Personalised cufflinks make a great present for father or grandad

Personalised silhouette cufflinks perfect for that special person!

A pair of custom designed silhouette portrait cufflinks, created from your own photograph.

Each pair of heavy weight cufflinks can hold one miniature silhouette portrait, each potrait is printed using high quality resin coated inks at a super high resolution to capture the fine details. The tiny portraits are then sealed under a clear resin bubble to protect them and carefully set into each cufflink. Designed using a palette of contemporary and vintage inspired colours.

These silhouettes make a great gift for any father or grandad, and are the perfect gift for Fathers Day!

These cufflinks are designed using a photo of your child. You can have the same portrait in each cufflink, or you can add the option of a different portrait in each.

These cufflinks work best with very strong contrasts as the images are minature. You can choose a black or white silhouette, and a matching background colour from our swatches. We can also match these cufflinks to your wedding colours if required.

Once you’ve placed your order we will need you to send us the image you’d like us to use for your order.

For this type of silhouette a clear image from the side is required. Take the photo with a pale neutral background, at the height of the subjects eyes. Include the whole head and shoulders in the photo and a relaxed face looks most natural. For kids sometimes taking a picture as they watch TV results in a natural pose.

Eco Textiles

Buying eco textiles for your eco home not only says something about your green views, but can also help pressure the textile industry to be more environmentally friendly.

The eco textiles industry is the world’s number one industrial water polluter. It uses millions of gallons of water to dissolve chemicals, dyes and detergents, which are then poured into the local water system where they can damage plant life, wildlife and seep into the groundwater.

Consequently, textile manufacturers are now being pressured to adopt more environmentally friendly manufacturing practices, such as being more energy efficient and recycling water. A lot of this pressure is being applied by the clothing industry, because eco textiles are becoming more popular all the time, both for use in fashion and in eco homes.

The growing popularity of eco textiles in fashion

The fashion industry has a bad reputation for designing throw away clothes at the lowest cost to producers, whilst at a high cost to the environment. But now the trend towards sustainability is influencing the clothes people buy on the high street.

Now trendy labels, top designers and catwalk models all want to be associated with a more sustainable way of manufacturing textiles. This means a greater availability of eco textiles for your eco home.

Ethical fashion encompasses reducing child labour, improving wages for workers in third world countries and making textiles from sustainable materials.

Eco textiles are more sustainable

Synthetic textiles, such as polyester, acrylic and nylon, are all made from petroleum, which is very energy intensive and polluting to manufacture. However, there are greener materials available though for use in your eco house.

Eco textiles are made from natural materials. This includes animal wool and plant fibres, such as organic cotton, hemp, jute, bamboo or linen. Eco textiles can be harvested over and over again and are more energy efficient to produce than synthetics.

Cotton, for example, is the most widely grown textile material in the world, but is also the most chemically intensive to harvest. It’s estimated that cotton crops use a quarter of the world’s insecticides and 10% of its pesticides.

But organic cotton is far more environmentally friendly. The greener harvesting methods used to grow organic cotton means it’s free of toxic chemical fertilizer and pesticides.

So when buying textiles materials for your eco home, make sure they’re eco textiles. This will help keep pressure on the textile industry to be more environmentally friendly in how it operates.

Funeral directors the family you can turn to

Lodge Brothers was started in Feltham, Middlesex by James Lodge (1762-1836) who was a builder and carpenter and also became the Parish Clerk. James was born in Marnhull, Dorset and was one of seven children. His father died when he was four and his mother when he was thirteen so James and his sibling became orphans. Legend has it that he left Marnhull to escape the Press Gangs and was making his way to London when he happened on the village of Feltham and decided to settle there rather than continue to London.

Lodge brothers are the very best Funeral directors. The family you can turn to.
