As the stars rise and we enter this season of reflection and renewal, we’re sharing a little stardust of our own.
We’ve created 500 hand-crafted stars, made from reclaimed MDF and engraved with the words “My Wish.” They're gifts from our hands to yours — perfect for painting, sharing, or simply holding close as you set intentions for the year ahead.
This is more than a giveaway. It’s a small act of aroha — a way to reconnect with each other, with the environment, and with the spirit of new beginnings.
We’ve already gifted over 500 Easter and Mother’s Day decorations across the Coast, and would love to share this next one with you.
✨ Collect yours in Silverdale (weekdays)
✨If you can Like and leave a comment on how many stars you would like we can message you directly
🌿 Calling all builders & businesses with leftover MDF, perspex, or timber offcuts? We’d love to hear from you so we can turn your scraps into something beautiful. We transform waste into meaningful, creative products that uplift mental health and community well-being.
