Our last market of 2024 is officially done!
As always, I’ve caught my December cold (again!) 😆🤧, but that hasn’t stopped me from reflecting on this year.

It’s been a challenging year for retail businesses, and while our revenue is slightly down compared to last year, I’m incredibly grateful to still be going strong and making good progress.

Thank you all for your continued support—it truly means the world to us! Here’s to an even brighter 2025!

Massive thanks to @urbanmakers_uk, @clapham_makers_market and @pexmas to having us to trade with you!

Huge thanks to all my customers! You made me have the courage to keep creating cute, colourful and fun things! I love you guys!

We will be back in spring/summer market 2025!

Thrilled to share the adorable jigsaw puzzle books I collaborated on with the fantastic Dublin-based publisher, @townhouse_books Townhouse Publishing! 🎉

What began as a Jungle Train jigsaw puzzle book has blossomed into a delightful four-book collection, thanks to the incredible response to the first book. I’ve just wrapped up work on the final two titles, and I can’t wait for you to see them next year! 🚂✨

Currently, Jungle Train and Farm Train are delighting young readers in Portugal, Spain (Spanish and Catalan), Greece, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, Slovakia, Finland, Lithuania, Denmark, and France. Excitingly, English editions are in the works and set to launch soon—stay tuned!

A huge thank you to the amazing team at Townhouse Publishing—Ellie, Kate, Hannah, Veneta, Holli, and their boss—for trusting me with this project.
I’d also like to express my gratitude to my agent, Will, for his invaluable support throughout this journey.

To Our EU Customers 💌

If you’re based in the EU, please take a moment to read the announcement in the slides. It’s an important update about upcoming changes due to new regulations.

I’m truly hopeful we’ll find a solution to these challenges soon. Running a small business has become increasingly difficult with so many new hurdles, but I’m committed to navigating this as best as I can.

For our UK and non-EU customers, there’s no need to worry—these changes won’t affect you, and we’ll continue trading as usual.

Thank you all for your incredible support during these tough times. 💕

Warmly,
Liv

🎄 **Important Update for Christmas Orders** 🎄

If you’re planning to order from us for Christmas and want your gifts to arrive on time, please take a moment to carefully review this post.

Additionally, we’ve recently learned about the new EU GPSR regulation, which comes into effect on December 13th. Unfortunately, if we’re unable to find a solution, we may need to temporarily suspend shipping to European countries.

We’re currently discussing our options and will provide an update as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding and support during this time! 💕
