Susannah Brookes Sustainable Jewellery Design

About

Susannah Brookes Sustainable Jewellery Design creates unique, handcrafted contemporary designs from recycled silver which are made for giving, without excessive cost to the earth. This small family business has been created out of a love of making and a commitment to finding ways to reduce the impact on the environment. Susannah specialises in using lace to imprint its pattern onto the silver and her Nottingham lace collection celebrates the historic local craft of the area. Susannah Brookes Sustainable Jewellery Design also create elegant and timeless pieces using wedding lace – perfect gifts for bridesmaids using the lace from the bride’s dress, or an heirloom created using lace from a dress of the past which will never be worn again.

Sustainably made

Susannah Brookes Sustainable Jewellery Design’s business values are founded on kindness, on friendship, on communities supporting each other. Wherever possible Susannah uses sustainable materials. The silver she works with is 100% recycled, rather than being freshly mined; the workshop is free from single-use plastic, and rather than gift-wrapping in velvet-lined boxes, she has chosen to swaddle the pieces in soft bamboo wadding, silks and hemp.

Miyoung Studio

About

“I am a designer and creator. I started my fashion business after creating rustic patterns from my experiment with scrap copper and then applied it onto silk to create silk scarves and ties. Since then, I have designed minimal and practical items, the first being my canvas totes originally made for my three daughters and are still selling well. Recently, I have been inspired by Ellen Macarthur’s circular system so I now offer a sustainable service for my customers. I plant a tree for each order so that my customers have chance to help and participate in saving our world.”

“My products are made from natural fibres. They are all designed by myself and either handmade by myself or by my professional seam stress. I chose my designs and products as I believe in curating a long lasting, minimal and essential wardrobe.

“The act of taking something considered scrap and making something new, beautiful and cherished by its owner is a very rewarding process.”

Amber Cooper-Green

Amber Cooper-Green

About

Amber Cooper-Green is a Nottingham based jewellery designer, interested in the investigation of materials and simplistic forms. Her main focus currently is the combination of wood, acrylic and metal. She uses reclaimed exotic hardwoods, copper/silver, acrylic and steel nails to create statement fashion accessories. Each article is individually hand crafted and holds a certain warmth, transpired through both the pieces tactility and earthy colour scheme, often interrupted by small explosions of colour. Lamination is the key process Amber uses to gain seamless transitions between wood and acrylic. It was this process and its material outcome that inspired her whole collection. Newer pieces are inspired by pebbles, both their shapes and her inadvertent attraction to hold them.

Sustainably made

All the wood and acrylic used in Amber’s work is reclaimed, redesigned and repurposed, from old furniture, floorboards and offcuts. The act of taking something considered scrap and making something new, beautiful and cherished by its owner is a very rewarding process. Not only is this transformation from waste to wearable art resourceful it’s also a mindset that is much needed in today’s throw away society.

Forever chasing escapism and pursuing all that is joyful, I create artwork that encourages you to drift off and tempts you into recreational distraction

Amy Lee

Amy Lee Creative

About

“I am a Nottingham-based artist working predominantly in paper cutting, printmaking, sculpture and installation. Forever chasing escapism and pursuing all that is joyful, I create artwork that encourages you to drift off and tempts you into recreational distraction. My work focuses on colour, form and light and heavily features symbolism that is inspired by magic and ancient rituals, sound therapy and music, the sun, the moon and the cosmos. I make beautiful, bold work. Prints (including screen prints, risograph, holographic), hand-cut paper illustrations, acrylic hanging mobiles, suncatcher window decals, greetings cards and much more. My work has been described as ‘psychedelia meets minimalism’ and that it is ‘like seeing music and vibrations’, which I love!

Sustainably made

“Before making a new product, I do a lot of research into every aspect of how it will be made. I check paper types, print quality, and consider where materials will be coming from. I strive to make beautiful quality pieces that will be kept forever, even my greetings cards I see as ‘mini prints’ and ensure that they are printed in a way that means they will last. A lot of my work is paper-based, and where possible I use recycled materials, and environmentally friendly, non-toxic print methods. Risograph printing is extremely sustainable from the soya-based inks to the very small amounts of energy and water used by the machines. I work with small, independent owned-businesses. I build relationships with the people behind them and continue to support them over the bigger, and often cheaper, online competition. When sharing new work I will always share who I have worked with, and champion and recommend them to the other creatives I meet.

About

Fraser Searle- “Throughout my life I’ve found a need to conform to normality in order to progress as a young adult in life, be that through school, university or stepping out into the world of work. But I don’t want to be normal. Some of my fondest experiences in my life have been as a result of pursuing the abnormal. And I want other people to feel like they can pursue their abnormal too.

Sustainably made

Laura Wildish

Laura Wildish

About

Hello my name is Laurawildish and I’m the founder and designer of the luxury laurawildish label. I believe that luxury and colour is for everyone and that colour can lift your mood and confidence, whatever your age. As we get older, have children, get married, get divorced, and everything that life throws at us , the colour we wear can start to fade and we lose our identities. My world changed when I lost my mum suddenly 3 years ago, and this was a pivotal moment for me personally and professionally. I realised that life is too short. It’s about what stand you want to take. What mark you want to make in the world. Wear all the colour, sequins and tassels. Why fit in when you can stand out. Unleash your wildish side.

Sustainably made

My clothing line is made from 100% organic cotton and is made in very small batches off main production lines and on the sample rooms to ensure quality and attention to detail. Every single embellishment on all of my garments are made from the highest quality glass beading and embroidery techniques and have been hand applied by master embroiderers in India. My jewellery components are created in small batches and hand finished my myself here in the UK to ensure that each piece is checked personally by myself.

Remade by Caro

About

One off and limited runs of up-cycled clothes and accessories. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Remake. Caro Marshall makes and remakes clothes and accessories from pre-loved and vintage materials, sourced from charity and vintage shops, jumble sales, family, and friends. As a result, most of these items are one-offs or limited in number. Her work includes machine and hand stitching, applique, and free motion embroidery. The up-cycled denim jackets can be personalised or you can request something similar in a different size – of course, it won’t be identical but that’s the joy of up-cycled clothes. Caro enjoys working with customers to give them something they really want, rather than having to settle for what’s available. Jackets for children are great fun to decorate and personalise – bespoke jackets are available on request, or she can add a name or an initial to many of the jackets available in her shop.

Sustainably made

Every item Caro produces is partly or wholly made from pre-loved materials; most of these are obtained from charity shops so that part of her outgoings go to a good cause. Where she includes new materials, for example lining a bag or decorating a jacket, most of these are remnants, roll ends or scraps bought from local businesses. When making the products, Caro does her best to minimise waste and use small scraps for applique.

Cutting Floor Cushions

About

Cutting Floor Cushions make eco-friendly cushion inners, filled with pre-consumer fabric offcuts and fibres discarded by fashion and interiors manufacturers. They also make cushion covers from remnant and deadstock fabrics, or sustainably sourced and certified fabrics! Jacqui-“This all came about whilst teaching myself to sew to pass the time during lockdown, and wondering if there was something useful that could be done with the offcuts of my own little projects, rather than throwing them in the bin. I started thinking about how this must be a much wider problem during the production of clothes, textiles etc. and started looking into it. This line of interest led me down the path towards Cutting Floor Cushions!”

Sustainably made

Cutting Floor Cushions incorporates sustainability from start to finish – from the way they source and cut their fabrics, to how they package and post them out. Jacqui – ” I try to have as little impact on the planet as possible. My core aim is to be zero-waste. I use my own offcuts in other products like draught excluders, and make sure I cut fabrics using zero-waste design, which leads them to be non-standard sizes at times, but that’s the benefit of making my own inners as it doesn’t matter!”
