Both strength and tenderness live within you.

A gentle reminder to embrace the uncertainty of opening your heart, trusting that softness creates space for deeper connection. Vulnerability is not weakness, but a pathway to authenticity.

May you be rooted in love, open to life’s flow, and anchored in your truth.

These coaster are the cutest way to personalize your space with functional, textile art. Both useful & beautiful. ⁠
⁠
Find complementary fabrics on each side. ⁠
Perfectly absorbent, like a little cloth to keep your table clean. ⁠
Totally washable. Throw them in the washer and dryer. ⁠
They get better & more absorbent with more use. ⁠

We make these by hand in our shop from leftover fabric scraps. So these are doubly recycled and super sustainable.⁠

We've been turning your garbage into gold since 2008. We use thrifted and dead stock textiles to make the best & most beautiful yoga & meditation props.

Textile waste is undeniably a worldwide concern, with the fashion industry contributing significantly to the problem. In Canada alone, approximately 37 kilograms (81 pounds) of textiles per person find their way into landfills each year, creating a staggering environmental footprint.

Instead of adding to the ever-growing textiles waste issue, we're helping to reduce it by sourcing materials that have previously been discarded.

We cut around stains or holes.
We add love heart patches to reinforce tears.
We design patterns to maximize fabric use.
We reuse most of our scraps for smaller products and projects.
We pre-wash all thrifted fabrics so they are easy to clean & last longer.

We're not perfect but we're doing out best to make a difference in the world.
Our process takes longer and requires more attention than other mass produced props.
Our selection is constantly changing.
We may not be able to match previous fabrics.
You may have a hard time choosing just one fabric you love.
We may miss an imperfection every once in a while.

But you can take comfort in knowing that all of our products are 100% guaranteed. If anything rips, breaks, tears or doesn't wear as well as it should - we'll always fix or replace it. Because that is what being a sustainable business is all about.

Thanks for being here. Thanks for making small choices for a more sustainable world. We appreciate you.

Some choice quotes from the incomparable that you may find helpful as you finish off your work week.

Here's hoping you walk into the weekend with the confidence and grace of Tracee Ellis Ross.

Rest is valuable only so far as it is a contrast. Pursued as an end, it becomes a most pitiable condition. ✌🏽 Taken from a quote by Benjamin Cardozo.

Almost anything can be destructive if you do it too much. Rest and Motion are the same. Too much rest or too much exercise can have negative impacts on your mind, body and overall health.

There is no set formula or ratio between rest and motion that works for everyone. Your best bet is to try to include a little rest and a little motion every day. Incorporate activities that you like or ones that bring you joy.

If you're not sure how you can easily incorporate rest and movement into each day, swipe to the next slide. You'll see a reference for simple, quick activities for rest and movement. Most don't require much time or money. And the benefits of each are listed there too.
