Why upcycled materials?
The U.S. alone sends about 21 billion pounds of textile waste to landfills every year.
The fashion industry produces 10% of all humanity's carbon emissions,
is the second-largest consumer of the world's water supply, and pollutes
the oceans with microplastics.
Why jeans?
2 billion pairs of jeans are made every year from cotton, a thirsty, chemical-reliant crop.
Every pair of jeans requires over 2.2 million tons of chemicals & almost 700 gallons of water.
Harmful synthetic dyes, labor-intensive washing/rinsing cycles and chemical finishing
processes exploit workers in 3rd world factories.
What is a Merkaba?
The star tetrahedron is a sacred geometry shape representing masculine & feminine energies.
Translated as "light body vessel" it's your t into consciousness in meditation.
What is sacred geometry?
Considered an ancient blueprint of all creation, “sacred geometry” refers to the natural patterning of form, as found in plants, mineral deposits, snowflakes, DNA, the stars and more. Think fractals, the Golden Ratio, Fibonacci series and the flower of life.
Sacred Geometry MERKABA shaped pillow for your meditation or cozy space. Featuring upcycled furry fabrics, flannel and/or fleece patterns from fabric scraps, denim and more! A great seat for a meditation or circle gathering.
