Scott and Sue, experienced teachers and community workers with over 20 years in the field, have a long-standing passion for upcycling. It was the encouragement from friends and family, eager to recreate the inventive pieces they’d seen in Scott and Sue's home, that inspired them to share their skills. Now, more than eight years later, Scott and Sue offers Black Paw upcycling experiences in their workshop, helping people craft their own upcycled projects and learn skills they can use at home. Recently, they’ve expanded their courses to include van-to-campervan conversions, resin crafting and building fire pits from car wheels, bringing creativity and sustainability to a whole new level.
