The good bit
Have something in your head that doesn’t exist yet?
Anyone can buy something made a million times. This is the other thing: Annie makes the one that has never been made before, for you.

Annie’s making spaces
Annie fits her making around looking after her grandchildren, so there are only ever a handful of spaces in a month. When those are taken, they are genuinely taken. There is no second production line.

No mystery to it
How it works
- 1
Tell Annie your idea
A colour, a character, an occasion, a personality. "It is for my daughter, she loves foxes and the colour is that sort of dusty pink." That is plenty to start with.
- 2
Annie works it out
She will tell you honestly what is possible, what it would cost and how long it would take. If she cannot make it well, she will say so rather than take the money.
- 3
It is made by hand
Not picked off a shelf. Not printed on demand. Annie sits down over several evenings and makes your one, and sends you a photo before it is wrapped.
- 4
Meet your creation
Finished, photographed, wrapped by hand and posted, with a card naming who made it and who it was made for.
Nearly everything, honestly
What you can decide
-
Colours
Match a nursery, a wedding, a football team or a favourite jumper.
-
The character
A pet, a person, a favourite animal, or something entirely invented.
-
Size
Small enough for a shelf, or large enough to be a proper presence in a room.
-
Names & details
An initial stitched somewhere, a date, a tiny detail only you would notice.
The sort of thing
What Annie can make
Gonks with a particular personality, creatures that only exist in somebody’s head, keepsakes for a specific day.
