Every order arrives plastic-free, packed in recyclable and biodegradable materials so nothing ends up in landfill (or the ocean) after the unboxing. As someone painting Britain's wildlife, it matters to me that my packaging doesn't harm it. Boxes are recyclable, sourced from ethical supplier Priory Direct, and sealed with paper tape rather than plastic. Belly bands, thank you slips, business cards and stickers are all printed at home on recycled paper and card, so nothing extra is manufactured or shipped in. It's a small thing, but I want the experience of opening your order to feel as considered as what's inside it.

I choose environmentally-friendly and ethical materials in my products wherever possible, with organic cotton used for all of my textiles and a blend of hemp and recycled paper for all of my art prints. Products are made to last, too — I choose premium materials like fine bone china for my mugs and panama weave for my totes and tea towels. Every item I sell is made or printed in the UK to reduce carbon emissions and support local businesses. Art prints are made to order and other products are created in small batches to reduce overproduction and potential waste.

I often link specific products or entire design ranges to wildlife charities and donate a percentage from each sale. Most recently, I donated £100 to the Wildlife Trusts by setting aside a few pounds from every curiosity frame order, thank you to everyone who ordered one for making that possible! You'll find the details of each partnership at the bottom of the relevant product listing so check those out as you browse. I am always looking for new ways to support those caring for our local habitats and the species that live within them. Get in touch if you're interested in a future collaboration!
