When was the last time you bought a sustainably-made accessory? Now’s your chance, before the sun is gone for the season: Kayu offers four models of handcrafted bamboo-framed, UV-blocking sunglasses. Each sale funds one sight-restoring surgery in the developing world.

With a name like Design Squish it has to be good! This blog is full of gems like the Lazy Susan tabletop rotating on skateboard wheels. Also: chandeliers made of re-used plastic spoons which look like kelp and scrub pads resembling sea anemones.

Suvi Ainoa is a lifestyle brand for big and little people’s fashion and daily life. It is a simple way to live, something that will bring joy to your life. Useful, minimal and still beautiful. (Identity, packaging and website by Madomat!)

Have you ever come across such a nice solution that you want to invent a problem for it? Have a look at Big Cartel and you will start concocting what to sell online. Once you’ve invented something, let us know and we’ll customise your shopfront!

Tobyboo is the essence of craft. Many works are personal commissions — from stitched soldiers to name art, like this “C is for Celia”. The founder is a graduate of Central St Martins and her sense of clever detail is a delight within the innocence of her creations. Available on Etsy and Not On The High Street.

Etsy is the perfect antidote to too much technology – it’s a sort of online craft fair without the bizarre musty smell. Where else can you find a handmade iPhone cover made of felt, each icon recreated with a few perfectly placed stitches? Check out Tobyboo, Stefanie Xu and Little Cotton Rabbits.
