Becca Hopkinson – Beba Bespoke

I have always been drawn to making and fixing things growing up, with an eye for details,a fascination for function and a love of the making process. I moved to Sheffield to study fine art and on to study the craftsmanship of furniture making. I set up as Beba Bespoke in 2008 making furniture and boxes. In 2010 I became a Mum which brought a scaling down to my work in both size and time available. I focused on specialising in box making and wooden gifts. Becoming a Mum also brought in a more colourful playful side to some of my work and a reawakening of my imagination to dream up new ideas.

I try only to use wood which has been ethically source or recycled from unwanted furniture. I also source other makers cast offs and waste off cuts to re purpose and turn into something beautiful.
