Beeswax Wraps

updated on April 21, 2020April 21, 2020Leave a Comment on Beeswax Wraps

The beeswax wraps are a hit now but it’s not something the humanity came up with just now. I remeber my mom packing my lunch in a clean cloth that I used as a napkin at school. So in a way with the beeswax wraps we’re coming back to something from the past that we …

Handbag from old jeans

updated on February 15, 2020March 31, 20193 Comments on Handbag from old jeans
