heard of blue caravan?

If you haven't already heard about blue caravan ..... you will definitely have to check if out! Blue Caravan is an ethically responsible site that sells products made both locally and overseas. They believe " ... that objects ‘warmed’ by designers, artists and artisans have a quality like no other… and that ‘ethical’ is no longer a choice separated from style and design" - a philosophy that speaks to my heart - how about yours?

Blue Caravan is an Australian based site, so all prices are shown in AUD - yippee! I have a feeling we will all be seeing and hearing a lot more from the lovely people at Blue Caravan, as they spread the ethically responsible word throughout the world! Here are some of my favourite finds of the day:




My owls, along with my other designs, have now joined this fabulous site here. I am hoping to add more to the store tonight.


So, if you haven't already knocked on Blue Caravan's door may I suggest you do so - at the same time you can feel smug in the knowledge that you purchased something with some ethical cred. Let me know what you think. Michelle

  2. Thank you for including my tea towels in your little collection.
    Blue Caravan is growing every day - it's so wonderful to be part of something that is so warm and thoughtful and important, yet still showcase good design and style!
    Yah to see your little owls moving in (hopefully moving along to a new home soon.....).
