What Is Seed Paper? And Why We Use It in Our Packaging
At PRWMade, we believe every part of a product should tell a story - even the packaging. That’s why many of our jewelry items are packaged in something special: seed paper.
It’s not just recyclable. It’s not just biodegradable. It grows wildflowers.
So, What Exactly Is Seed Paper?
Seed paper is a handmade, compostable paper embedded with real wildflower seeds. When planted in soil and watered regularly, it breaks down and sprouts into blooms - no waste, just beauty.
Think of it as packaging with a second life. Once you’re done unboxing, you can plant it and enjoy something new: a pot or patch of pollinator-friendly flowers.
Why We Chose It
- 🌱 It reduces waste | No more plastic clamshells or throwaway cards
- 🐝 It helps pollinators | The seeds grow into wildflowers that bees and butterflies love
- 🌍 It aligns with our mission | Every piece should give something back
When you choose PRWMade, you're not just supporting a small handmade business - you're helping us plant trees, remove ocean plastic, and grow a little more green in the world.
How to Plant It
- Soak the paper in water for a few hours
- Place it in a pot or garden with soil
- Cover with a thin layer of soil
- Keep it moist and in sunlight
- Watch it bloom over the next few weeks 🌼
What kinds of flowers? Our seed paper typically includes a mix like Black-Eyed Susan, Bird’s Eye, Sweet Alyssum, and Snapdragons - all safe, non-invasive, and loved by pollinators.
Little Details, Big Impact
We could have chosen cheaper, mass-produced packaging. But that’s not our style. Every part of our product - from the wood to the wrap - is a reflection of the care we put into what we make.
We hope you’ll love the jewelry, and enjoy the flowers too 💚
