A very happy birthday to Champion of the Earth Sir David Attenborough!
Thank you for your tireless commitment to safeguarding our planet.
Your efforts #ForNature are an inspiration to us all.
"Stronger" doesn't mean longer-lasting.
Pine needle baskets strengthen with age as natural resins harden, while synthetics degrade with UV exposure.
Ours last generations, not seasons. That's the difference between true craft and planned obsolescence.

The data is right there in Target's own sustainability report. When corporations tell you about their "sustainability goals," always look at their actual numbers, not their marketing promises.

Target's "sustainability" in numbers:
Goal: -20% virgin plastic by 2025
Reality: +82% increase since 2020 (38,600 → 70,381 metric tonnes)
This is corporate greenwashing: Set goals, do the opposite.

B Corp is continuously criticized for its 'pay to play' model and lax practices.
Join us in rejecting the false economy of disposable decor.
Choose pieces with soul, story, and genuine sustainability.
No bullshit. Just better choices. [7/7]
We're building the alternative—a marketplace where quality replaces quantity, where artisans matter more than algorithms, and where honesty trumps comfortable marketing lies. [6/7]
We refuse to compromise on truth.
We refuse to pretend that minor improvements to a broken system count as progress. [5/7]
Every mass-produced "sustainable" collection from Target, Amazon, or IKEA is built on a foundation of lies.
Their scale and profit margins are fundamentally incompatible with actual sustainability. [4/7]
It's about buying fewer, better things that:
- Support skilled artisans earning fair wages
- Use traditional techniques refined over generations
- Create products designed to last decades, not seasons
- Employ materials that regenerate rather than deplete
[3/7]
At Earthly Market, we're not here to make you feel good about buying more stuff.
We're here to tell the uncomfortable truth: true sustainability isn't about buying "green" versions of everything. [2/7]
We're done with greenwashing.
Done with corporations slapping "eco-friendly" labels on the same exploitative, wasteful products.
Done with big box stores claiming sustainability while their unsold inventory rots in landfills. [1/7]
Big box stores won't tell you the truth: mass-produced decor pollutes water, creates synthetic waste, and leaves massive carbon footprints.
We believe beautiful homes shouldn't destroy our beautiful planet.
Join us in reimagining home goods with purpose.

This isn't just about beautiful objects. It's about rejecting a system designed for waste.
When a basket takes 3 days to create by hand vs 3 minutes on an assembly line, that's purpose over profit.
What legacy will your home leave?
