CRZyBest Values

Authenticity Creativity Happiness

Unique creations that make you happy!

Ensuring our world is a happy place is really important to me, so when making CRZyBest creations I always try my best to look after my customers and our planet, which is why I make every effort to source my energy, tools and materials from sustainable and ethical sources.

From me making, to you receiving your creation I am always working towards having a positive environmental impact. (Goal 13)

My Space

My CRZyBest Shedquarters: the creative space where things happen was built by Green Retreats, it is a certified ClimateCare Climate Aware Company that creates ethical and sustainable garden workshops (Goal 13)

Materials (Goal 12)

Metal clay is an eco friendly material being made of reclaimed metals and an organic binder that burns away during the firing process

Swarovski® are an environmentally friendly company that are committed to working towards all the United Nations Sustainable Development goals, unfortunately Swarovski stopped making their individual crystals in Spring 2021

Preciosa® whose crystals I have been using more of since 2021 fund many ethical and environmental initiatives on both regionally and nationally in the Czech Republic

Many of my tools and materials I source as locally and independently a s possible. My favourite shops are Cooksongold and The Bead Shop in Nottingham

Cooksongold have made a great commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainability, find out more about all their policies here, particularly their recycled silver and ethically sourced precious metals, including metal clay

Packaging (Goal 12)

My CRZyBest gift boxes are created by The Tiny Box company and are made from recycled materials with an eco friendly inner. Check out their eco tips here

My business cards and my postcards that you will find in your parcels and at events I attend, are made using unbleached, unlaminated recycled card, so if you wish, you can compost my business literature!

All the packaging that you receive in the post from me is either compostable, re-usable or recycled

I am a firm believer that a sprinkle of glitter brings a shower of happiness and the glitter that comes in your parcel is from Eco Glitter Fun a certified Bio Glitter® reseller

Ethics: Honesty & Transparency

With a strong belief that ethical marketing is the way forward, I am signed up to the Ethical Moves pledge a movement that believes the way we sell can change the world, with transparency and honesty
