Sometimes one of the most earth-friendly things you can do is shop locally and/or small scale handmade. We all know Etsy, which is responsible for many hours of wistful browsing. There are some extraordinarily talented artisans and craftspeople out there, and many of them can be found on Etsy. Etsy is also a great source of all things vintage and pretty, which is usually what I spend most of my time scoping. Like this mustard yellow metal tote that I’m coveting today.
If you are in or around Ottawa tomorrow, then you should also check out the indie Wed By Hand show. Wed By Hand is hosted by Beyond Events at the Courtyard Marriott, and the tag line is ‘handmand, unique, small, sustainable. Which all sounds pretty good to me! The show is open 10am to 3pm tomorrow (Saturday, February 27th) and will hopefully be a great source of ideas and inspiration for engaged couples who want to incorporate handmade and unique items into their wedding.
Enjoy if you go, I’m hoping to pop by at some point too!
