What Matters to Us

  • Supporting YoungMinds UK

    At Cotton and Washi, we believe every child and young person deserves access to mental health support when they need it most. That's why we're proud to support YoungMinds UK, a charity working towards a future where no young person feels alone with their mental health.

    A portion of every purchase, along with funds raised through workshops and events, will go directly to YoungMinds UK throughout the year- no matter the amount. Together, we can help create brighter, more supported futures for young people.

  • Sustainability

    We’re committed to creating a better future by using less, wasting less, and caring more for the world around us. Every product we choose and design reflects this philosophy—from our Cotton Wraps that cut down on single-use paper, to our Washi Stationery made without felling a single tree. At the heart of it all is our focus on sustainability, so that each small choice adds up to a lasting difference.

    Our Promise 

  • About Us

    Cotton and Washi began as a little idea close to home. As a family, we wanted to find ways to live more sustainably, cut down on waste, and still celebrate life’s moments in a beautiful way. Inspired by our time in Tokyo and the Japanese tradition of reusing and repurposing, we decided to bring that same spirit into our everyday lives, and soon, into a business of our own.

    What started as a passion for simple, meaningful swaps has grown into a small business I now run here in the UK, with my husband lending a hand from time to time. Each product is thoughtfully designed with the hope that it brings joy to your everyday rituals while being kinder to the planet.

    At the heart of Cotton and Washi is a belief that even small changes matter. With every wrap, every workshop, and every community fundraiser, we’re working towards a future with less waste and more connection.

    With love, Saya.
