which would otherwise be thrown away, or is second hand. I have always had a concern for the environment, human rights and animal welfare, and am a compulsive hoarder!! All of these are coming together in this exciting new venture for me, as the amount of waste nowadays is scandalous. I love being able to turn it into something beaut

iful, and learning new skills to enable me to do so. I package all items in re-used bags (e.g. the ones magazines and greetings cards come in), and use recycled paper paper carriers. Things I am currently using - please save them and let me know where to pick them up - many thanks! Unwanted nail varnish

I've been trying out some more designs for columns to support pots and planters, this time with bees and butterflies. I was lucky enough to be given some bits of pipe that are perfect!
