She Victorious, a local recycle fashion brand owned and operated by Sabrina Acraman, has launched its recycled jewellery collection.

Made from broken pieces of jewellery and cardboard, the 3R Manasseh collection is available online, where customers offer their best bid for the jewellery collection.

“Money raised from the auction will be used to finance the publicatio­n of a book I am working on,” Ms Acraman said.

“This is a first for me where online auctions are concerned.

“It helps put me out there in a new sphere, and helps with feedback.

“I’m not putting a price on any of my pieces, as I’d like the buyer to pay what they think each piece is worth.”

The 3R Manasseh collection is available on Facebook under Ms Acraman’s name.

“It is also available on Instagram under the brand name She Victorious,” she said.

She Victorious was launched online by Deputy British High Commission­er Paul Welsh this week.

“Saddened by the amount of rubbish produced daily by my own household, I decided to take a step towards creating a recycled jewellery line 3R Manasseh Collection,” Ms Acraman said.

With the help of her sister, the two used cereal boxes, cardboard, toothpaste packets and broken jewellery to design what they have under 3R Manasseh collection.

“In order to save the planet, we must begin at home,” she said.

“I’m not putting a price on any of my pieces, as I’d like the buyer to pay what they think each piece is worth,”

What is one place in Fiji you would take friends to?

The Beachouse, along the Coral Coast. It’s a great place to kick back.

What is your favourite place for a coffee or pie?

Snowy House at MidCity mall, Suva.

It’s clean, not noisy, and the staff are polite, and it’s close to home.

What is your favourite background spot?

My Suva Park, Nasese.

At night, the lights are magical.

What is one place on your bucket list? Taveuni.

I would like to go hiking up to the spot where the famous Tagimoucia plant can be found.
