Caring For Your Wooden Brushes & Utensils
Wooden brushes with natural fibre bristles & wooden utensils for your home are a beautiful alternative to the billions of plastic items that end up in landfills every year. Wooden alternatives last as long – if not longer - than plastic ones, not to mention they are far easier on the eye.

In season now, Guava jelly has many uses it can be used as a beautiful fruit paste on a cheese board, added to sauces or as a tart jelly in place of Jam. I personally use it like Jam as I love the floral sourness it has.
Covid 19 resourcefulness and resilience.
In amidst the chaos that is Covid19 and the uncertainties we face as a nation we are going to use this time to try and be positive, resourceful and resilient. We have an amazing opportunity to really rethink what is important to us. We are being forced to slow down, think of others and adapt to the new situations that are being presented to us. Many people during this time will be living with less, we want to show you some ways in which you can be resourceful, live with less and how to make the most of the food you have and not let it go to waste.
We are open, but posting after lock down has been lifted.
We have talked to The Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment, The Ministry of Health and the Covid-19 Government response team. We have been assured that because we fall under the FMCG category with our toiletries and personal care & hygiene products and because we operate online only, we can stay open. Orders will be sent on Mondays & Thursdays to lighten the load on our courier. All pick-ups and deliveries will be contactless.
Living simply - how to declutter responsibly.
The Marie Kondo effect has resonated with many, sparking a mass decluttering by people all over the world. This has now sparked the growing concern that unwanted objects from such clear-outs are not being disposed of responsibly, either being dumped at overflowing charity shops or ending up in landfill. Whilst I have no problem with anyone decluttering and minimising what they have, I do it myself! We all need to make sure we are disposing of these items responsibly. This guide covers how you can ethically rid yourself of items that no longer bring you joy.
Finding your perfect menstrual cup
Finding your perfect menstrual cup size can sometimes take a bit of trial and error. Despite what many people think, leaking can often be a sign a cup is too big rather than too small. If you are unsure of size, we recommend getting a double box to help take the guess work out of things.
The Pits; why you should go natural under the arm.
THE PITS! They're a smelly bunch. Naturally, we all want our friends to stay close and our enemies closer, so have no doubt been rather UNnaturally slathering aluminium based antiperspirant deodorants on our underarms to keep the sweat at bay. Unfortunately, the toxic load on our systems from these heavy-metal-laden deodorants is hugely detrimental to our health.

Waste Broth - the newer, cooler version of Bone Broth
We have been making stock (or if you’re cool ‘Bone Broth’ – I’m not cool) for years. We buy whole organic chickens, break them down ourselves and together with saved veg scraps, that we keep on the freezer, we make a beautiful broth from food that would have otherwise been thrown out. Find out here exactly how we make our stock.
