I’ve always enjoyed being creative and when lockdown began and I was on furlough. This is when I found myself looking on the Internet for crafts to entertain me and my little boy (who was about 3 at the time) as i found it hard to occupy him for more than 5 minutes 😂

We also have two dogs Milo (6, black and tan cavalier) and Marley (1, blenheim cavalier). During lock down, we only had Milo, and I always always trying to find new ways to keep him entertained as he is such a playful pup. I made my own snuffle matt, tug toy and squeaky bone shaped toys for him to play with. From there, I decide that maybe I could sell these items on social media to see if they would be a hit or not. I then invested in a sewing machine and found the demand to be fairly decent. I had a logo made for me that was of our pup Milo, as the products were selling dog toys and accessories, I thought this suited the brand.

I also invested in a cricut machine as I’m obsessed with personalised items and thought, why pay for my items to be personalised if I can do it myself? So after some research, thats what I did and then had a slight rebrand as my product range had changed and increased.

Since then, I have never looked back and still do it along side my full time job. The range of items I now sell compared to 2 years ago has grown massively and I’ve learnt so many new skills along the way! As with any small business, it has its ups and downs but you learn along the way. It’s definitely kept me busy and I’m so grateful for all the orders and reviews and I hope it continues to grow
