Sustainability
It’s not perfect but I try my best to keep most of my packaging eco-friendly. I love purchasing most of my packaging from Eco Enclose.
⚘ All items are packaged in glassine/paper bags. These are curb-side recyclable.
⚘ Mailers are fully recyclable and naturally biodegradable. Please remove the shipping labels before recycling the mailers.
⚘ Shipping labels are printed with a thermal printer.
⚘ Ink stamps are used outside of mailers.
⚘ Thank you/business cards can be used as bookmarks or small art prints. Please use, send to a friend, or recycle.
⚘ When ordering products, I always opt to reduce plastic use.
⚘ Glue dots, which are used to attach patches and stickers on backer cards, are recycle compatible. The adhesive is easily removed from the paper repulping process.
For wholesale orders:
⚘ I use custom shipping boxes that are 100% recycled or USPS priority mail boxes.
⚘ I always ask stockists if they prefer with or without plastic clear bags. Most prefer without plastic. When a retailer opts for plastic, I try to purchase eco clear bags whenever it’s possible. Eco clear bags are made with PLA (Poly Lactic Acid obtained from plants).
⚘ I pack all wholesale orders with tissue paper that can be reused or recycled.
⚘ I never buy bubble wrap but I reuse ones that are sent to me.
⚘ I use water activated tape on boxes. I find this to be more durable than regular packing tape too.
