One Small Bottle. One Big Change
Fairy Floss🌿 One Small Bottle. One Big Change.
Last year, while visiting our Fairy Floss factory in Bali, something struck me deeply.
Last year, while visiting our Fairy Floss factory in Bali, something struck me deeply.
Even though we’ve long used recycled bags to pack our garments — doing our part to reduce waste — I couldn’t ignore the overwhelming presence of plastic water bottles. They were everywhere.
Small bottles, even Tiny bottles, — handed out as a gesture of kindness. In offices, in shops. And yes, even in our own factory. It’s so normal there, no one even questions it.
 I couldn’t unsee it.
And I decided to do something about it.
And I decided to do something about it.
I partnered with NeoFlam, a brand that makes beautiful, high-quality stainless steel bottles (as well as other amazing non-toxic cookware) , and brought enough for every single one of our factory workers. We translated the campaign into Indonesian, created explanatory signs for the factory, and gathered everyone for a sweet, heart-to-heart meeting.

I spoke in English, and our wonderful Dipa translated everything for the team.
We spoke about what really happens to plastic after one use.
We spoke about Bali’s plastic crisis — how Indonesia is now the second largest plastic polluter in the world.
We spoke about what we can do differently.

Now, each person in our factory has a reusable bottle. We’ve set up a refill station, and instead of offering guests a plastic bottle, we serve them a glass of water — simple, thoughtful, and waste-free.
It was a beautiful, emotional day. The team was so grateful, so open, there was a lot of discussion and laughter.Â
We may not be able to change everything overnight,
We may not be able to change everything overnight,
but we can start here.
With one factory. One bottle. And a clear intention to do better.

May this be a ripple that reaches beyond our walls and inspires more businesses in Bali — and around the world —
to refill, not pollute. 💧
