After a career in the public service, Gilmore mum Priscilla Sheppard is loving her later-life job as a woodworker, making cool pet beds, among other items, that will be a part of this weekend's Handmade Market Canberra.
Her latest pet bed design is a mini-Canberra bus shelter, allowing the coolest moggie or doggie to sleep in a genuine national capital icon. And even the occasional rabbit.
"I had a dream about how to put one together and that was only four months ago. Since then, they've come together really easy," she said.
