Sustainable Practices

This is an ever growing list of the ways that we approach our business in a more sustainable manner:

  • Operate with one hundred percent certified renewable energy
  • Use only energy saving globes
  • Source as many materials as possible from local suppliers
  • Research new sustainable materials that we can use
  • Research ways to optimize our production process
  • Fabric off cuts are reused to make fabric covered brooches and buttons
  • Paper off cuts are reused for packaging, tags and note taking
  • Unused off cuts are donated to a local school for arts and crafts classes
  • Paper, containers, bottles and any packaging are recycled and reused when possible
  • All our packaging is one hundred percent recycled and biodegradable
  • We carefully consider our packaging and use as little as possible
  • We send our orders out in used or recycled boxes that we source from local businesses
