My name is Hala. I'm 29 years old. I studied Social Work - Psychology in the university, but at the same time I was interested in Art. I used to teach art work for children in the institution where I worked.

One day I decided to leave my work at the institution, and to start my new hand made embroidery art work from home, which enabled me to be in touch with my interests in art, and also at the same time to help some unemployed uneducated mothers (as a social worker) who need financial help so as to raise their families.

So instead of giving them money as a charity, I give them the art materials, then I show them how to do the work (stitch), after that I finalize it.

Leaving a job in an institution is really something not easy, but I think achieving goals in life is more worthy, by doing a combination between your study and your interests as well.

If you are interested in buying any of these or similar items, please contact me at hslab811@gmail.com and thank you very much for your interest.
