WILD & WHIMSICAL

There’s something special about the small wonders in nature — the curve of a leaf, the pattern on a shell, or the way light falls through the trees. Our Wild & Whimsical edit celebrates those details with handmade pieces full of character, charm, and gentle storytelling.

Prints That Tell a Story

Illustrated prints bring the outdoors in — pressed flowers, delicate ferns, hand-drawn birds. These simple artworks can turn a corner of your home into a space for pause and reflection. Whether tucked into a frame or pinned to a noticeboard, they quietly celebrate the beauty of everyday nature

Earthy Homeware

From hand-thrown mugs to carved wooden bowls, earthy homeware adds warmth and texture to daily rituals. These are pieces that feel grounding — made to be used, held, and loved. They bring a quiet connection to the natural world, one slow sip or shared meal at a time.

Rustic indoor display featuring two handmade plant pots—one with a sculpted mouse in a woodland doorway, and the other with a small mouse climbing the side. Surrounded by leafy plants, a knitted blanket, wooden props, a hedgehog ornament, and a piece of driftwood.

Wild & Whimsical pieces to bring into your home

Wearable Whimsy

Nature-inspired jewellery offers a touch of wild charm — a tiny acorn pendant, a moth-shaped brooch, or a floral pin. Light and lovely, they’re easy to wear and full of story. These are the kinds of pieces that spark joy with their playful, poetic details.

Giftable Delights

When you want to share a little magic, handmade keepsakes are the perfect touch. Small but full of wonder — a woodland charm, a tiny trinket, a nature-inspired token — they carry whimsy and warmth in equal measure. Perfect for birthdays, thank-yous, or just-because moments.

Carry a Little Wildness

Even the smallest handmade piece can carry a sense of the wild — a glint of sunlight, a woodland walk, a pocketful of calm. Whether it’s something for your home or something to wear, it invites a slower, softer way of being. Just a little reminder that nature is never far away.
