Materials

At Wacky Wanita's, we want to ensure that you are receiving the best possible products--and that starts for us by using the best possible materials.

As we continue to add to our inventory, we want to keep you updated on the materials we use to keep your purchases beautiful, durable, and guilt-free. What does this mean for us?

Beautiful: We offer a wacky perspective, but the designs we use are classic. In order to be sure the products we offer stay that way, their beauty needs to withstand the tests of time.

The Wacky Wanita Fortune Cookie Card, for instance, available in three colors, is the classic fortune cookie design you once used yourself in your high school classrooms. But this fortune cookie is made with eight (sometimes nine!) different heavy-pound, acid free papers, and decorated not in gel-pen or magic marker, but a glistening gold embossed design. There are many ways to make a paper fortune cookie--but we make it beautiful.

Durable: When you buy something beautiful, when you invest your money and your image into that item, you want it to last. So do we. That desire factors into the quality and the durability of the things we create.

An excellent example of this are Wacky Wanita artist Deborah's button earrings. Once she had mastered the craft of making dangling button earrings, she took them the extra mile and started making them them with sterling silver hooks. While regular metal hooks are handy, and sometimes cheaper to buy in bulk, sterling silver hooks are easy to clean and stay shiny far longer than any cheap crafting hooks, making the earrings you buy last longer and look better. And that makes you look better!

Guilt-free: If you didn't already read the post about Wanita's discovery on what goes into wool felt, you can read it here. To sum it up, in her search for the best materials to make her felt flowers, available in pins and as adornments on hats, she found a European manufacturer that could provide Wacky Wanita's YOUnique Boutique with slave-free fabric that is flame-retardant and safe for babies. At Wacky Wanita's, we want to support movements that support people--fairly. When we find ways to do just that, we take advantage of it, and still remain cost-effective for you. That means your shopping experience can be guilt-free all around.

If you ever have any questions about the materials we use, you can visit our Contact page and leave your question. We would love to hear from you--and if you have an idea for how to make our products better for you, we'd love to hear that, too! We are here for you. We want your experience to be the best it can be.
