Besides using recycled media for the jewelry, I also use 100% recycled and recyclable shipping material. Seaside Silver Jewelry is synonymous with not only fine jewelry but also sustainability. I have looked the world over for the most sustainable shipping supplies and I've finally found the perfect combo. From the envelope to your gift box or bag; I even up-cycle my shredded scrap paper as padding! Just remove the label and everything can be recycled with mixed paper! Love your earth!
