Waste Non! Vintage and upcycled gifts, home decorations and many more

Why Cats and Birds? Well, we're one of those people who simply can not commit to a single line of design, colours or favourites: we have lots and lots of different projects that might seem like a chaotic bundle but it comes together in the end. There are so many wonderful things around us, we have failed to commit to only one, so the name was chosen to show that some things might seem like opposites but they can also be harmonious together. Growing up in a small village close to nature had taught me how to make use of everything: starting from veggie scraps and dried flowers all the way to broken crockery. As a kid it often seemed silly and not fair using only what we already had and I was many times jealous of others those who always had something new instead of the patched and mended, but now this is what makes the centre of me. My grandma had a passion for flowers as does my Mom and so I am a crazy digging-for-5-hours person. I believe that everything can be a flower pot so have my garden full of unusual potted plants: in wellies, handbags, vintage telephones. If you're interested in how I make use of every day objects in an unusual way then you can read my blog and see what's new every month. There's also an Instagram photo book of the daily life of Cats and Birds and sister brands: Paws&Tails, Moody Indigo Photography, Wandering Books Society and Unique by Veronique. You can read more about each project under each collection.
