All About Little Silverleaf...
Hi everyone and welcome to the brand new Little Silverleaf website! I'm so excited to launch this new and improved site and to bring my cards, gifts and stationery to you direct from a shiny new platform!
For anyone new, here's a little background on the business...
I started Little Silverleaf as a creative outlet and hobby back in 2008. Using old books and maps, I would work away at my kitchen table making stationery items to sell on Etsy and at craft markets and fairs on the weekends. It was great fun, I met lots of amazing crafters and business owners, and I learned a whole lot! But after a while I grew restless, and finally realised that what I really wanted to do was to design my own stationery lines from scratch.
So in 2012 I relaunched the business, starting with my very first line of handmade greetings cards, all designed and handmade by me, right here in Scotland. Over time I've busied myself adding other product lines to the range, such as decorative bunting, notebooks, badges, stickers and more, but true to my roots I've always used recycled kraft card, and paper from sustainably managed forests wherever possible, and continue to handmake as many products as I can.
As the business slowly grew, I was asked to join the fantastic online store Not On The High Street, and later I began selling wholesale to a few galleries and shops around the UK. Eventually I set up my first website to sell directly to customers, and soon afterwards joined Thortful and later Scribbler where I license a selection of card designs. In recent years I expanded further by joining the wholesale platform Faire which has allowed me to reach more retailers, and in 2025 I'm thrilled to move things forward yet again, this time by upgrading my own little corner of the internet, allowing me more freedom to play around with new products, talk directly to customers, and of course, to sell all my items direct!
I'm so pleased you've stopped by and had a look around the site. I plan to add to it and build on more as time goes by - new designs, new products and new directions - so please do keep in touch. I'm excited for this next chapter in the Little Silverleaf story, and I hope you'll stick around too to find out what happens next!
