Based on the mosaic tiled floors inside the Manchester Town Hall, this bee has been created with recycled and hand marbled papers. The worker bee symbol was adopted by Manchester in the Industrial Revolution (19th C) in which the city was a hive of activity & played a leading part; being strong is inbuilt within the city & its people. Life is full of joy & pain, but sometimes when it throws us more than we think we can bear, BEE STRONG, you’ve got this. Always have goals and ambitions, BEE-LIEVE and you will make it. Look around you, appreciate the things in life that make you BEE HAPPY. And you can always find good people and BEE TOGETHER.

Artify your morning cuppa, workplace brew or evening tipple! This set of four glossy hardboard coasters have been created from some of my original hand marbled and collaged pieces; they will withstand the hottest of brews or the coldest of cocktails and are easy to care for; simply wipe them clean with a damp cloth. Based on the mosaic tiled floors inside the Manchester Town Hall, this bee featured on an original piece of artwork that I created over an 18 month period, using recycled newspaper cuttings and hand marbled papers collaged together to recreate a section of the mosaic tiled floor. 10% of the net profit of my Manchester Bee items is donated to The Lord Mayor of Manchester’s Charity Appeal Trust.
