Bespoke Wearable Art

Jo Male from Nu4U takes what is old, discarded and broken, and then recycles and transforms it into something totally new. From stunning, once off handmade bio resin bangles, earrings and marine-debris necklaces to colouring in kits, baskets, key rings, frames and artistic tutorials, the message of Repurpose, Reuse, Upcycle and Save resonates through everything on offer. 

Each eco-friendly Nu4U piece represents several hours of beach walks, cleaning and sorting through piles of marine debris, which then tells a story that you can wear with pride. Every little piece of plastic waste, fishhook, netting, rope and lure represents marine debris that is no longer causing havoc in our oceans and endangering our marine wildlife. Often, Jo combines this man made and synthetic marine debris with washed up shells, wild bird feathers, wild snake sheds, recycled handmade beads, gold leaf and eco-friendly dyes. To ensure each piece is durable as well as eco-friendly, Jo uses an Australian resin which is 100% bio based. Each piece is an artistic alternative to contemporary jewellery and home décor and is much friendlier on our environment.
