SUSTAINABILITY

We are proud to be an official stockist of Cornish Milk Paint which is a vegan, eco-friendly product with 100% recyclable packaging made from recycled materials. We hope to encourage and support our customers allowing them to upcycle their existing furniture with this paint instead of buying new. This aligns with our brand values to encourage sustainability and minimise our impact on the environment. All packaging we purchase to use at our shop is plastic free and we offer a returned packaging incentive for our instore customers in return for a discount voucher. Your online order will be sent in packaging reused from our stock deliveries.

At Hetty & Flo we are passionate about the environment and are always looking for ways to make our business more sustainable. We sell an eclectic mix of products, which includes a large collection of vintage pieces and pre-loved items. Lots of our new items are hand crafted by artisans from the local area. This includes cushions with fabric sourced from roll ends and gifts made from wood and slate. We also sell greeting cards and wrapping paper which are free from plastic wrap.

In the restoration of our 1840's premises we used traditional methods of construction using as much of the original materials as possible. We restored the original timber flooring and completed the shop front with traditional wood and hand-painted signage. You will find that our shop displays and furniture are wood, metal and glass wherever possible and the majority is pre-owned pieces, such as our apple crates and vintage tables.
