Yahoo - I've eliminated plastic from shop packaging! The vast majority of orders are shipped in padded envelopes made from ♻️ paper, with paper labels stuck down w/ adhesive. No more plastic envelopes & loads of tape.
Some large orders may still see reused air-pillows as I work through the supply.

You can hear their sisterhood in their matching performances and their Clare origins in their tasty repertoire. With a very nice lift in their jigs and a definite modernity in their reels.
