At first glance, it's just a craft kit.

A few pieces of wood.

Some paint.

A little glue.

Nothing particularly exciting.

Or is it?

Because if you look a little closer...

You'll see a child opening the bag and learning persistence.

Choosing colours and learning confidence.

Waiting patiently.

Solving problems.

Making decisions.

Trying again.

And then, almost without noticing, something changes.

The project starts to come together.

And so does the child.

By the end, it isn't really about the finished craft.

It's about the smile.

The pride.

The child standing there saying:

✨ "Look what I made."

And honestly?

That's our favourite part.

Because it was never really about the farm.

It was about the child who made it.

Because let's be honest... crafting isn't just for kids! 🎨🖌️

Every kit is laser cut in-house here in Malahide,Dublin, ready for you to make it your own.

We were honoured to make this wooden welcome sign for 8 communion friends who were celebrating with a party together.
Each family had their own table and we made wooden table signs for each child with their name and matching communion girl on them.
On the back of the table sign, we placed the floral frame and child's name and left lots of space for every guest at the table to sign it as a keepsake of their special day.

For all enquiries, please DD us. Thank you. Lisa
