Exhibitors each embrace several of the following ideals:
 Recycled
 Organic
 Natural
 Non-toxic
 Locally sourced
 Fairly traded.

Discover fashion, footwear, alternative technology, home accessories, natural beauty & body care, jewellery, childrens’ wear & goods, books, greetings cards and gifts.

Sweet dreams sweet cheeks eco artwork

Check these out Eco art work/collage pictures by Sweet dreams sweet cheeks. 

Her work is a direct meeting point between clean lines and chaos, subtley and kitsch surrealism. 

Artistic merit aside, her work is also made almost entirely from recycled materials.  From vintage cuttings to the glass and wood frames, Sarah stands as one of few environmentally ethical artists currently operating.

I am lucky enough to own one yipee! 

She also creates amazing cards in the same style and mix packs of blank inside cards coming soon...

 email her at her shop!

This piece has been made from wood cut from a wine box. Hand sanded and printed onto.  Its fastening method ties with the vintage ribbons  which have a  print on them . Available to buy in our online shop.

This wearable mixed media piece is made from wooden circles hand cut from a discarded chest of drawers abandoned in the street, and waste leather from a sofa manufacturer. The wood has been screen printed onto with a grey print design.  All hand made with reconstructed broken jewellery. A true unique piece.
