A couple from north Norfolk have started a business which transforms "old, unwanted treasures" into unique lamps.
Kit Gill and Ellis Sullivan, who live in Sheringham with their dog Frankie, started building up The Making People around 18 months ago.
Mr Sullivan built a workshop from scratch in their back garden and they each stepped from their jobs in retail and care support to focus on crafting their products.
Their website went live earlier this month.

"The idea of recycling and repurposing old treasures has always been close to our hearts," Ms Gill said.
"Our vision is to find old, unwanted treasures and bygones and bring them back to life and purpose by illuminating them.
"We really use our imaginations to make our lights stand out, using a range of materials from Tilley lamps and telescopes to spinning wheels and speaker stands."
The pair always wanted to work for themselves but finally took the "leap of faith" after Mr Sullivan's mother passed away.

"Her dying wish was for us to start the business," Ms Gill added.
"She always supported us and she was the best mother-in-law you could ask for.
"She will always be a part of what we do and create."
All their lamps come with a 12-month guarantee and there are currently five collections to browse on The Making People website.
