Shop the CollectionOld Made New
We take old and discarded items, saving them from a life in the landfill. All material products are made and remade from donations and lucky finds in thrift stores.
Supporting Women in Recovery
A portion of all profits go back into the community of Karis Support Society, a recovery home in Kelowna for women who are struggling with addiction and mental health issues. Their mandate is to empower and equip women with skills so they can transition back into community.
A Social Enterprise
We are a for-profit social enterprise that supports zero waste initiatives and women in recovery. Artsy Phartsy specializes in up-cycled goods.
