Kerry Eugenie Prendiville is an Irish artist, designer and illustrator inspired by natural landscapes, the flora and the fauna.

She has studied and completed a BA (Hons) in Graphic Design and Illustration, with the Interactive Design Institute in Scotland, accredited by the University of Hertfordshire. Kerry Eugenie lives in Co. Clare.

Based in Kerry, Anne-Louise is the colourful creator behind Dana's eclectic designs. She studied jewellery making in Quebec before travelling around New Zealand, which is where the idea to use vinyl records to make jewellery came about.

With a focus on 'slow fashion' all of Anne-Louise's records come from donations or charity shops, and she hopes that her stunning designs can make people rethink their relationship with 'waste' and see the beauty in repurposing the unwanted.

Aoife graduated from Limerick School of Art and Design in 2013 and has been practising in ceramics since. Her studio is based in Ballymorris just a short drive from Limerick City.

Aoife works primarily with white earthenware clay using an unusual printing process to create her unique designs. Coloured slips are applied to a plaster slab by paint brushes, sponges, slip trailers and other tools with each tool making a unique mark. Clay is poured on top and when dry, the clay is cut into shapes and then folded.

Established in 1976 by Nicolas Mosse after training in England and Japan. His mission was to produce beautiful, functional pottery in the style of Irish Spongeware.

The artisans who work at the pottery are all local and trained in-house to make, or ‘throw’, the pottery shapes and to decorate them. Many have been apart of the team since the very beginning and now even some of their children work with Nicholas Mosse Pottery, so it’s a real family affair and a testament to the richness of rural life in Ireland.

Lorna’s story began during lockdown where she started a hobby with clay in her converted garden shed in Cork! She loved coming up with new designs and creating each piece. Gathering inspiration from new styles, collections from nature and interior each pair of earrings are slow-made by hand. (This is not fast fashion!)

Having completed an art and design portfolio course in 2011, whilst also having obtained a commerce degree and working internationally in multiple sales and marketing roles. Lorna has been able to use all of this as an advantage when setting up her business.

Best friends Alex and Joanna who dance laugh and work together - in any order really as it usually happens all at once. They are the kind of people who usually wear baggy, black or grey clothes but socks, socks are very special to them. They choose them very carefully, sometimes odd socks, sometimes patterned or themed and always -lots of colour. That's why designing socks is what they are passionate about. Their socks brighten up any occasion from boring business meetings to a wonderful wedding, lunch with family, or party with mates.

Hanna Backmo is originally from a small island on the west coast of Sweden and came to Ireland in 2001. While here, Hanna developed a new passion for beekeeping. One thing led to another and after a few years, Hanna found the perfect combination of her work as a dressmaker, and an obsession for beautiful, natural fabrics and beekeeping.

Hanna’s Bees is based in East Cork. Producing honey, beeswax candles, reusable beeswax food wraps, and beeswax leather and woodcare products.

She spent her childhood as a very free-range child. Exploring the rocky shores and woods together with her siblings. Sailing and swimming were favourite past-times during summer, while dark winter days were spent inventing, creating, and building useful things. The curiosity, creativity, and love of nature that was born then have stayed with Hanna all her life and permeate everything she does. From gardening and beekeeping to parenting and creating natural and sustainable products from what Mother Nature has to offer.
