Spring in Wales

As the light lingers a little longer on the hills, snowdrops and daffodils begin to dot the landscape, a quiet sign that spring has arrived in Wales.

It’s a season that draws us outdoors, awakening the senses and inviting us to notice the small changes around us as days soften and lengthen.

Few things speak of spring in Wales quite like the daffodil.

A symbol of hope, renewal, and quiet resilience, it returns year after year, whatever the winter that came before. To create a daffodil by hand is to honour that meaning a gentle moment to pause, to focus, and to find joy in the process as much as the finished piece.

The DIY daffodil kit, crafted by an expert paper maker Carta & Wood, is not about perfection. It’s about presence. About working with your hands, switching off the noise, and reconnecting with the simple pleasure of making.

This season, we invite you to take a pause.

Open the windows. Let the spring air in.
Put the kettle on.
Clear a small space at the table.

Whether you’re crafting, gifting, or simply surrounding yourself with handmade pieces that tell a story, spring is the perfect time to cherish the beauty of things made slowly and with intention.

Because handmade isn’t just about what we create, it’s about how it makes us feel.

Unrushed.
Connected.
Present.

Welcome, Spring
Croeso’r gwanwyn.
