What a summer it’s been so far! ☀️✨

Christmas in July was, of course, a huge success! A massive thank you to everyone who took advantage of the offer, your support means so much! ❤️

I’ve also managed to secure some more dates for Paint & Sip nights over the next couple of months, with dates to be announced very soon! 🎨🍷

And then there’s the really exciting news… From December, Hippopottery will feature in Kirklees’ ‘Welcome to the World’ baby packs for a whole year! 🥹✨ I honestly can’t quite believe it!

Somehow, I’ve also managed to squeeze in a summer holiday with the family, so I’d definitely call that a win-win! ☀️✈️❤️

And now… the diary is officially OPEN!

Whether you’re looking for a beautiful keepsake or getting ahead with your Christmas presents, I’d love to create something special for you.

Here’s to the rest of the summer and a very exciting few months ahead! 🥂✨
