Fairtrade Forever

Daisy Dress
Fairtrade Fortnight has been and gone, but here at Sprogs it is Fairtrade all year round. We continue to look for lovely clothes, toys and gifts that are all ethically made with as little damage to the planet as possible. We now have good links with suppliers who import goods from India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and South Africa, all of whom have actually been out to these countries to check on the working conditions and pay that the makers receive. The Bishopston Daisy dress pictured above is a great example of Fairtrade clothing.
What is more heartwarming than to see your child or grandchild wearing a beautifully made item of clothing or playing with a hand made toy and knowing that a less fortunate child is going to benefit.

We also love to find things made in this country and are delighted with the new Buttonbag craft kits that are in now. The Lucky Black Cat is sure to be a favourite and the Knitting Kit continues to be a great success – we just love the retro look to the Spotty suitcase that the knitting kit is presented in.

Ooh so many new ideas for presents – the hard bit is choosing between them all!
