Culture Label ❥

hey dolls! :) how are we doing? I thought I'd introduce you to this lovely little site, Culture Label. If you've already come across this little treasure then fab stuff but if you haven't then read on! It's a great site that offers a range of wonderfully unique and stylish products, along with an array of simply fabulous, affordable art.

Their selection derives from over 200 galleries, artists, independent stores and museums from around the world, including Maiden, Nonesuchthings, The British Museum, Carry Me Home, Hunter Gatherer and many more!

The best bit? You pay the exact same price as you would directly from the individual sites- the only difference is that you can buy from all 200 shops in just one basket, brilliant! You can also shop confident in the knowledge that every single sale on Culture Label goes towards supporting some of the greatest arts and heritage organisations of all sizes and in all kinds of places, funding an amazing range of truly innovative work.

A lot of thought is put into picking and choosing the products that appear on the Culture Label website, ensuring a mix of integrity, authenticity, design quality and uniqueness. It is definitely a site worth checking out for some extra special gift ideas!

Here's a little selection of some of my favourite products- mainly from the lower price range. Enjoy!
