Beautifully recycled, brilliantly you

The Home of Rubbish Jewellery

I pick up litter wherever I go: rivers & canals, parks & woods, beaches, high streets & the odd mountain path. I cut it into tiny pieces, set it in eco resin & give it a new life as jewellery you’ll actually want to wear.

A little bit of rubbish. A lot of story.

Shop the ranges

Pick your metal

Every piece is from my premium range: 316L surgical-grade stainless steel, titanium, 100% recycled sterling silver or, for a bit of luxury, 14ct gold-filled wire.

316L stainless steel is where most people start. Titanium if nickel is a problem, recycled silver or gold filled when it's a present.

  • 316L Stainless Steel Studs with Eco Resin & Rubbish

    316L Stainless Steel

    The good all-rounder. Hard-wearing, easy to look after & happy being worn every day. It won't rust or go green, & it's a great starting point if you're not sure what to choose.

How I work

  • Plastic free packaging

    Paper, card and paper tape. All of it recyclable.

  • Kind to sensitive ears

    Titanium that's 100% nickel free, surgical-grade 316L, and recycled silver.

  • Handmade to order

    Posted within 3 to 5 working days.

  • Eco resin where it works

    The resin I set most pieces in is about 23% paper and cardboard by-product, which is as good as it currently gets. It isn't in everything: the small bezels, and the finish on the rest, need a UV resin, and there's no eco version of that yet. When there is, I'll switch.

A quick hello

I'm Kirsty, & I pick up other people's litter.

A partial knee replacement at 52 took me off my paddleboard, so in spring 2024 I discovered a new craft obsession to fill the time. Crafting took over. Now I collect litter wherever I go: rivers & canals, parks & woods, beaches, high streets, even mountain paths. I cut it small, set it in resin, & write down the postcode it came from, so I can tell you where your earrings have been. Two years on there are four collections: 316L surgical steel, nickel-free titanium, 100% recycled sterling silver & 14ct gold-filled wire.
