a couple gift ideas

It’s simply impossible to get chemical-free water from a plastic bottle. Even small amounts of bacteria at bottling can multiply to a much larger problem by the time the product gets to you. It’s unrealistic to think that water bottled in plastic containers, produced at a bottling factory, transported and stored at high temperatures for months at a time, can be purer than what a basic home water filtration system can deliver. And at least two out of every five bottles of water sold around the world are simply filtered tap water.

A water filtration system and the refillable tap waterTM bottle is a simple, clean solution. Small size $10, large $12. Find it here.

The print is about the very moment you realize what will happen next. It’s inspired by a walk through a wildlife park. It is a linocut on 185gsm acid-free, deckle edged watercolor paper, printed with water-based inks. Untitled by Antje Drescher. Cost $55 with 15% going to Doctors Without Borders. Find it here.
