Our Story
It all started in 2005. My son was turning 1 and of course a celebration had to be held but trying to find matching partyware? Impossible. How could I throw a party when I couldn't even find somewhere to buy decorations?
-
After searching locally and searching the internet I finally found one online shop and managed to celebrate my son's birthday in style. But that is when it struck me, how few shops actually provide all you need for a party - from tableware to wall decorations to balloons dotted around a room - and that I wanted a shop which could do all of that and more.
-
Being a mother with a full time job, opening a shop on a whim was not an option so instead I focused on my family and friend's parties. Any opportunity I could, I would practise creating displays and decorating rooms to make all of their events look extra special. Over time I got better and better at making big and small displays with balloons, taking courses and watching tutorials to inspire more fun designs.
-
Seven years later, in 2012, I finally took the plunge and opened my own shop in Sundon Park, my childhood home. Starting out with a limited number of products and a small customer base for event set-ups, it has been a years long process of expanding what I can provide in-store and out of store.
-
Since opening, I've been privileged to watch my customers go through many special events in their lives and provide for their weddings, baby showers, graduations. Now almost twenty years later, I am very proud to say that I can be the shop that helps a parent celebrate their child's first birthday (whether it be big or small) and make it as special as their baby is to them.
