EcoDepot HQ

The loveliest thing about the Eco Depot studio is the cosy factor. I think some afternoons I'd like to move in permanently.  After a particularly taxing time with MYOB, the computer generally / writing / planning / organising (and yay!) packaging, I can look out the door and see green, which is pretty cool. I consider myself blessed. 

A little history of Eco Depot HQ....
The building itself was built by my beautiful husband from recycled materials whenever he could lay his hands on them. The french doors - came from a mates house, the yellow table - a neighbour moving away (the table used to be teachers issue at a local school), the ply panelling was a Ducati case (thanks to a friends husband working at a motorcycle showroom), cushion - one of many in Eco Depot store (not yet up!) made by a local lady from reclaimed fabrics, cushion insert, zipper & where possible thread! Basically, all the goodies have their own history and that's exactly what makes it such a great space to work in.

Makes it all the more important that everything that we source for Eco Depot lives up to this human feel. Knowing the stories makes it all the more fun.
