Who am I?

I am a self-employed mom to 2 boys and a very patient husband (aren't all husbands of creatives!). We live in the beautiful seaside town of Umina Beach on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.

Bee's Knees Eco Store has evolved from a market stall with one table, at one monthly market to a lively little business, attending regular markets around the Central Coast, Sydney, Newcastle and Lake Macquarie regions, as well as supplying a number of businesses around the Central Coast.

I started making beeswax wraps out of frustration at how costly they were to buy and also the lack of options available. I wanted to be able to choose my own sizes and patterns so I started making wraps in different sizes using funky, fun fabrics and selling them at affordable prices.

DIY Kits were born when customers started asking if I sold wax. I thought it would be a great idea to provide a kit with everything included where you are able to choose your fabric from a selection and get all you need to be able to make your own beeswax wraps. The kit is easy enough for a child and great fun for an adult too!

One of our most popular products is the Unpaper Towels. Unsatisfied with the amount of kitchen cloths I was using to wipe up silly spills, I started sewing the unpaper towels and they sure are a huge hit! They are fabulous for cleaning up messes in the kitchen and around the house as well as little faces and hands. Use either wet or dry and pop into the washing machine to be cleaned when soiled.

I love all things eco-friendly and reusable! I hope you enjoy browsing my store and please know that all products are made with the utmost care and with my customers in mind.
