Notes:
Please feel free to reach out regarding custom orders, or if a particular item appears out of stock. While certain pieces are limited editions and may not be recreated, I am happy to provide updates on restocking timelines or alternative options.
If an item is being purchased as a gift, please drop a me message during checkout with the wording you'd like to use for a gift note. This ensures the recipient knows exactly who sent the surprise!
Shipping Times:
I will ship out your order within 3 working days of receiving.
While I guarantee that your order will be shipped on time, I am not responsible for delivery delays caused by the courier service, customs clearance, or peak holiday seasons. Once the package is in the hands of the postal carrier, the delivery timeline is outside of my control. Please note: Sellers are not responsible for postal delays, transit issues, or customs holds.
UK Postage:
Items will be sent by Royal Mail 1st Class with tracking. The delivery is usually 1-3 business days, but can be longer. Although including tracking increases the postage cost, it ensures that your items are fully traceable during transit.
International Postage (excluding U.S):
All international orders will be sent via Royal Mail International 1st Class Tracked. Although the tracking increases the postage cost, it ensures that your items are fully traceable during transit. This delivery method is usually 3-7 business days, but can be longer.
International Postage United States Only:
Due to the tariffs for importing into the United States, items will be sent Royal Mail 1st Class Tracked, with delivery duty paid (DDP). The delivery is usually 3-7 business days, but can be longer. DDP requires a tracked postal service, and the cost of the DDP is determined by the value and weight of a package. Unfortunately this means it can be quite a high postage price point. I am hopeful this price will go down in the future if and when the tariff situation changes for importing goods into the United States.
EU Shipping:
As a UK-based small business, I am happy to ship nationwide and to non-EU international countries. However, I can no longer support delivery to EU countries. This is due to complex EU trade policies, specifically the General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR), along with strict customs requirements and international postal changes. Unfortunately, the administration required to meet these legal frameworks is unsustainable for my shop. I sincerely apologise to my EU customers for the inconvenience
Customs & Import Fees:
Please be aware that orders outside of the U.K. may be subject to custom or duty fees, or an import fee/tax. The buyer is responsible for payments of these fees.
Packaging:
I do not offer a formal gift wrapping service, but all items are carefully and securely packaged to ensure they arrive safely. I am happy to include a printed gift note with your order free of charge! Please send me a direct message with your custom note immediately after placing your order, and I will gladly include it in the box.
Eco Packaging:
Glassine bags, cardboard and 'honeycomb' packing paper used in the packaging are recyclable. Please remove any shipping stickers before placing them in your recycling. Please do check your curb side recycling capabilities.
Please do get in touch if anything needs to be looked into or if there are any questions about an order.

Welcome to my creative studio! I handcraft statement jewellery, unique kilt pin brooches, and vibrant stickers inspired by tabletop & video RPG gaming, books, pop culture, and quirky foods.
My creative business actually started as a bit of an extreme hobby! I simply wanted to make some custom stickers for my travel journal and scrapbook, so I bought myself a cutting machine just for a few personal projects. I absolutely loved the freedom of digital illustration, knowing that anything I could imagine and draw on my screen could be brought to life as a physical sticker.
Encouraged by a close friend who thought others might enjoy my designs, I set up an online shop using an old Canon printer and my trusty Cricut cutting machine (who I lovingly named Kevin). Since then, things have truly spiralled!
I create all my pieces from my dedicated home studio space in the UK. I’m now equipped with a high quality printer using long-lasting inks and an ultra reliable new cutting machine named Bertha (Kevin has been safely adopted by someone making felt patterns!).
While I work, I am always watched over by the memory of my beloved cat, Cringer. She remains the ultimate quiet supervisor and eternal muse of my creative space. Honestly, it is probably for the best that she only supervises from afar now, as she had an obsession with crunchy things and definitely would have tried to eat all my jewellery beads!
After mastering stickers, I wanted to create earrings for myself, which led me to discover printable shrink plastic and UV resin. This process completely reignited my childhood love for jewellery making. As a teenager, I used to sit with my mum at local craft fairs, helping her sell her knitted jumpers while showcasing a few sets of my own polymer clay earrings. That wonderful time with my mum gave me the confidence to share my new shrink plastic designs online. I was so incredibly chuffed when I sold my very first pair, and honestly, I feel that exact same joy with every single sale that comes through.
My Handmade Process:
Every piece of jewellery and stationery begins its life on my digital canvas. I draw every single design myself from scratch, making sure each item is completely unique to my shop. For my food series, I love adding cute, whimsical faces to the illustrations. It brings the snacks to life, giving them a cheerful little personality and an extra dose of quirky character!
Once the digital artwork is finished for the jewellery pieces, it is printed onto premium, slightly frosted shrink plastic. I then hand paint custom glitter mixes, ranging from shimmering holographic golds to vibrant snack colours, directly onto the front. To ensure they are long-lasting and durable, I seal each charm under a thick layer of high quality glossy UV resin. Because hardened shrink plastic is naturally lightweight, even my largest statement dangle earrings and kilt pin brooches can be worn comfortably all day long, finished with high quality findings like 18K gold-plated brass or stainless steel.
Designing and creating for this store brings me immense joy, and I love learning new crafts along the way. Thank you so much for supporting independent British makers and being a part of my creative journey! It is wonderful to have you here.
