🖼️ Eco Stickers🖼️
All WildnCrafty stickers are 100% recyclable and PVC free! PVC is Polyvinyl chloride, and it is the world's third-most widely produced synthetic polymer of plastic. About 40 million tons of PVC are produced each year. There are often layers of PVC put onto stickers to protect them from the elements, or make them shiny. No sticker lasts forever, so I find it more important to put out products that can be reused when their life is over, rather than create more plastic.
WildnCrafty Designs manufactures through Zap Creatives! for these products.
🌳 Responsibly Sourced Maple Wood Keychains 🌳
WildnCrafty woden keychains are sourced from fast-growing trees such as Maple, Cherry, and Walnut. These woods are removed at the rate of their growth, which means that the woodlands from which they originate, will retain their supply and characters indefinitely.

🧸 Organic Plushies🧸
All WildnCrafty plushies are organic and use cotton that is GOTS certified. GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard and the aim of GOTS is to define requirements to ensure organic status of textiles, from harvesting of the raw materials, through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing up to labeling in order to provide a credible assurance to the end consumer. There are no synthetic fillers or fabrics used in organic plushies, and the quality of certified materials make them hypoallergenic.
WildnCrafty Companions is partnered with South Carolina based Joyus Toyus.
🌱 Seed Paper Business Cards🌱
WildnCrafty business cards are printed on pressed seed paper. The seeds that I elect to use are North American noninvasive wildflowers including: Bird’s Eye, Clarkia, Black Eyed Susan, Sweet Alyssum, Catchfly and Snapdragon. To grow these seeds, you need to plant seed paper under 1/8" of soil. Water thoroughly, then place in a sunny corner and keep moist during germination. Whether you plant them or not, they are biodegradable. This gives me a guilt-free way to share my business cards!
Pressed seed paper business cards are mailed only within the US, I mail recycled paper business cards for international orders.
WildnCrafty business cards are printed through the Canadian company, Botanical Paperworks.
