ALL styles. AND ALL SUSTAINABLE…
Specialising in repurposing textile waste, Bombus Artisanal creates a range of bags, scrunchies & other accessories from donated clothing and unused textiles that may have gone to landfill otherwise. Bombus also offers a repair service on a range of textiles products.
Sustainability is one of the core values woven into Bombus from zero waste design to free lifetime repairs on most products. Proudly a LGBTQ+ run business, 25% of sales from Bombus’ Pride collection is donated to Trans Aid Cymru. Amber, the one person team behind Bombus, is dedicated to creating a more sustainable, inclusive fashion industry – one upcycled product at a time.

Loxo Lampshades is a small business in Barry, South Wales, creating hand made lampshades in a range of designs and fabrics.
All fabric used is vintage, preloved or repurposed. Some fabric may have had a previous life as another item and some an off-cut from someone else’s project. The frames used are a mixture of new and repurposed. All lampshades meet the necessary industry standards with regards to components and fire safety. Loxo Lampshades has a commitment to limiting waste wherever possible; from fabric to tags.
A love of colour and texture, in addition to a limited supply of any particular fabric means that Loxo Lampshades are individually created. Most lampshades are one off designs unless a matching set is requested (always fabric dependant). Fabrics are combined to make double sided lampshades to enhance the bespoke nature of each shade. Double sided lampshades allow for a change when the lamp is switched on. This adds to the quirky nature of the designs.
Commissions are taken.

Hello, I’m Lavinia from the Stitchstable.
Sustainability is the heart of my business, influencing every step of my process. I start by raising my own alpacas and angora goats for their exquisite fibres , which is then transformed into unique, high quality, eco friendly clothing, accessories and gifts. My handcrafted products draw inspiration from my farm, showcasing a deep bond with land and its animals.
Embracing a whole life cycle approach I understand the importance that todays products can be repurposed into tomorrows materials.
If you would like to know more or view my products please contact me on any of the following.
