“Home is so important for all of us, I am happy to partner with Habitat for Humanity who work towards a world where everybody has a safe home. I love that upcycling gives all of us the opportunity to create something special at low cost; we don’t need to be limited by budget only by our imagination. I am looking forward to sharing some ideas at the Love your Home Exhibition” – Katrina Carroll
