Lily and Giraffe

Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire

My name is Helen and I started Lily & Giraffe after having my second daughter. While on maternity leave I started sewing for my girls and realised that I would love to be able to turn my hobby into my business (and I was running out of space in their wardrobes!!).

I am a fabric addict and particularly love any fabrics that are bright and colourful. All my clothing is made with love and attention to detail and I believe that children should dress as children rather than mini-adults! As well as clothing, Lily & Giraffe now produce a range of accessories and craft kits for both adults and children.

Mama Tip

Finding a work/life balance can be difficult but always try and make time for yourself, even if it's just to have a bath with the door locked!
