📖

Encourage Reading

Every bookmark, Kindle case and glasses case we make is designed to bring people closer to the stories they love. Reading changes lives — we want to be part of that.

Celebrate Culture

Our fabrics come from donated clothing representing cultures from all over the world. Each piece carries the patterns, colours and heritage of the community it came from.

Reduce Waste

The fashion industry sends millions of tonnes of clothing to landfill every year. We give donated garments a second life as something beautiful and useful.

Born in Croydon.
Inspired by the world.

We're a Young Enterprise company from one of London's most diverse boroughs. We take clothing donated from cultures all over the world and turn it into reading accessories — handmade, right here in Croydon.

Each piece is unique. Each one keeps fabric out of landfill. And each one carries a story before it carries yours.
