All About My Packaging

Ever since I started my business last year, I’ve been passionate about using environmentally friendly packaging, and UK suppliers.

I thought I would tell you a bit more about it so you can understand a bit more about me and my products.

All of my smaller items likes cards, gift tags, small prints, bunting and cake toppers are packed in cute blue striped paper bags from Paper Bag Co who make all their products using FSC certified paper. I also like the fact that the bags remind me of pick and mix sweets too!

If you’re purchasing a larger print or a pet portrait commission, I use bio-degradeable cello bags from Eco Craft, and re purposed cardboard backing boards where possible.

All my business cards and thank you cards are also made from 100% recycled card from printed.com.

I’m hoping to develop a range of printed textile products in the future so I’ll be packing them in biodegradable plastic mailing bags too.

Finally all my cards come with recycled kraft paper envelopes, and my products ship in recycled brown paper board envelopes to keep them protected during their journey to you.

All my products are always printed on uncoated 100% recycled card and paper, using UK suppliers, so they are as sustainable as possible.

If you have any suggestions for other environmentally sustainable suppliers do let me know!
