Our shop is now closed for 2024 and we wish you a very happy Christmas. We are grateful for every order received this year and look forward to 2025. The sewing machine needs a service and we need a break, so we’ll see you soon.

Thanks for visiting our shop. You will find a variety of household items and gifts here, mostly with an Eco-focus - things that can be used and reused without costing the planet or emptying your wallet. We use up scraps, repurpose materials and prioritise natural new materials. We love colour and our products are attractive, environmentally friendly and useful. We don’t want to be preachy - just to make things that are a pleasure to use.
If you spot something you’d like in a different colour combination or other feature, drop us a message and ask - many things are possible.

I love experimenting with the materials I have. This is such a great way to use sheep’s fleece and waste wool products and is fun to do.

Full description

We are living in difficult times with high daily costs. If you rely on your tumble dryer to keep your laundry under control, you may find these tumble dryer balls an asset. Pop them in with your clothes and bedding and they will speed up the drying process and so save you money. They do this by absorbing some of the moisture from your laundry as well as creating a better environment for hot air to circulate by opening up spaces between the items. They also smooth out creases and soften towels. These balls can be used over and over again, are plastic free and won’t release any toxic chemicals into your dryer. When they reach the end of their useful life you can put them in your compost bin. This won’t be for a long time … I’ve been using mine for nearly 3 years and they are as good as new.

This listing is for a set of balls decorated to look a little like bumble bees – cheerful characters to help dry your washing. Choose whether you want a set of three or four. They are made mainly from waste wool products and are decorated using scraps of wool or fleece and a needle felting technique. They have been washed in the machine which causes the ball to felt together and become firm. They won’t unravel. They come with a drawstring storage bag. Each set of balls is unique and balls may vary in size as they shrink at different rates.

I will send this parcel using the Yodel delivery service unless you choose an alternative. I may use recycled packaging.
