Description: Our social enterprise, The Nest Haberdashery is a recycling solution that diverts textiles from landfill and supports our mentoring and conservation programs.
reclaiming resources for the maker community Making space for women to connect through craft. It took a pandemic for handmade living skills like knitting, baking sourdough, crochet, sewing and boro mending to hit the headlines. Since 2012 we’ve seen the benefits of women connecting through craft, sharing skills and mentoring others.
We use the word craft as a way of describing handmaking skills. Using our hands promotes mindfulness, builds resilience through problem-solving and is an outlet for creativity.
This is the foundation of the Nest Community and we believe that when women support each other, incredible things happen . Volunteer
