Every Purchase Makes a Difference: ArtyPax Partners with Atlas Project UK for Habitat Restoration and Wildlife Conservation

Updated: Jul 21

At ArtyPax, I believe that creativity and conservation go hand in hand. That’s why I’m incredibly proud to announce a new partnership with Atlas Project UK. This collaboration means every purchase you make from my nature-inspired, paint-your-own ceramics range now directly supports UK habitat restoration and native wildlife conservation.


Whether you’re picking up a paint-your-own puffin kit, a ceramic fox, or a woodland-themed pottery set, you’re not just fuelling your creativity—you’re also helping to protect and restore vital British ecosystems. Go you!

Where Your Money Goes: Supporting Conservation in East Ayrshire


Thanks to your support, we’ve already made a real impact. The first round of funding raised through ArtyPax purchases has been invested in conservation work at Montgreenan, located in the East Ayrshire Lowlands of Scotland.


Impact of Your Contributions


Here’s a closer look at the important work your purchases have helped fund:

  • Native Wildflowers: These plants are vital for supporting pollinators like bees, butterflies, and other insects. By planting these species, we’re helping to rebuild the natural food chain and support biodiversity across the area.


  • Restoration of Peatlands: Peatlands are one of the UK’s most important carbon stores. When they are damaged, they release carbon into the atmosphere—but when restored, they lock that carbon back into the ground. This not only helps combat climate change but also improves water quality and creates safe breeding grounds for rare birds and amphibians.


  • Enhancement of Wetlands: Wetlands are essential for supporting a diverse range of wildlife, including otters, wading birds, frogs, and newts. The regeneration of wetland areas at Montgreenan means safer, thriving habitats for our native and endangered species.


Why This Matters

The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. Over 15% of our species are at risk of extinction, and habitats are vanishing due to development, pollution, and climate change. This makes conservation work incredibly important.


By supporting conservation through your purchases, you help fund projects that protect endangered species and tackle the root causes of climate change—like habitat loss and carbon release from degraded land.


This isn’t just about planting flowers—it’s about building a healthier, wilder future.


Painting with Purpose


At ArtyPax, I’ve always been inspired by nature. The designs—whether it's a barn owl, a hedgehog, a sea turtle, or a wild mushroom—reflect my love for the natural world. Now, we're all giving back to the very wildlife that inspires the products you love.


Every time you buy a paint-your-own ceramic kit, you’re also helping fund real-world restoration and conservation work across the UK. It’s creativity with purpose. How awesome are you?


Connecting Art with Nature


When you choose to create, you’re not only engaging your artistic side, but you’re also making a contribution to environmental preservation. This connection between art and nature is at the heart of our mission at ArtyPax. Buying these kits means you're part of something much bigger—a movement toward sustainability and conservation.


What’s Next?


This is just the beginning. You, along with ArtyPax’s partnership with Atlas Project UK, will continue to fund new restoration projects throughout the UK—from ancient woodlands to wildflower meadows and more. I’ll be sharing updates regularly so you can see exactly how your purchase is making a difference and the incredible impact you're having.


Future Projects and Goals


As we look ahead, there are many exciting initiatives coming up. We aim to expand our projects to include more diverse habitats and increase our support for endangered species. Your ongoing support will be crucial in making these plans a reality.
