Hi, I am a Picton local. I am fascinated by the circular economy and want to do my part in reducing waste to landfill. HOW IT WORKS
1.
I'm collecting pre-loved furniture in Picton that could be given a new life instead of being taken to the tip - to reduce waste to landfill, upskill and to make human connections in our local community. I have begun to upcycle furniture because I am enjoying being creative through the process, am upskilling myself and prefer to source local furniture to reduce my carbon footprint. Please send me a
pic of your used furniture and I'll confirm if I have capacity to upcycle it. (I am currently not doing in upholstery work).
2. I'll collect it from you.
3. Once I have upcycled it, I sell it on to someone to enjoy next. The sale covers my time put into upcycling the furniture, cost of materials and fuel to collect.
4. If you want to share a story with me about the furniture I'm happy to share it with the next person who owns your furniture:)
WHY GIVE YOUR FURNITURE AWAY
It saves you time and money for trip to the dump - especially if for only 1 or 2 furniture items.
*You'll get piece of mind that something you've used won't end up in landfill and your previously loved furniture will be sold to someone else to enjoy. I won't take on pieces which I won't be able to do up and sell on.
*If you drop off your furniture at the tip secondhand shop, you can't guarantee it will go to another home.
*You'll be upskilling someone! Me to start but if I enough furniture comes my way, I can ask others to work alongside me. THE HUMAN ELEMENT
I love the human element of meeting people and being able to pass on a story of a piece if it has one. It is a great way for me to meet others in the community, add love into what was yours and then sell onto someone who will enjoy the furniture in their home.
