If It’s Hip It’s Here


Years ago we introduced you to Wedgies wooden doorstops hand-painted by men and women in Sri Lanka’s rural communities to empower them as part of an ethical incentive plan. Now they’ve been updated to include many more of your favorite current musicians, artists, fashion designers and more.

Pop Culture Wedgie Doorstops

Unpainted doorstops are delivered directly to employees’ houses, along with paints, brushes and tools. Once painted and completed, the Wedgies are paid for on collection. This allows people in rural communities the convenience of earning an income whilst going about their daily routines.

COMPOSITION & SIZING
Each Wedgie is hand-painted and handcrafted out of quality sustainable Alstonia wood. All wood used is accredited and certified by the Department Of Forest Conservation, Sri Lanka.

The paint used is non toxic, so child and pet friendly. It has a durable matte finish and is incredibly scratch resistant – these Wedgies are made to last.
