Conservation Crafts can make unique handmade gifts for, birthdays or weddings, home decor or wedding favours. I am a zookeeper in Scotland. Whilst educating the guests who came to the zoo about deforestation and wildlife conservation I realised I wanted to do more to support these issues. I began small fundraisers through work to raise money for charities such as The World Land Trust and Rainfores
t Concern. When these events were over I still wanted to do more. I began woodburing as a hobby and made several pyrography keyrings featuring different animals for my co-workers at the zoo. I received high praise for the standard and quality of work and I soon began posting pictures of my designs on my personal Facebook account. The response was positive and I soon began receiving messages and comments suggesting I sell them. I created Conservation Crafts to sell my designs to family members and friends and donated a portion of the money made from each keyring, to support some of my favourite animal charities. I now sell many different designs for some of the animal species whom are most in need of aid. I hope with continued support that Conservation Crafts can grow and really make a difference for wildlife worldwide!
