A lovely review and an order from Australia 🇦🇺 🥳🦘

Super happy with the progress made on my Etsy store, finally building some momentum again which I was worried wouldn't happen after closing my Shopify store.

Thank you for all my new followers, and all my old who continue to support me a year later 💜

So so excited to share with you something I'm working on in the background 🤗

We use 5 TRILLION plastic bags... per year ‼️

That's 160,000 per second ⏳ and over 700 a year for every single person on the planet 🌎

Less than 1% of plastic bags are recycle, and are most often made from polyethylene which takes centuries to degrade 😢

In fact it takes up to 1,000 years for one singular plastic bag to break down, and on average they're only used for 12 minutes 🤯

And to add to that, by 2050 the worlds oceans could contain more plastic than fish measured by weight 🐟

By making this simple swap from plastic bags to reusable tote bags you could replace 500 single-use plastic bags ♻️

And hey - you're saving money buying plastic bags 🎉

3️⃣ Use reusable cups/mugs/bottles instead of plastic 🥤

4️⃣ Have a desk plant 🪴

Here are some simple sustainable habits you can adopt in 2022 to lead a greener life.

1. Instead of throwing away empty jars or containers rom food or other essentials, you can repurpose or re-use these.
 For example, using containers for taking pack-up lunch to work or jars for storing pasta.

2. Using local refill stations to re-fill beauty products i.e. shampoo or body wash, and also for topping up on food
3. Reducing the use of transport by walking or cycling places if you can, the warmer days and lighter nights are upon us so there’s no excuse.
4. Using plastic free alternatives wherever you can, whether it be a reusable water bottle or shampoo bars instead of shampoo in plastic bottles.
5. Composting food scraps instead of throwing away and adding to methane gases.
6. Freezing left over food rather than throwing away if there’s enough for a meal in the future as this can help reduce food waste.

Here are just a few simple ways you can live a more sustainable life in 2022, do you have any other habits you’re adopting?

What’s all the fuss about bamboo?

Bamboo is being used more than ever now to make products due to its high sustainability.

Bamboo takes 5-7 years to reach full strength potential compared to 60 years for a hardwood tree to mature making it the fastest growing plan on the planet.

In line with this, bamboos can also reach up to 60 feet making them a very large plant and release 30-35% more oxygen than a normal hardwood tree.
