Floral and sweet, my art comes from the moments I’ve spent tending plants in my garden.
Sustainability is important to incorporate in each aspect of my shop and art practice.
I want to take as many steps as I can to lessen my impact and on the consumers end.
To ensure safe delivery and the best for the environment I’m using packaging that prioritizes minimizing waste. I include plastic covering for paper products only so that they will last on their journey out.
By buying from reputable companies like EcoEnclose and choosing mailers and envelopes that are recycled from post consumer waste I can balance quality with actions that fit my values.
Using sturdy mailers takes out the needed for filler cardboard in packaging. I like to limiting paper waste in packaging and in the process of making art (which means keeping fun paper shapes.)
I specifically use Akua Inks because they don’t require harsh or toxic chemicals to clean up. Akua inks are light fast quality pigments that actively reduce waste in the print studio. I have art series that reuse resources instead of consuming more and I find that transformation to be beautiful.
Plastic Sleeve - works really well for storing important papers or keeping them dry. They also can be used to make tiny windows in a doll house.
Tissue paper - perfect to wrap gifts in especially if it’s a small jewelry box.
Mailers - these are great for impromptu cutting boards for taking an exacto knife to paper. They make great pompom templates for wrapping yarn around.
