The artistic eye of the founder is evident in the selection of products available. Each item for sale has a unique story that has touched both the founder's and customers' hearts. Recycled, upcycled, sustainable, and fair trade values are key criteria for the products on offer. Whether it's stunning clothing made from organic or recycled materials, or housewares that infuse homes with love, Wild Abandon ensures that every product is both beautiful and useful.
The store also has a deep appreciation for all things woolly and natural. The founder personally hand-dyes and spins her own yarn, which is available for purchase. However, recognising the demand, Wild Abandon stocks a range of local and South American yarns, helping artisans around the world maintain better standards of living. The colours of the yarns are described as mind-blowing.
