Sustainability

Eco-conscious products crafted with care.

You’ve probably noticed my love for illustrating the natural world! That’s why sustainability is at the heart of everything I do -from the design of my products and the materials I use to the location of my studio shop.


I'm happy to say that all of my products are made in the UK. This vastly reduces transport emissions, and helps support our local and national economies.

Art Prints

I personally print each reproduction in my studio using water-based inks on Hahnemühle Photorag, a 100% cotton, museum-quality paper with exceptional longevity.

The paper is made from cotton linter fibres that are a byproduct of the textile industry.

Designed to last over 100 years, my prints will retain their beauty and vibrancy for generations to come.

Greetings cards

My greetings cards are printed in the UK using vegetable-based inks on sustainably sourced cardstock, all powered by 100% green energy.

My single greetings cards are packaged in clear, biodegradable, compostable bags made from vegetable starch. Sets are wrapped with a recycled paper band.

Soft Cover Notebooks

My softcover notebooks are made with FSC certified 100% recycled paper, using different weights for the cover and inner pages. This recycled paper is made entirely from de-inked post consumer waste.

My designs are printed with organic pigments, and are not laminated, making the notebooks completely recyclable.

Notepads

My notepads are made from 100% recycled paper and are printed using vegetable inks using green energy.

Bookmarks

My bookmarks are printed on FSC certified 100% recycled cardstock.

They're printed using vegetable inks using green energy.

My bookmarks are not laminated, so remain fully recyclable.

Mugs

My mugs are made start to finish in Stoke on Trent, with my designs carefully applied before kiln firing.

Each mug is packaged in a recycled craft box, hand stamped with a floral motif.

Cotton Totes & Cushions

All the fabric for my tote bags and cushion covers is made from GOTS-certified 100% organic cotton.

You might notice small imperfections in the print caused by tiny cotton pips that can release during finishing or washing. I believe these natural imperfections are a worthwhile trade-off for avoiding fabrics with plastic fibres.

Low & no plastic packaging

A very high percentage of my orders (around 99%) ship without any plastic at all. As an added bonus they look sweet, wrapped up nice in their little cardboard and paper houses!

I’m always seeking new ways to eliminate plastic from the last 1% of my orders, relying on innovations in the printing and packaging industries. Hopefully, better solutions will be available within the very near future.

Repair & reuse

My products are made to last, but everyday wear and tear happens - chips, scuffs, and scratches are inevitable. Instead of recycling, try repairing or repurposing them for a new life.

Cushion Covers & Tote Bags – Made from 100% organic cotton, these can be easily repaired with cotton thread or fabric patches from a haberdashery. If the damage is too big to fix, cut around it and repurpose the fabric into something new- maybe a small makeup bag or purse.

Mugs – A chipped mug doesn’t have to be thrown away! Repair it with an epoxy designed for ceramics. If it’s cracked or broken, use epoxy glue, press the pieces together, and secure it with an elastic band while it sets. Once repaired, it can still be used for drinks- or repurpose it into a snazzy little plant pot!

Recycle

If repairing or reusing your item isn't an option here's some information about recycling it:

Fabric

Recycle in textile banks at supermarket recycling points or your local recycling centre.

Paper

All my paper products are free from lamination, making them easy to recycle at home.
