Small batch production

Overproduction & overconsumption is hurting our planet and all beings. 

We recognize our responsibility to combat this critical issue and make eco-friendly choices easily accessible to our customers.

Our solution is simple & effective:
  • Create high-quality, timeless products you can gift & use for years
  • Don't chase fleeting trends that lead to high turnovers
  • Manufacture in small batches to minimize overproduction & waste
  • Release limited-edition collections, offering our customers the opportunity to own something exclusive and unique
  • Work with manufacturers & suppliers who prioritize sustainability and offer eco-friendly solutions

Upcycling initiatives

Turning problems into opportunities is the essence of creativity.

We takes misprints, imperfect products, and extra samples and turns them into something beautiful and useful.

Our collaborations with like-minded brands such as Magpies & Peacocks and Kapdaa_Offcut is a great example of this. With their team of expert artisans, we transformed imperfectly printed tea towels into stunning upcycled accessories and gift baskets.

See for yourself the magic that can happen when we find creative ways to reduce waste and create something extraordinary.

OUR MATERIALS & FABRICS

Eco-friendly from start to finish

We believe beautiful things don’t have to cost our planet. That’s why we only use high quality fabrics & materials that are good for the environment. Here are a few that we often use in our products. 

Lenzing Modal

“It’s so soft!” 
That’s the first thing we hear when our customers touch & feel our gorgeous scarves. 

Reason? Our scarves are made from Lenzing Modal fabric, produced from beechwood tree pulp. This cruelty-free, breathable fabric is softer than silk and traditional cotton. It's perfect for all seasons (even Houston like summer) and won't itch or irritate your skin. Plus, it's eco-friendly, and plant-based fabric.

Treat yourself and experience this cloud-like softness for yourself!

Absorbent. Durable. Higher quality.

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is a healthier choice for your home & the planet.

Unlike conventional cotton, Organic Cotton is grown in pesticide-free soil, which keeps the soil healthy and fertile. It's harvested after the plants naturally defoliate, and it's whitened and finished using non-toxic processes.

It's absorbent and durable quality makes it the perfect choice for our tea towels and placemats. Plus, our vibrant designs make them the perfect addition to your home.

Uncoated. Textured. Bleed proof.

Recycled Paper

Our paper products are made with recycled paper, created from post-consumer waste.

It helps save trees, prevent paper from ending up in landfills, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Trust us, it's a no-brainer!

We partner with eco-friendly printers and wherever possible, use soy-based and vegetable-based inks, FSC-certified paper, and carbon offsetting. The unique texture of our uncoated paper products makes them perfect for coloring, and they are easy to recycle and compost at home.

If you're an old schooler & love paper goods, shop our wide selection of journals, cards, notepads & more.

We strive to use materials that are good for our planet.

A purpose-driven brand stays true to its values, even in tough times. Our core value is kindness to Mother Earth and all beings, within & without.

So we avoid these fabrics & materials...
  • We firmly believe in protecting marine life and do not use petroleum-based fabrics that release microplastics
  • As a cruelty-free brand, we do not use leather, wool, suede, or silk. Instead, we prefer newer eco-friendly materials like plant-based leather, cupro, and Tencel that are better for the planet.
  • We don't use paper that' can't be recycled, such as glossy, shiny, and coated paper, including glitter

We take our commitment to sustainability seriously and refuse to compromise on the materials we use in our products.
