IN a forgotten historical village in Pinetown, there is a little gem charity and crafter’s shop called Once Upon a Time.
The shop is located in an old farm-style house with a wrap-around veranda in Pineville Craft Junction, 81 Stapleton Road, (opposite Sandy’s Centre) Pinetown.
This house was originally built in the Manors and was taken down and rebuilt at Pineville Craft Junction by Ken Tibbett and his team more than 30 years ago.
This ‘little gem’ has been going for more than a year and has now expanded to include a small tea garden, which offers homemade goodies, a book room, children’s and baby room, crafters and charity rooms. Anyone who feels like going back in time, can pop into the shop and browse around.

Danielle represents Role Model Foundation (RMF) and as part of her reign, she would like to help RMF open a campaign for anti-bullying in KZN.
The fact that the Role Model Foundation is not widely known in Durban, Danielle will be selling lollipops and hoping for any kind of help so that she can start printing materials to bring the anti-bullying awareness to the Highway community.
