Five (More) British Etsy Sellers to Watch

Last year I shared five of my favourite British Etsy sellers in the home and living category. But that small list barely scratched the surface of the incredible designer-maker talent on Etsy at the moment. So without further ado, here are five more British Etsy sellers to watch:

Florence and Moose

Multicolour concrete planter by Florence and Moose, £6

Florence and Moose founder Charlotte White makes delightfully minimalist concrete homewares. There isn’t a huge range, but Charlotte clearly opts for quality over quantity. So far the collection includes plant pots, coasters and decorative letters, all with unexpected twists. If you like your concrete with a splash of colour, Florence and Moose is the shop for you.

Blue Lizard Textiles

Vintage cushion cover by Blue Lizard Textiles, £21

Debbie, of Bath-based Blue Lizard Textiles, creates beautiful handmade cushion covers. Made from vintage and luxury fabrics, the cushions are bright, joyful and in most cases only available in very limited numbers. There’s a distinct midcentury influence to Debbie’s design, but you’ll also find some contemporary prints too.

Sincerely Louise

Triceratops knitting kit by Sincerely Louise, from £38

Now for something really different… Sincerely Louise is an award winning Etsy shop providing faux taxidermy knitting kits. So if you’ve ever dreamt of mounting a knitted triceratops head on your wall, Louise has you covered. The kits contain everything you need to make fun, whimsical animal head trophies for your kid’s bedrooms, and beyond.

Yvonne Ellen

Flamingo cake plate by Yvonne Ellen, £10.24

Shortly after creating this list, I spotted Yvonne Ellen’s homewares in John Lewis. Her cheerfully upcycled tableware is instantly recognisable. Yvonne embellishes vintage tea sets and dinnerware with her own vibrant illustrations. The pieces are perfect for displaying on walls, but are also food safe should you wish to use them at your next dinner party.

Happy Little Folks

Wooden block set in pastel by Happy Little Folks, £25

Happy Little Folks specialise in handmade wooden toys and home decor, and their products are truly special. Iga, the founder and chief designer of Happy Little Folks is clearly inspired by Scandinavian design, minimalism and geometry. The result is a delightful range of toys, designed to spark the imagination.
