Willow Earth (offcut cotton wallets and cardholders)

Willow Earth in Sussex makes pretty wallets/cardholders made from the offcuts of their cotton canvas rucksacks. Choose from several earthy colours. Or plain cork.

Cork is stripped from tree bark, and no trees are chopped down to make it. It keeps forests alive, in a world of plastic wine corks in Spain and Portugal.

This is the new style of making things, to get away from fast fashion. And this brand also is on the more affordable line, so anyone can benefit from a nice zero waste gift of a pretty wallet or coin purse!

Whether you prefer simple cotton canvas to eco-friendly cork to luxury vegan leather, there is always a lovely wallet or cardholder or coin purse that’s kind to animals and good to the planet!

Donate unwanted wallets and purses to small charity shops (that don’t test on animals). For items that are worn out, ripped or stains, place in local textile banks (the materials are shredded to make insulation and other industrial goods).
