About

Hi, I'm Christina, the designer and maker behind Kindred Makes.

Three years ago, I swapped my former life as a teacher for a new adventure in Scotland.

As a former primary teacher, I have a particular love for traditional toys and colourful artwork found in children's books. That influence can often be seen in my work, which tends to be playful, simple and full of character. I've never quite grown up—and I think that's reflected in my work. I believe creativity, curiosity and playfulness don't have an age limit, and I hope my designs bring a little of that joy into your day.

Thank you for visiting my little corner of Scotland and supporting independent handmade creativity.
