This Earth Day, we’re reflecting on the powerful role craft can play in protecting our planet. At Hands of Tym, every stitch is a statement – of creativity, of care, and of conscious living.
When I first started Hands of Tym, it was about sharing the magic of making. But over the years, I’ve seen how much deeper that magic goes. Crafting something by hand is a deliberate, thoughtful act – and it stands in beautiful contrast to the throwaway culture that dominates fast fashion and mass production.
🌿 Making that matters
Whether you’re joining one of our face-to-face leather craft courses or browsing our handmade bags and DIY kits, you’re supporting a more sustainable approach to fashion. We focus on quality over quantity, and believe that when you make it yourself – or buy something made to last – you value it more. That means less waste, and more joy.
🌳 One order = One tree
For every order over £50, we plant a mangrove tree in Madagascar through our partnership with Ecologi. These incredible trees not only fight climate change but also support biodiversity and local livelihoods. It’s a small step that we’re proud of – and with your support, it’s adding up.
♻️ Mindfully sourced, meaningfully made
From responsibly sourced leather to our growing range of vegan-friendly materials, we’re always looking for ways to make our products more planet-friendly. This year, we’re excited to expand our sustainable materials offering even further – stay tuned!
🖐️ Join us and create something lasting
If you’ve been thinking of trying something new, now’s the time! Our popular workshops are booking fast, and our kits are perfect for mindful making at home. When you create something yourself, you’re not just crafting a bag – you’re shaping a more sustainable future.
Happy Earth Day from all of us at Hands of Tym. Let’s keep crafting with care – for ourselves, our communities, and our planet. 🌍💚
