A happy bunch of creatives capturing your special moments
As a child before Christmas I could hardly sleep. But it wasn’t dreaming of the teddies and dolls that Father Christmas might leave that kept me awake…. Instead I was over-excited at the thought of the books Santa had found, packed with tantalising pictures of sheep I was going to knit, or the mats I was going to decorate with offcuts of material and wool.
It was almost as much of a thrill waiting for my Mum and Dad’s (hopefully delighted) reactions to the finished creations when I presented them with the finished gift. I *think* the reactions were genuine as my Mum, who is now in her 90s, still has some of them proudly displayed.
The obsession with crafting stood me in good stead at school where I embarked on a side hustle glass engraving, accompanying my Dad to Craft Fayres where each sale gave me that frisson of excitement.
To this day I am a little bit obsessed with creating something out of the ordinary to raise your gift-giving to the “Wow, I love it! Where did you find that?” level!
This is the core of who I am and what our little business is all about. I want to give you the joy of finding something unique to give to your loved ones which they will treasure for years to come as a lasting reminder of your love for them.

If you popped into our studio you would find a happy, if busy, little gang of us with the radio turned high as we bustled our way through the day's orders.
Each day brings something new and with so many gifts with different messages and personalisations to make we know each of these will be that extra special for the recipient.
Over in the corner there is the mug pressing station where grandpas and grandmas come to life on cups - wearing glasses with all manner of hair styles and the tricky decision of whether or not to add wrinkles!
Then there is the framing station where tin hearts are carefully placed into gorgeous white box frames to bring delight to an anniversary.
One or more of us will be working away on a computer; often researching a house history or putting the finishing touches to a graphic before it goes to print.
But at the heart of everything we do is the knowledge that each beautiful piece is sure to become a real talking point for you, friends and family.
