I've decided to raffle off an upcycled pine chest of drawers in order to raise money for those in Ukraine. I can only imagine how scared and frightened they must be and I want to help in a way I know how.

The reason behind my design was after I saw an article of a lady offering sunflower seeds to Russian soldiers, I learnt that the sunflower, which is also one of my favourite flowers, is the flower of Ukraine 🌻

Last year I did a lovely little sunflower set of drawers which were really popular,  so I hope you like these just as much! 💛

I also found out that the national flag represents the blue sky and yellow corn fields. So this made my colour choice easy 🇺🇦

All donations go directly to the charity - I will not be taking any proceeds for myself.
