eco friendly practices
I find eco friendly practices extremely important since I am trying really hard to leave as little impact on the planet as I can. I believe in slow fashion and sustainable practices in everything I do. I also don’t want to produce any products that create waste - that’s why all my packaging is recycled and recyclable. I also try to source all the materials I need for my art locally and always look for already wasted materials before buying new ones.
PACKAGING
My shop is plastic free!
I always use recycled boxes and recyclable and biodegradable paper mailers.
I use recyclable paper tape and paper stickers.
ART PRINTS
all my art prints, calendars, business and thank you cards… (anything printed on paper) is printed by a Slovenian local manufacturer that uses recycled paper only and high quality inks.
all the paper printed products are also recyclable.
FASHION (all details about fabric I use for each product are in every description)
i mainly use dead stock fabric / waste from Slovenian fabric manufacturers (but they all also have OEKO TEX standard 100 certificate)
I use a lot of second hand and gifted materials as well
All my pieces are made to order which means I am not producing any clothes or fabrics that could potentially end up as waste
I make all the pieces myself in my apartment
TUFTING
the yarn I am using is dead stock yarn from a Slovenian knitwear company
Cloth backing fabric is second hand
CERAMICS
I use engobe colors and glazes without toxic chemicals which makes them food safe
I recycle all my leftover clay
i use honeycomb paper instead of bubble wrap for packing
