Support Local-Support ART
As a small business and a worker within my own community, it has always been very important for me to also be supporting other small business in my community and beyond. I try my best to purchase from my local businesses but sometimes due to the closures of too many local supply and product businesses and services, I do need to get online to reputable interstate and sometimes overseas businesses and suppliers. During these uncertain and troubling times, small business is what will keep all of us connected and holding hope for our future moving forward from all that has occurred and is occurring around us all.
We need to continue to support all small businesses and services - Support every business within our communities - to ensure they remain accessible and affordable to each and every one of us that purchase from them or need their services.
The sharing of information and knowledge has almost been of the utmost importance to me, if I don't have it, or can't do it, I ALWAYS share who, I know with confidence, does and can.
I share the small businesses, NFP's and other services I support, proudly, and hope that any visitors here also visit them to show them their support or assists them to engage with their own local small businesses, NFP's and services in their own community.
I also have a small Facebook group aimed at helping, sharing knowledge and growing both myself and those I connect with into truly unique, one of a kind creators

Support Knight HTV
I had been using interstate and overseas online purchasing since 2000 until I found Lana and Steve just 'down' the road a few years ago! Now, even though they have moved down south I still get to catch up with them once a month when they venture north and they offer a FREE pick up service every 2 weeks here in Byford WA!
Go visit their website - these two have kept on keeping on even with all that is happening around them and us and I am so excited for them with their newly established and delicious range available now they have the space to do so. They are my main supplier of ALL Sublimation blanks and offer one heck of a Design, Print and Supply service for larger orders at a price that is extremely affordable AND competitive. Nothing is ever too much and like with me, Lana will happily answer ALL queries ASAP - Visit their site or Facebook page and you too will be happily supplied with all your HTV, Sublimation & Craft Vinyls & Stuff to be creative with!
Super fast postage if you need it in a hurry! Bulk orders always assisted with, an amazing treasure trove of a physical store (makes for a relaxing day trip an hour down the road from my home) and of course the legendary FREE Pickup service every two weeks AND FREE Postage on ALL orders of $99.00au
Not only do they supply all you could wish for in HTV and Crafting Vinyls, but the support, before during and after and amazing, friendly attitude towards their customers is legendary!

Within My Community - Dahut Creations by Waterwench©
It is OK to say "I am NOT Okay"
Since 1985 I have been involved with and helped to establish and raise funds for many of the local and government bodies and agencies I have been connected to. I have quietly behind the scenes donated my time and my art to assist with much needed funds to keep these vital groups running and help those who need them. These NFP's (Not For Profit) organisations and charities are a VITAL part of all our communities
I have done all of this not for anything but the knowledge that something I created helped those at a time they needed it most.
It is ALWAYS Ok to reach out and say I AM NOT OK
Free Art Friday was my favourite - once every month on a Friday I anonymously left a piece of artwork, with only my initials and date on it, wrapped in bright paper with a letter attached explaining what the art work or item was and why I had left it there and a little sign saying - 'FREE ART FRIDAY - Please take me I am YOURS' attached to it - at local cafes, under park benches, the beach, the police station, court house, Local Government Buildings and shopping centres.
I had stopped doing this in 2017 with the arrival of our youngest but have now decided to start this up all over again this time once a month (our world is too dark and shady these days) - my way of adding a little colour to our world and giving thanks without praise or recognition! Next time you are about and about, look around you - You just never know - if you happen to see this little parcel - please accept it from me to you - with hope - for a brighter day.

Local Primary School - Fundraiser Gifts
Latest donated designs and gifts for our little ones school - She started calling me 'BRUH' last year and it tickled my warped sense of humour so I designed myself a shirt with 'BRUH - formerly known as Mumma' on it and then created keychains for the 2024 Mother's Day Stall using that saying and a lot of the left over blanks from previous orders!
I do all of this not for anything but the knowledge that something I created helped those at a time they needed it most.
Supporting Community costs nothing but a little time
