I've been creating Indie Maker & Shop Pinterest boards to shine a light on products and small business I love all for Christmas shopping in the UK 🎁🎄🎁. This first selection is all under £20. They're absolutely steals I think you'll agree. Check out my board here uk.pinterest.com/sophiekatecr...

I’m finally beginning to make myself at home here on Bluesky, so I thought I’d share some of my handmade creations.

I’m Sophie, I design and make jewellery and accessories from faux leather printed with my own colourful artwork, attached to eco ply painted a gorgeous metallic purple

#UKMakers

The High St’s rolling out their generic Christmas gifts again 🎁. I know it’s easy to spend your hard-earned money there, but this year why not do things a bit differently. Shop Small, support real people, and boost the UK economy

To help you I've created these Pinterest boards full of indie finds

AGEISM

As the clock counts down to the moment when the US officially welcomes back a man whose entire campaign is built on hate and division, I feel compelled to shout from the rooftops: I Choose Love! Today and Everyday

#ChooseLoveNotHate

I recently obtained a vintage (some 50 years old) petrographic microscope. It needed some fixing (e.g. one of the polarizing filters had to be replaced). But it is working now, and looking at thin sections of meteorites under it is amazing

My new Speech Bubble brooch and I'm kinda chuffed about how this photo turned out

Space is quite literally, infinitely fascinating 💫

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

I've sold out of my Speech Bubble brooches that I had listed! So I thought I ought to put another one on my shop. But a different message this time "Day Dreamer"

This is Pickle, she may be approaching 15 years old and considered a Senior dog! But she wants to assure you she has no plans on acting her age anytime soon, and she strongly recommends you do the same 🫶

An experiment. Can you like this post if (and only if) you play and buy video games.

Some people over on Twitter/X seem to think it's only game developers here.

Coming to my online shop with The British Craft House soon 🎄

Brand new product added to my @britishcrafthouse online store just in time for *checks notes*... Christmas? Well everyday is the perfect day for ice cream after all, especially when it looks this good.
