About Rosa:
Rosa Harradine makes brushes and brooms using natural materials and aims to make pieces that are beautiful as well as useful. At the end of their natural lives, the brushes are completely compostable. All waste trimmings from the making process are added to her compost heap.
Rosa works from her garden workshop in Carmarthen and harvests wood for her broom handles from her own small patch of woodland. Her long-term goal is to grow her own fibre for making full-size brooms, as well as plants for making natural dyes. She strives to leave a small impact on the earth and this would be the ultimate in her quest for sustainability.
Rosa was chosen as a TOAST New Maker 2022 by the fashion and homewares brand who selected five makers demonstrating excellence in skill, originality and craftsmanship.
