What you purchase and which types of businesses you support are important in actualizing the change you want to see in the world. At Janay A Handmade, those values carry through to our daily Work.
We are a small, home-based business, and as such, we tread lightly. No huge carbon footprint here. All of our products are sewn in-house or by work-from-home seamstresses. We strive to be Green in all ways possible: we use the most beautiful vintage and organic materials we can find. We breathe new life into used materials for the most creative recycling we can conjure, and we have an ongoing commitment to reusing our packaging and boxes.
Our Eco Materials:
We work hard to source quality materials. Look for the green leaf which denotes our eco-friendly friendly.
- For all products listed as Eco Friendly, we use a fabulous certified organic slub-weave 100% cotton that is grown and processed in the USA. (Look for the green leaf icon to indicate which products are eco-friendly.)
- All ring-bearer pillows are stuffed with factory refuse batting.
- Because of the distance from which bamboo materials are transported and the energy it requires to convert bamboo to fabric, we avoid it and prefer to use organic cottons whenever possible.
