Make it Special

🎨✨ Creativity was flowing at Make It Special this week! ✨🎨

This week, we let our creative sides shine as we got our hands messy and explored the wonderful world of clay. From beautiful wind chimes to unique handmade creations, everyone brought their own ideas to life and added their own personal touch.

There was plenty of laughter, conversation, and creativity as we shaped, moulded, and designed our pieces. It’s always amazing to see how the same materials can inspire such a variety of creations!

At Make It Special, it’s not just about the craft—it’s about taking time for yourself, connecting with others, and enjoying a welcoming and supportive space.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this week. We loved seeing your creativity come to life and can’t wait to see the finished results! 💚

On the 15th, Make it Special attended the community networking event at the Darling Range Hub with our very own community stall 💛

It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with local services, organisations, and community members while sharing more about what Make it Special does to support carers through creativity, connection, and community.

We loved meeting so many lovely people throughout the day, having meaningful conversations, and showcasing some of the crafts created within our group. Thank you to everyone who stopped by our stall to say hello and support what we do ✨

Some of our wonderful Make it Special members recently attended and helped out at the Biggest Morning Tea ☕💛

It was such a lovely day connecting with the community, sharing conversations, and working alongside some amazing local services. We also had the chance to help create some beautiful recipes with support from Foodbank WA — learning practical, budget-friendly meal ideas that were both delicious and accessible.

Thank you to everyone involved for creating such a welcoming and meaningful event. We always love opportunities that bring people together and strengthen community connections 💛

Make it Special will be attending the Kalamunda Community Networking Group community lunch on the 15th of May at the Darling Range Hub 💛

We’ll have a community stall set up sharing information about our group, the support we offer carers, and some of the wonderful crafts and connections created through Make It Special.

We’ll also have some handmade crafts available for purchase on the day. Every sale helps Make It Special continue to grow and assists us in purchasing more craft supplies so we can keep creating, connecting, and supporting carers in our community 💫

This is a lovely opportunity to connect with local community groups, enjoy a free lunch, and learn more about services and supports available in the area.
