Sustainability

All of the silk used in both jewelry and scrunchies is either repurposed, remnants, or Peace Silk made in India.

Whenever possible, other materials are also sourced second-hand. Any new Materials, including beads, metals, fiber, and textiles are sourced from small (and local when possible) businesses that support fair trade and/or sustainability.

In the studio, any and all excess fiber and materials from projects is saved and later re-used with a zero waste policy.

All hand-dyed work is dyed with natural and fiber reactive dye in small batches.
