In 2017 I took the leap to self-employment & that was the beginning of LEV Creations! With a passion to reduce reuse & recycle, LEV Creations took on the challenge to restore and add colour to any type of lumber or furniture that we could get hold of. LEV Creations encourages more people to appreciate both the beauty and also the good use of an otherwise waste material. Having several sustainabili
ty principles, designs of LEV Creations are mostly created using off-cuts (wood), scrap wood & bark wood. Handmade means that all our ‘creatives’ are handcrafted on a small scale with care and dedication by our own hands and thus become exclusive. We believe that a smaller production quantity allows us to give you a sense of uniqueness and contentment. The arts and crafts sector has potential to be a source of livelihood but in Sri Lanka there are plenty of barriers. Due to poverty, most local artists and craftsmen find it hard to peruse their passion and access a market for their ‘creatives’. Having that in mind LEV Creations encourages and has laid a platform for artists and craftsmen to showcase their skills and their individuality and get a price/value for their ‘creatives’. Our vision is to improve the livelihood opportunities for hidden artists and craftsmen by creating a platform to showcase their creations through a fair trade action. Our mission is to give the opportunity to empower and continuously develop the skills of our artists and craftsmen and update them with knowledge on market expectations so that there will be a sustainable demand for their creativity for them to achieve/fulfill their dreams in life.
