Asbestos in the Sand and Other Reasons to Shop from Makers

In this episode of Make Good Things Happen, Angela and Renée dig into the coloured sand asbestos recall, unpack what it says about supply chains and consumer trust and remind us why buying from makers matters more than ever.

How can a tiny recall story reveal so much about our supply chains and safety standards?

From the coloured sand asbestos recall to the realities of supply-chain blind spots, our ladies discuss what recent events reveal about safety standards, consumer trust and why choosing makers over mass-produced goods matters more than ever. Along the way they touch on consumer rights, creative community events and the quiet power of buying thoughtfully.

What we cover in this episode:

• The coloured sand asbestos recall and what it reveals about supply chains and safety standards
• Why thoughtful buying matters and how to choose safer, maker-led alternatives
• A quick PSA on “no refund” signs and knowing your consumer rights
• Renée’s dispatch from the Sydney Ceramics Market and trend highlights
• A wrap of recent creative events, including Crafting Conversation and Made Right Here
