Some examples of these type of materials are:




                  Paint brushes: wooden or bamboo with

                  synthetic bristle fibres to avoid plastics.




                  Paint:  There  are  more  natural  sources  for  paint  including

                  homemade oil paint and earth paint.




                  Outdoors:  Many  sustainable  materials  can  be  found  in  your


                  own  locality  and  in  the  great  outdoors.  Natural  materials  that

                  can be broken down, but which can also inspire creativity.




                  Recycled  materials:  Anything  recycled  has  been  used  again

                  and  qualifies  as  being  more  sustainable.  Includes  steel,  wood,

                  yarn, and rubber.




                  Plant  based  Polyurethane:  Superior  to  other  forms  of

                  polyurethane and is biodegradable.




                  Sheep’s  Wool:  Particularly  ideal  for  rural  Ireland  and  other


                  countries where the raising of sheep is popular, this can work as

                  an  alternative  to  traditional  types  of  material.  Breathable  and

                  absorbs volatile organic compounds.
