Nitty Gritty On Growing Our Small Business
Thank you for supporting us, and for loving our designs!
To explain what’s happening with your order: yes, we are 100% an Irish business based in our studio in Wexford. It’s still just the two of us (Abi and Audrey) running our business since day one in 2020, while also keeping up with a very busy 3-year-old.
As the business grew, hand-printing every single item to order from our studio started taking over all our time, leaving us with very little room to actually sit down, draw, and create new designs.
To help us strike a balance, we recently started trailing a partnership with specialized print partners (like the fulfillment center in Prague).
Every piece is still 100% designed by us in Wexford, but this setup lets them handle the heavy machinery so we can keep creating. We’re still fine-tuning this massive change to our small business so bare with us.
Thanks again for supporting us,
Audrey & Abi
