Beverley, the Maker

Beverly's Journey starts like a lot makers we have had sell with us at Woolwich Makers Market, during lockdown in 2020. Both her and her partner began to create sculptures from bits they found in their garden. It's not surprising that this period of time inspired them both, as Beverly explains how at the beginning it was part of a house clearing exercise, using lots of things they had collected over the years.

Like most of us, they kept in touch with friends and family over video calls, and during these calls they would show what they had been up too which was mostly their upcycling projects. They were overwhelmed with words of encouragement from their friends and family, and Beverly credited their encouragement to sell their work.

Beverly now has a great arrangement with her friend who works as an archaeologists, which means she can get access to resources which would have otherwise ended up in landfill. You will find Beverly selling at lots of local produce markets; Lesnes Abbey, Charlton House, Danson House, Severndroog Castle. They are currently working on building a website, but in the mean time if you can't catch them at a market please send them a Direct Message on Instagram if you would like to purchase something.
