Respect the Earth
As part of my efforts to reduce paper waste, packaging slips will no longer accompany orders unless specifically requested (if you would like to request a packing slip, simply add a message in your order notes at checkout).
I will still package your order with lots of love, and make things look as pretty as I can! But packing slips aren't a necessity, since order details can be reviewed anytime electronically from your confirmation email.
In addition to this - I am continuing on the journey to my goal of packaging only using recyclable and compostable materials! So as not to create extra waste, I am using up any and all packaging supplies I currently have (orange kraft mailers, colourful poly / bubble mailers, etc). Once that supply is depleted, I will be expanding my stock of 100% compostable and 100% recyclable mailers, clear flap bags, and more.

April is Earth Month
- Switching over to printing my own packaging labels at home on eco-friendly, recyclable and/or compostable sticker paper whenever possible
- Switching shipping & packaging materials to eco-friendly alternatives moving forward in order to cut down on single-use plastic packaging
- Recycling previously loved cardboard shipping boxes whenever possible, to extend the shelf life of perfectly good boxes!
- Turning off lights and electronics when not in use
- Reaching for reusable drinkware instead of single-use disposables
