The internet just taught me something. The fitted sheet drying on the underside of the clothes horse. Ha!! This is why I love a happy corner of the internet. Also SPRUCE out on the line letting the UV do its thing because the sun is free and it works harder than I do.

Sun’s out. All is well.

Your fave HANK designs are re-launching Sunday, plus the two brand new ones I’ve been sitting on for weeks.

All designs 1-12 will be restocked alongside
13. Lucky Charms
14. Forget-me-not

Autumn is here, which means hayfever isn’t done with us, cold mornings are coming & at some point very soon you’re going to need something for your face.

Can we talk about what that something currently is?
Because if it’s a dissolving tissue or .. a café serviette grabbed on the way out the door, we need to have a words.

HANK are certified organic cotton. Toxin free. Beautiful enough to pull out without apology.

2 new designs. One for the hopeful and one for someone you love.

I designed HANK as a long time user of hankies to help others rediscover a forgotten hero.

WHY HAVE THEY SOLD OUT AGAIN! Each design carries a meaning making them the perfect gift, and beautiful enough to pull out of your pocket without embarrassment. They are soft, kind to sensitive skin and washable 100’s of times.

SOLD OUT designs are back in store in one week and 2 new designs are joining the line up. I’m super excited to share these and my sneaky workshop colleagues have already glimpsed and grabbed some!

Thank you for loving them and making me order more.

I was tired of the greenwashing that tissue are ‘just paper. We need to ask what we touch our face with everyday. Many conventional tissues are treated with chemicals like formaldehyde (for wet strength) and bleaches which can cause skin dryness, irritation, or contact dermatitis THEN topped with a fragrance and additives.

Here’s to you looking considerably more organised than those around you + the smug look on your face when you find a handkerchief in the washing machine. Sniff you later tissues!!

They’re back 45 only. Saturday 9am. Instore at Bridge Street Studios + online.

If you missed the last BANNER Tote Bag drop, this is your second chance. Each one is handmade in Nelson from repurposed advertising signage. No two are the same, and when they’re gone, they’re gone.

Two banners and one banner from the Nelson clocktower. Mostly totes and a few backpacks.
