Upcycle Painting Workshop
Hi everyone,
There will be an upcoming Upcycling Painting Workshop that will be held over on the North Shore. Classes are fun, creative and allow you to reuse and make your home décor beautiful once more. Instructors will provide tips and tricks for making your tired old home décor pieces, look new and interesting again. We use discarded wood so that participants feel comfortable trying any painting technique they'd like. It allows for creativity and adventurous techniques. Most of the techniques used will aim to be quick, easy and more affordable over buying new stuff. It will give you the confidence and accomplishment to create your own work in your own style. Come along to hear and share new ideas and get personal support in your upcycling journey.
Location: Highbury Community House, 110 Hinemoa St, Birkenhead, Auckland
Date: Sunday 11 August
Time: 1 PM - 3 PM

welcome (& help) new neighbour
kia ora lovely neighbours
as some of you know, I love the marketplace on here - (you know people are LOCAL, easy to collect) - and meet such lovely neighbours in the process.
I did not click on the 'ad' for "free house hold stuff" - as I though were GIVING away stuff - and little I need right now.
oh when I did - a very easy mistake to make - ASKING for - not giving away
Amanda & her 2 sons (12 & 16) have just moved here, out west, from Wellington - and looking for a helping hand
so generous neighbours - is there anything surplus to your requirement that you can help Amanda with?
"Hi me an my two sons have just relocated to Glen Eden from Wellington an are looking for few things for our house kitchen table an chairs pots an pans an draws cabinets etc thank you"
"16 and 12 and we are needing dinning table and chairs vacuum kitchen stuff and draws for boys rooms"
I think I have a spare large frying pan - but can't help with the rest....
if you can't help, all good - just if you don't ask, you don't get - (so see Amanda's ad - in Marketplace - under "free house hold stuff" - for her contact info)
peace & love - arohanui
