product information

Partnering is important to us. With you & with our planet.
Recycling and using reclaimed and FSC materials is a start, but we know it's not enough. We want to restore integrity to the way we live and take responsibility for the environmental impact of our choices. Though we are not fully where we want to be in terms of our carbon footprint as a small business, we are taking steps every day, making choices that are sustainable for us and for generations to come.
reclaimed | upcycled wood
We work with local small businesses to source the reclaimed wood we use for all our wood pieces, including: storyblocks, story keepers, & card holders.
Rather than varnishes that emit toxic VOC-off gassing, we finish all our pieces with natural beeswax paste to condition the raw wood.
art prints
Our prints are high end digital reproductions of Brian's original watercolors & the bird & brush pieces we originally paint on wood. The papers we use are for fine art, which means: museum quality, 100% cotton fiber, acid-free, lignin-free, and optical brightener (OBA) free.
cards
Our 4x6 flat cards for the yearly bird & brush desk calendar come to us already printed on paper that has met FSC Standards. The paper is extra thick, sustainably sourced, elemental chlorine free (ECF), made from all recycled fibers, & 100% of the electricity used to manufacture them is matched with Green-e certified wind energy.
The tree free greeting cards are printed to order at our studio. You can feel good about sending these because they are 25% hemp, 75% post consumer, 100% sustainable.
packaging
Our packaging is planet friendly - sourced mainly from Ecoenclose, a company dedicated to offering high quality packaging options that are as sustainable as possible.
