Honestly… where do I even start?

34,000 orders placed, 34,000 little pieces of Appleton Crafts making their way into your homes, nurseries, bedrooms, businesses and special occasions.

Behind every single order is a real person who chose to support my little business — and that means more to me than I could ever put into words.

What started as a dream has grown into something I’m incredibly proud of, and you are the reason it’s still here.

Every order, review, message, recommendation, share and repeat purchase helps keep the dream alive. ✨

So from the bottom of my heart…

THANK YOU.

A very relatable post. With Christmas season approaching, Mother Bear loves to help pack, make reindeer food and thread stars!

And then the perfect excuse for coffee and lunch as “payment!”

Okay… we’re going there…

I know. It’s not even September yet.

But there are some of you out there who are already organised for Christmas and, honestly… I envy you. Because where do you find the TIME?! 👀

And first up… the Elf is back! ✨

This year we’ve created a little Elf Arrival Duo — a personalised arrival card for your Elf to leave behind, alongside a matching message board for those all-important Elf antics.

🎄 Buy them separately
🎄 Or grab them together and save a few pennies

Because if we’re going to encourage you to be organised this early, the least we can do is make it a little easier. 😂❤️

There are some projects that come along that make you stop and think… wow, how did little old us end up being part of this?! 🥹

We were recently approached with the opportunity to work alongside the PR agency behind Asda’s Exceptional Pasta campaign — and we were absolutely thrilled to be involved.

As part of the campaign, PR boxes were sent out to journalists and influencers, showcasing the new Exceptional by Asda Pasta range… and tucked inside those boxes were our very own engraved wooden utensils, personalised with the Exceptional logo. 🤍

Seeing our work alongside a huge household name like Asda is a pretty special feeling.

A huge thank you to the team for trusting us to bring this part of the campaign to life

• Some moments deserve to be remembered forever•

From those very first nursery days, to starting big school, heading off to university, and every milestone in between, personalised gifts become keepsakes that families treasure for years.

Whether it’s a first day photo board, a little good luck token tucked into a school bag, or something special to mark the next chapter of independence, we’re proud to create gifts that celebrate life’s biggest moments.

Because childhood passes in the blink of an eye, but the memories don’t have to.

Which milestone are you celebrating this year?

• Your 5-a-day just got a little more exciting… •

Apparently, according to the news this morning, “picky bits” can count towards your 5-a-day!

Now, we’re assuming they mean the grapes, strawberries, cucumber and carrot sticks… but we’re choosing to believe there’s still hope for the sausage rolls, mini scotch eggs and pork pies. 😂

Until science says otherwise, we’ll keep living in blissful denial.

Who’s joining us for a picky bits night?



Available with or without additional “and the wine” text, or customise the board, for the perfect gift or addition for your nibbles!
