Seamstress available for project/commission work
Kia Ora everyone!
I hope this is ok but I thought this might be worth a shot. I’m self-advertising my services as a seamstress! I can do alterations, (starting at $15 for a basic pant hem) and made-to-measure items with flexible payment plans.
I’m looking to take on a couple more commissions/projects on the side as I fundraise to represent Aotearoa at this years Prague Quadrennial in the Emerging Artists section!
I’ve got over 5-years experience in both costume and fashion design so I’ve got a good range of skills for making and mending. I will literally work with anything, anyone and everyone which I know can be a struggle to find the right person sometimes. If you want to check out more of my work, you can go to my website www.houseofhunters.org... or my Facebook/Instagram pages House of Hunters Clothing ☺️
So if you’ve got some things lying around the house that never quite fit right, or you’ve got an event/occasion/empty wardrobe that you need a garment for, you can email me at j_walker19@hotmail.com or text at 0220662190 to get chatting!

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
