SeaKisses
Inspired by their life on the coast of Cornwall, Jo Brown and Sue Hawken met at the school gate. They combined their knowledge of print, Jo from a career selling stationery products and Sue from a career publishing magazines, to produce some prints that celebrated the area they lived in. Slowly they developed a homeware range that they loved and wanted to put in their own homes. Everything was initially made and packed at the kitchen table and has gradually developed with demand.
Today they make prints for most coastal towns and villages all over the UK, understanding how much people love these places and want to celebrate them. With a small, talented and hardworking team they have built a business determined to produce good quality products that don't cost the earth - either financially or on their choice of materials.

Toasted Crumpet Designs
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder; however when you are surrounded by such stunning countryside it's hard for anyone not to fall in love with it. Our Creative Director and Founder, Jo Clarke, is continually inspired by the great outdoors and captures the glory of British nature through her contemporary watercolours.
At Toasted Crumpet we are passionate about bringing that beauty indoors, to enjoy time and time again, whether that's by receiving one of our luxury greetings cards or by sipping your morning coffee from one of our elegant fine bone china mugs. Toasted Crumpet has a dynamic eye-catching range of beautifully designed stationery & giftware.
Jo's love of the British Countryside stems from a rural upbringing on her parents' farm. Having worked as a Chartered Accountant in the city, her creations are now mainly inspired by the time spent with her young boys, exploring the parklands and woodlands around Surrey.
Toasted Crumpet is extremely proud to produce it's full range of products exclusively in Britain.
Anna Wright
Anna is an artist and illustrator. Her upbringing, in Dumfries and Galloway, southwest Scotland, was surrounded by rural life, which alongside her love for colour, pattern and textiles, has shaped her work.
Since exploring these influences at Edinburgh College of Art, Anna has grown her trademark style of colour and humour using a mixture of fabric, feathers, pen, ink & paint. On any given day you'll find her in her studio sketching away or delving into her chest of fabric that she has sourced from varied locations. Animals are her main focus and she uses bold inky lines to capture their humour and character adding fabric & feathers to bring colour & texture to her drawings. If the mood is right the images are signed off with a witty caption adding to the joy of the creation.
Anna now works from her studio, back home where she grew up. Her work has been featured in House and Garden, Country Life and Artists & Illustrators.
