Making it Personal
We are unique.
By that I don’t mean our company. I mean us
as individual people.
Even as tiny newborn babies, we are unique with our own
personalities and agendas.
I still can’t quite believe how polar opposites my two children are.
I still can’t quite believe how polar opposites my two children are.
I have a Wam Bam SamSam who climbs, runs, isn’t affected by
new people or places and generally never sits still and causes chaos, whilst
constantly saying “mummy cuddle plz”
Whereas my eldest is a babbling bossy boots, who reminds me
a lot of my nattering Grandma. She draws, colours, scribbles and never stops talking but put her in a public space and she becomes mute, sweet and angelic…. she
constantly tells me “I’m too busy Mummy!"
Every baby born has a personality. A “theme tune” so to speak.
Then we give them their very own personal name to define them a little more.
The newness of the name makes us smile, every time it is spoken. Then slowly, day-by-day
the name is comes familiar and fitting.
Every child is unique. So we embrace that by trying our
hardest to find things that are as different as every Mum and every baby.
Something you haven’t seen before on the high street. Something that is
totally unique and one of a kind. Something that will be treasured and kept
forever. Something that grows with age just like our little ones do.
Finding makers that understand and believe in the same ethos as us is hard. But we dig deep and wait till we have that sudden lovely rush of
excitement, or tremor of tears when seeing that perfect thing.
Our makers are just as unique and special as the babies they
make for.
Their signature invisible cashmere seaming.
Their wobbles of whimsical porcelain.
Their beauty of the hand drawn line.
A uniquely hand forged heritage piece of silver.
Wonderfully cheeky stitches to capture a softie's new
face.
The unique signature of letterpress print.
A sweetly hand stitched sari.
A perfectly printed fingerprint in a piece of silver.
A charming captured expression carved into wood.
These captured hand strokes, whether it be with knitting
needles, pencil, pen, potters wheel or hand stitched are what make them
unique. Keeping them precious and real.
Keeping them wholesome.
Wabi sabi.
Keeping them wholesome.

Make sure you see our Monday maker’s blogs throughout the
year, capturing the personalities of our makers and how they personalise what
they make. Making personal things to capture smiles & personalities.
