Swipes by Sophie - reusable makeup wipes for sale
Posted on behalf of my daughter:
Hi, I’m Sophie and I’m 9 years old.
Ever since I was 4, I have been asking Mum if I can have a market stall to make and sell things. Finally, she has said yes!
We have been learning about sustainability at my school, and I wanted to make something that would help reduce waste. When my mum ran out of her cotton wool pads that she uses for her makeup, she thought she might make some out of cotton, instead of buying a new packet. I asked if I could help, and had so much fun I decided to make them for my stall.
Mum has also knitted some out of cotton that are nice to use as well.
I hope you will buy some of my swipes so I can keep having fun sewing them, and help you make less rubbish.
If you’d like to buy some, just send my mum a private message, or contact me on my Facebook page (search for Swipes by Sophie)
Thanks!
Sophie
From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”

Poll: When do you shop the sales?
Bargain hunters made the most of Boxing Day sales at Centre Place and The Base in Hamilton on Friday.
However, a marketing expert believes Boxing Day sales, long a staple of Kiwi life post-Christmas, is on the outer as Black Friday becomes more popular.
