Hello, March! 🌸💧🍃

Inspired by the calm clarity of sea glass, this month’s aquamarine inspired birthstone represents courage, renewal and steady forward movement.

Each pendant is crafted from upcycled acetate, giving new life to materials, just as every new month offers a fresh start!

Top Drawer day ✌️

A few snaps from the show plus a peek at some of our bespoke pieces we design for museums and cultural spaces. Our new additions to our Stories and Huggies collections have been SO well loved too… we’re buzzing! ✨

Introducing Origins, a birthstone collection reimagined: not mined, but made!✨

Each pendant is handcrafted by our Makers using donated acetate, giving new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste. Because the acetate arrives in small, unpredictable batches, every colour run is limited, making each piece unique 🤩

Origins is about more than birth months. It’s about identity, renewal and the beauty of beginning again, something our Makers know deeply as they rebuild their lives through paid work, creativity and community 🫶

Wear your story and support theirs 💚

We need to talk about Christmas Crackers.

The waste. The plastic toys. The missed opportunity.

So we made our own! Handmade by our Makers with lived experience of homelessness and filled with a DIY acetate earrings kit so you can create jewellery and change ✨

Every cracker provides paid work, training and purpose to someone rebuilding their life 🫶

This year, make your Christmas table a celebration of making and meaning! 🎄

It’s been a real joy to read how programme participants (or Makers as we call them) have been impacted through our latest programmes.

Read for some snippets about what they (and hostel staff members) say about their experiences.

Next programme kicks off in just a few months! Do sign up to our newsletter for regular updates and to find out how our makers are getting on.

Off to the coast this weekend? 🏖️

Grab a book and a bookmark from our Beach Club trio for a stylish sustainable seaside scene (that’s a tongue twister and a half 👅)

We may not sell seashells by the seashore,
but we do sell shell-shaped bookmarks that slay by the shore 📚🐚

*May consider a free trio to whoever can say that in one go 😉*
