Donated By Sadtinypanda
I’m a crafter specializing in handcrafted lightboxes that blend intricate paper art with ambient LED lighting.
Each piece is designed to bring a unique scene to life, whether it’s a tribute to a favourite game, book or a movie scene.
This year, I launched my Etsy shop—a big step for me, inspired by the confidence I gained from donating my work to Desert Bus for Hope.
Seeing how much my art could connect with others and support a meaningful cause was a turning point.
