"Hej" and welcome to MayAvril.dk
In my heart and design I'm Danish but I currently live in Switzerland and it was the Swiss lifestyle that inspired me to start MayAvril.dk and sell the products I make because I want to wear, carry or surround myself with them.
My first product was the MayAvril leather bracelet. My mom introduced me to working with leather a couple of years ago and what I love the most about working with this material apart from its scent is that every piece I make is unique. Actually I started selling these bracelets in Zurich, Switzerland before opening my shop on Etsy. The demand for my bracelets in the Zurich shop gave me the courage to put my other products on the market.
Why MayAvril.dk? Well, friends call me May and I'm born in April (Avril in French - Me and France that's another story) and then I'm Danish (dk), think I already mentioned that :-)
I design, make, assemble, package and ship all my products to individual customers and to stores, from my studio here in Zurich, Switzerland.
I have a background in communications but in this business I just make and sell what I love! and am thrilled when others love it too.
I act out of a passion to create and wish it will never end!
