    After 20 years in office and accountancy work, Rebecca left her job in 2012 to work with a missionary organisation in Western Kenya in a children's home. After setting up a craft and jewellery making project with the children to help them in their future careers, her creative passion from childhood was re-ignited. Each item is individually handmade by Rebecca, in her home studio in County Antrim. Her paper letters are made from repurposed paper into beautiful and unique 3D effect words.
