How I made the first Sacpot.

​

I discovered weather resistant polypropylene when I began my research for a new sculpting style. The first test sculpture using the new fabric was so lightweight I tried weighing it down using matching soil-filled sacks only to find the elastic surface could be easily modelled into any shape I wanted. These pots were taking advantage of all the fabric had to give and I was shaping my first Sacpots!

​

Plastics experts confirmed Sacpots' ethical application of synthetics and that they can be recycled and classed as vegan and farmers using similar stuff for hay bailing said they can't wear it out, so I feel confident Sacpots are long lasting and most importantly, look great.

​

Visitors to my Shambles market stall in York appreciated Sacpot’s average weight of 75 grams and receiving their online orders through the letterbox.
