Sustainability

We aren't perfect but we are always improving ourselves. If there is anything you can see us doing better please don't hesitate to contact us. We are forever evolving and the minds and thoughts of our customers matter.

There is no denying that the world we live in is sacred, magic and one of a kind but for far to long we have abandoned it. As a designer, mum and lover of nature I want to do better and be better. 

I want our children to grow up seeing what the world has to offer and to teach them what they can offer the world. The future is in our children, lets tread a little lighter and bring the beautiful back into our world by ensuring we play our roll in keeping this place of ours as pure and as untouched as possible.

We think of our Milky Designs pieces as; versatile, sentimental pieces all made with love & intention. Please pass your pieces on, reuse and make conscious decisions when purchasing.
