✨ New Year, New Chapter: Reflecting on 2025 and What’s Next! ✨

Gosh, 2026 already? 🕰️ How did that happen?!

First and foremost, I owe you all a sincere apology for the long delay in updates. To say 2025 was a whirlwind would be an understatement! 🌪️ It was a year defined by immense change and a few "tough-but-necessary" hurdles that have led me to exactly where I need to be. 💖


🇮🇳 A Journey of Inspiration: From Trade Shows to Rajasthan

The middle of last year was a blur of energy! ⚡ After wrapping up a full schedule of summer exhibitions and trade shows, I knew I needed to reconnect with the heart of my business.

I took a much-needed trip to visit my beloved artisans and manufacturers in Rajasthan, India. ✈️ There is something deeply grounding about being back in the workshops, surrounded by the incredible craftsmanship that breathes life into every piece. 🎨

👶 Growing the Collection: Our Hand Crafted Alphabet Wall Hangings, ABC’s Portrait & Landscape models 3'x2'. 

The outstanding 3x2 Portrait Numbers 1-10 & our popular ABC Rug Versions for which we were awarded Etsy Best Seller Worldwide back in October 2025 & still hold it! 🤩 🙌

While in India, I ventured into an exciting new creative territory! I am so thrilled to have commissioned several new designs specifically for the little ones in our lives:

I feel incredibly blessed to have found such talented artisans who produce these pieces especially for me. Whether you are looking for the ultimate Baby Shower gift or the final touch for a nursery or playroom, these rugs bring a touch of handmade magic to a child's world. ✨

Our lovely Customer’s from UK, Canada, Usa. Australia, Dubai & all over the world have left us some amazing 5* Reviews for which we are so grateful.

🏠 Big Changes & New Spaces

Thanks to your incredible support, my online e-commerce presence grew at such a pace I wondered if I would get through all the orders myself! 🙏 Because of this, I made the decision to close my physical shop premises upon my return from India & relocate everything to Woodpeckers my family home built by my parents in 1975, A beautiful Showroom has been created & fully insured I accept customers by appointment to come & browse at leisure ☺️

The lead-up to Christmas was wonderfully chaotic & surpassed all my expectations Online, I was packing & posting daily & double dropping at our village post office!  🛍️


🎒 Looking Forward: January and Beyond!

And suddenly, here we are in mid-January! My next trip looms in just a few weeks’ time. 📅 This will be my eleventh time jetting off to see my Artisans & Manufacturers, and I am so looking forward to being back with my leather manufacturers whom are ‘Simply the Best’ I am honoured they supply me with such Quality pieces & bring my own designs to life for me 🙏

I have a very specific goal this time: The Large Laptop Tote! 💻 So many of you have asked for a bigger version of my Best Selling Laptop Tote signature bags, it has become apparent I need to create one for those of you with the larger laptops over 16” & with sections internally for keyboard, mouse, papers plus all the other bits and pieces a businesswoman needs to carry with her.  I can’t wait to dive into the design process with my leather Manufacturers to come up with exactly what my customers are asking for.

"I’m ready to start 2026 by listening to what you need and creating pieces that fit perfectly into your lives." 🌟 be it for work, rest, play or those precious little ones to learn from 🙌

Thank you for sticking by me through the transitions of 2025. I am so excited to take you along on this next journey! 🎒✈️
