So excited for this! 🤩

We did a thing. A huge, scary, incredibly exciting thing! We just signed the lease on our new home right in the heart of the city centre! 🥳

What is this place?

Think of it as a creative headquarters, a beautiful collision of local talent, and a place where you can find unique items that definitely didn’t come from a factory miles away.

We’re building a vibrant space dedicated to celebrating and selling the incredible work of local indie makers, artists, and creators. We’re stripping out the boring and building up a community where handmade magic happens! ✨

Want to be part of the magic?

This is our official call to all the incredible talent in our area! If you craft, paint, weave, stitch, print, or design amazing things, we want to hear from you 🤩 We’re looking for founding makers to fill our shelves and join our community.

👉 Local Makers: Applications are NOW OPEN! Head to the 🔗 LINK IN BIO to find the maker application form and all the details.

Action packed November 🚨

I still cannot believe it’s been 10 ‼️years since my first ever sale/market 🙈 I’m too busy for this now but after the Christmas season I want to properly reflect on this past decade and write a long ass post about it 😂

For now, I’m running on adrenaline and coffee, being behind with pretty much all of my tasks but still aspiring to create new things to present to my lovely, amazing, wonderful customers visiting Pontcanna markets on 6th + 20th and of course 13/14th December 🤩Hope to see you there! 🥰

Happy 1st of December 🙌 we’re officially allowed to get festive 🎄🍊💃🏻🥂

Typical September: a month of change and transition. Haven’t got any pictures to reflect the crazy amount of admin work in the past few weeks (as well as procrastination)😅
Loved a spontaneous trip to North Wales ☺️

June! 🌺📷

The month of two amazing Cardiff festivals: and 🔥 enjoyed trading at both very much 🥰 sooo inspired to create more designs now, all thanks to fantastic feedback I got from the loveliest customers ❤️
+ making/prepping and some more travelling between the fests ☺️
oh, and spent the final say of the month making papier-mâché clouds for our next Pop Up shop in Cowbridge 🌧️ (next round is in two days, pop in to say hi 👋)

Today is my last day at 😪
It’s been an absolute pleasure working with you all this time (since the opening of the very first Cardiff Creative shop at Capitol centre!)
So many happy memories ☺️❤️

In just two weeks time! 📣
Myself and the wonderful are going to open a pop up shop in Cowbridge 🤩
Only for 4 days, Thursday 1st to Sunday 4th of May. This will be our first of 5 rounds and I am sooo excited! ☺️
I’m also planning to use this as an occasion to clear out my studio so will be taking all my seconds and test pieces, old prints, wall hangins and decorations that will be available at significantly reduced prices 😀
Come see us 🥰
