Sweetness and Threads

“I have always made stuff, whether its cakes or toys but really started a few years ago making toys to give away, it started with the church I was attending and they provided stockings for a local mobile home park for all the kids so I wanted to participate, I had a bunch of fabric, didn’t have money to go buy gifts so I was like well I will just make them and it grew from there. We moved a year and a half ago and I started making toys for the Angel tree and now its become a thing I do. I make and give away to people that cannot give anything back. Being able to bring a smile to a child’s face and help provide a gift under the tree where there might not have been one is the best feeling in the world.

Because I can, as a child we were poor and I remember my Gran making my toys and I treasured them over all the gifts I got.  I know what it’s like to have nothing and I am not rich now but God has given me talents and I will use them as long as I am able. I get to bring joy into little people’s lives.” shared Anna Drennan.
