About the Lucky Dip

Not quite a product, not quite a diary - this is where I share fragments, oddments, and small treasures I haven’t been able to ignore. Some pieces are for sale. Some have already been tucked into parcels. Others are here just because they spark joy.


A visual scrapbook of small joys- fabric scraps, found objects, tags, and mismatched lovelies. Some have already been tucked into parcels and some are here to simply admire. Not everything is for sale … but everything was loved enough to be shared.

Small surprises. Everyday magic

Little bundles, spontaneous pairings, and one-of-a-kind finds that didn’t quite fit anywhere else (but still deserve a spotlight). Every listing is a Lucky Dip in spirit: carefully chosen, here’s what’s currently up for grabs from the Dip. A rotating cast of oddments, fragments and vintage curios.
