Absolutely love my propagator. Went together very quickly and easily and is even sturdier than it looks. So glad to replace my old pint glass on the window ledge, this is much prettier!

Really quick delivery

Really quick delivery, parcel came neatly packaged and recipient loved the gift! Also love the sustainable ethos behind the business, though would be keen to know what they’re doing to make their products more sustainable, not just the packaging.

Thanks for your review <3 To answer your question, we are trying to make our gift sets more sustainable by not only using packaging that is recycled, compostable, and/or made from renewable materials. We also ensure the individual products we include in our gift sets come from renewable materials, for example, for our Paint Your Partner gift set, we use wooden paint pallets, paint brushes and painting stands as opposed to plastic ones, and use water-based paints instead of acrylics. Another example is for our Smoothie Making Gift Set, we use upcycled coconut shells for the bowls and wood spoons. Whenever we design a new gift set we always prioritise finding products which come from renewable materials and partner with suppliers who use shipping methods with the lowest carbon footprint. Another thing we do outside of the product is for every order we donate to our partner GreenSpark where we recover plastic from the ocean and plant trees. Finally, for defective products, we have our version of "wonky vegetables" called "unloved gift sets", where products with slight defects are donated to charities to help raise money for a variety of different initiatives.

Thanks for asking this question, we will definitely look at how we can better communicate everything we do as we are super proud of it :)

Great gift ideas!

I received a portrait painting kit for my birthday. Had so much fun doing it that I bought 3 others as gifts! A really nice idea, reasonably priced (was on sale when I bought it) and lovely to know it’s eco friendly. Will definitely buy from you again. 😀

Bought for a valentines gift for my girlfriend. There was a slight issue with delivery however the product itself was so unique and of good quality the mixup didn’t matter. The assembly is missing instructions though.

Great customer service when I asked for help. Would buy from them again.
