Textiles We Love
As Valentine’s Day draws closer, it’s got us thinking about the textiles we love. As a record number of us this year plan to gift more sustainably, why not ditch the obvious choices of roses and chocolates and opt for something a little more interesting? We thought we’d put a quick Valentine’s Day sustainable gift guide together (of course, it’s textiles-related!) to give you a helping hand:
New York Confetti Weekend Bag This weekend bag is OEKO-TEX® certified, giving you peace of mind that it’s been tested for harmful chemicals. Why not pop a little note inside with the promise of a post-lockdown weekend away!
Christy Supreme Velour Robe Because being cosy is the new dressing up! We’ve all swapped nights out for nights in recently and hopping out of the bath and into this MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX® robe from Christy England would be a dream.
Calida Buttoned Pyjamas Nightwear is popular choice when it comes to Valentine’s gifting. This pyjama set from Calida isn’t just a pretty choice, it’s labelled MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX® so it’s a responsible choice too.
Dorma 400 Thread Count Bedding Nothing says ‘I love you’ like fresh bedlinen! Dorma ranges bear the MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX® label, so you can rest assured that they’re chemically safe, environmentally friendly and socially responsible.
Linen Plant Pot Cover For the plant lovers amongst us, this little linen plant pot cover is the perfect gift, the fabric is OEKO-TEX® certified too.
Look out for the OEKO-TEX® brand when shopping for loved ones. The STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® label certifies a textile as being tested for harmful chemicals, so you know it’s safe to use or wear for you and your family. The MADE IN GREEN by OEKO-TEX® label is a traceable product label for all kinds of textile and leather products and also guarantees that the textile or leather product has been manufactured using sustainable processes under socially responsible working conditions. You can use a unique product ID on the label to trace the countries and production facilities in which the labelled article was produced.
Happy Valentine’s Day from us at Shirley®, we all need a little more love this year, so spread it far and wide!
