M T Nest Crafts & Eco Diary Unique and practical gifts made from recycled materials. We repurpose them into beautiful lights saving them from landfill.

MINI LAMPSHADE FAIRY-LIGHTS - These lights were born when thinking of a way to brighten up my daughters camper van. Inspired by the beautiful lanterns hanging in the trees at a local music festival, I rescued a pile of shot glasses from the bin at a cider festival back in 2011... and have been making them ever since :)

BOTTLE LIGHTS - We are very lucky to have some lovely friends and local pubs w

ho save their unusual bottles for us. GREETING CARDS -
My greeting cards are lovingly made, using good quality recycled card and a stamp card collection dating back 30 years. Each collectable postcard can be reused by carefully detaching the foam squares.The finished card is left blank for your own message and measures 5 x 7 inches. I also make candle cards for birthdays, using scrap pieces of maps and the hard edges of fabric books. If you live in the Poole area, post a message on here and I can drop them round to your door. :)

I didn't used to like avocados and I can't remember the moment when I began to like them, but I like them now😊 They are a special treat on top of a slice of toast with salt n pepper. I make one last two days and on the second day I carve the stone 😀 So here's the fruit of my labour.

Anyone else really like saving little bits of scrap wood because it could be useful one day?

The best day walking in Wales. Postcode for a free parking place at the end. We slept here the night before so we could get an early start. No problems, low traffic noise but lots of litter by car day trippers in the layby😥

That feeling when all the Xmas decorations are down and everything looks so bare and grey so you dangle some pretty, vintage vibes around in the form of teeny tiny lampshades ❤️

This update is a bit late🫣 and many of these have been snapped up and gone to their new homes but there are a few left in my Etsy shop 😊

I've been beavering away in the background trying to make a new website from scratch. ( Wix decided to double it's fees and I'm trying hard not to raise my prices) Anyway I'm slowly learning a bit of coding. Doing a little bit each day💪

If you've got this far 🤗 please have a look and see what you think. It's very basic and I have some more photos to add but have managed some links💪 any tips below please xx www.mtnestcrafts.co.uk

Just letting you know that I appreciate everyone of you🎄 Thankyou for supporting my small eco business. Whether it be liking and sharing my posts, saving bottles, shot glasses or packaging, or buying my creations to light up your homes. I couldn't do it without you🥰

Christmas is not always easy for everyone. But I hope if you do find it tricky that you can draw on memories of happier times and find comfort. 🤗

See you in the New year 😃Lots of Love

Yes 😃I've worked out how to add an extra shipping profile if any last minute Christmas shoppers need to order before the big day.

So for £1 extra you can now choose 1st Class delivery with Royal Mail.

Just make sure you give me time to gift wrap and package as my local Post office closes at lunch time on Saturday 20th.
