These little guys are from the  Noferin website. The Pecanpals are a series of wooden creatures, that are made from sustainably harvested rubber wood. How awesome! I really wanted to buy one, but all the wooden ones are sold out.

I recently completed this image for my friends wedding, it will be used for the front of their wedding invite. The birds I have used are native Tasmanian birds, a female and male blue wren.  Alecia and her partner Mark seemed quite thrilled with the end result. My partner, Tom is working on the typography, we have decided to print the invite on recycled stock, Tudor Kraft. I can’t wait to see them printed.

Molly McGrath is a skilled architect and used the method of  laser cutting to make many of her architectural mock-ups. She saw the potential of this method and utilised this process to make many intricate and unique pieces of jewellery. Molly sells her collections under the brand Moll M Designs. Not only are these designs beautifully crafted they are also environmentally conscious. Molly wherever possible sources sustainable materials such as; bamboo, veneer which is sourced from responsibly farmed forests and recycled suede and felt.

‘Molly gains her inspiration from patterns and form – a skyline, a bird in flight, a composition of branches, a snowflake, cracked concrete, botanical morphology, perspective, building geometries and optical illusions.’ source: http://www.mollymdesigns.com/

‘Loop connects a love of modern design with an appreciation for nature. By creating useful art in a way that respects our planet’s resources, Loop acknowledges the connection

Loop products are beautiful, organic, hand-drawn patterns, shapes and forms. Apart from being visually stunning they also use eco-conscious materials. Loop gift cards and wrapping paper are printed on recycled kraft stock with soy inks. The other amazing thing is that Loop donates 1% of their sales to environmental organisations worldwide, through an organisation called One Percent for the Planet. Which is a growing global movement of 857 companies which exists to inspire positive environmental change.
The message is simple: 1% for the Planet exists to build and support an alliance of businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet.

Another collection crafted by Elissa, founder of Loop designs, is Doodlespark. Doodelspark is a collaborative drawing process between mother and daughter.
Rather than writing letters to each other Elissa and her mother sent letters with drawings. The outcome of these ‘draw’ letters are a collection of drawings and paintings which you can buy online here.
