I strive to use locally-sourced recycled or sustainable materials whenever possible.
For some trophies I recycle glass that was originally made in the UK for the glazing industry. I buy from a local glazing firm off-cuts that would otherwise go into landfill.
I also use a specialist coloured fusing glass. Off-cutsof this glass is used to create small details on trophies and the smallest pieces to make a range of jewellery .
The wooden bases of the trophies are made from locally-sourced Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) approved beech.
When possible I re-use delivery boxes and packaging from my local farm shop - so don't be surprised if your trophies arrive in a box with 'biscuits' printed on the side!
Tinklertastic is proud to sponsor of 'The Winchester Wacky Go-Kart Races' for 3rd year running.
This local event raises money for "A Better Life" charity that helps homeless children in Mongolia.
In addition to making the medals, I also provide the graphic design and marketing support for the charity.
