☀️ THANK YOU FOR THE BEST SUMMER YET ☀️
And just like that… summer 2026 is (almost!) a wrap 🥹🩷
What. A. Summer.
Genuinely our biggest, busiest and BEST one yet and looking back through these photos and videos has made me realise just how much has happened!
🏴 Eisteddfod was absolutely INCREDIBLE. Eight days of sunshine, chaos, laughs, meeting so many of you and selling more Welsh goodies than we could ever have imagined. And somehow, amongst all of that, our little viral Welsh flag claw clip became the beginning of a whole new adventure…
🎀 Claw Clip Cymru was born!
Something I hadn’t planned at the beginning of the summer and something that has already opened up a whole new world for us. I can’t quite believe where it’s heading and I’m SO excited for what’s coming next. 🥹
We had the lovely Sara join our little team before heading off to university and she has been an absolute DREAM. 🩷
And Bronwen basically held the fort at U Melt Me while we disappeared off to Eisteddfod 😂 — keeping everything going back at the shop while we were living our best (slightly exhausted 😂) maes life.
The shop has been absolutely FULL of gorgeousness too…
✨ Vurchoo jewellery arriving and becoming a new favourite
🫧 The return of U Melt Me whipped soaps
🍯 Hair Syrup quite literally FLYING off the shelves
😂 Art Wow mugs making us laugh on a daily basis
🎀 And Peony & Bee jewellery, accessories and clothing absolutely SERVING all summer long. To name a FEW!
There have been late nights, early mornings, boxes EVERYWHERE, sell-outs, restocks, ridiculous amounts of coffee, lots of laughs and probably a few moments where I’ve wondered what on earth I’m doing 😂… but I LOVED IT!
Most importantly, THANK YOU.
To every single person who walked through our pink door, visited us at Eisteddfod, ordered online, bought a claw clip, shared a post, tagged us, told a friend or simply stopped for a chat — you made this summer what it was. 🩷
Supporting a small independent business means more than you probably realise.
Here’s 20 slides of pure summer chaos and U Melt Me life 🌸☀️
P.S clawclipcymru claw clip is back for pre order once more 🏴 😘
