For decades we’ve been encouraged to buy Australian Made and most Australians recognise the Australian Made logo. After all that 2020 has thrown at us, it is now more important than ever to support our local makers and family businesses in order to keep our economy strong.

Made by you Born out of a desire to find tasteful, affordable furniture and made from good quality timber, not finding exactly what she was looking for, Anna set up her little business in late 2019. She has created simple designs that can be customised online and arrive flatpacked to you. Easy to assemble, they not only look good, but they are as sustainable as possible. Made from a sustainably grown timber, called Paulownia, eco packaging and using a shipping company that is carbon neutral. Image Credit Instagram: @madebyyou.online |
