Hi there!
I’m Catherine. I’m here to show you how you can reduce your waste, by making instead of buying.
As a society, we are told we need to consume, but at what cost?
Everything that we buy took time to make. The materials themselves also had to be produced or collected somehow.

By making from scratch, you’re fighting back. You’re coming more self-reliant.
