The climate emergency is often on my mind, and hopefully on yours too. Since I set up my shop last summer, I thought the best thing to do is stay eco-friendly from the outset, so here's all you need to know about it.

Firstly, where do I source my prints? The printing company I work with is based in Leeds, UK which means my products have a low carbon footprint. Also, the company offsets their paper CO2 emissions through the Woodland Trust and Woodland Carbon scheme; this scheme plants native woodland right here in the UK to recapture any CO2 emissions from the company's paper purchase!

When I post my products to you, I reuse old envelopes, cardboard, tissue paper and brown paper because I believe in Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - in that order. This doesn't mean the quality is any lower! I also use brown paper tape, so your whole package can either be reused or go in your paper or compost bin.

Hopefully this resonates with you and happy shopping!
