LITTLEBIRD MAKES

Project  Littlebird Makes - my own Christmas card and gift wrap business

Christmas Shop  When the COVID-19 pandemic brought weddings to a standstill, I created a collection of Christmas cards and gift wrap as an additional creative venture.

The collection was centred around hand-painted watercolour illustrations, developed into a range of festive designs for cards, wrapping paper and other decorative items. Alongside designing the collection, I created and managed a dedicated Christmas shop on Etsy, developing the product presentation, photography and shop branding, and managing the products through to sale.

The project gave me the freedom to explore a more playful approach to illustration, while adapting my skills and business during an uncertain period.
