Say hello to Sugar Plums Play Café ✨

A fairytale-inspired play café designed for Montessori-style play, meaningful family moments and a little everyday magic.

The branding was created to capture the warmth, wonder and nostalgia at the heart of the business, combining soft storybook-inspired details with a calm, welcoming feel that appeals to both little ones and grown-ups alike.

From the whimsical fairy characters (say hi to Flora and Finn the cafe mascots!) and playful hand drawn illustrations to the gentle colour palette and playful patterns, every element has been designed to create a brand that feels magical, memorable and full of imagination.

A place to play, explore, create and make precious memories together. 🧚

I had SO much fun pulling this brand together. What do we think?!

Another month flown by! May was such a busy one, work was heavy but holidays helped!

Fails 👎🏻: Another slow month on socials, my month round up is all I can seem to manage at the moment and more working outside of my hours…boo!!

Wins 🏆: I signed 7 new brand clients this month and only have 2 slots left for branding in August

June is so busy with lots of exciting brand projects lined up. Might need another holiday by the end of it 😂 Praying I’ll find time to share some brand projects I’ve completed recently before the next months recap 🫠

Jumping on this Insta trend with  .now

A logo is important… but branding has never just been about a logo.

You can recognise a business from its typography, colours, tone of voice, imagery, patterns, layouts, energy, feeling… sometimes before you even spot the logo itself.

That’s the difference between having a logo and having a brand.

The logo might be the face of the brand, but the personality lives in everything around it.

Here’s a collection of some of my favourite logos/logo marks worked on for my clients taking away everything else.

Which one is your favourite?!

Meet the new Vintage Charm ✨

After nearly 4 years in business, Chloe felt it was time for branding that truly reflected the quality and personality of her luxury vintage garden games hire business.

The new look is classic, elegant and premium, with an injection of colour and playfulness to capture the fun, social side of the brand and those spring and summer event vibes.

We also created a suite of brand patterns to make Vintage Charm instantly recognisable across socials and marketing.

I’d love to know your thoughts!

And that’s a wrap for March! After a pretty grim February of illness, this months been so much brighter! Packed with new clients, exciting projects, my brand new website launched (go take a peek!), morning walks, goat walking, time with my girls and a trip to the gorgeous city of Paris 🇫🇷

✨March Highlight: Paris
✨Biggest Business Win: Web launch
👎🏻What slipped in March: Consistency on socials, you can’t always do it all!

I’d love to hear what yours were for March?

Say hello to the new look The Little Grey Girl branding!

Same logo, new vibe…✨

Gemma, owner of TLGG (a vibrant yarn brand), came to me for a refresh of her branding. She loved her logo (so this remained the same), but wanted some fresh life given to the overall branding to better reflect her brands products and personality.

What I created as part of the refresh to achieve this…

✨ A Richer, Bolder Colour Palette
Why? To stand out in the yarn market which predominantly sees the use of neutrals and pastel palettes. This new bold palette better reflects the brand and its colourful products.

✨ Fun Bespoke Brand Icons
Why? To give the brand its own recognisable visual elements that can be used across packaging, social media and marketing to build a stronger, more distinctive brand identity. These have been designed to look slightly handcrafted and imperfect to reflect the crafting side of the brand.

✨ Brand Patterns
Why? To add personality and consistency across the brand, helping packaging and marketing feel more premium, cohesive and instantly recognisable.

✨ Social Media Templates
Why? To keep the brand looking consistent and professional online, while making it quicker and easier to create content that still feels on-brand.

So, what do we think?!

Fancy a brand that actually feels clear and easy to use this year?

All of my brand packages include a custom brand guide, so you always know what to post, choose and create ⚡️

When your brand has direction, showing up becomes simpler and your business grows with intention.
But if everything feels a bit all over the place, it’s much harder for the right people to recognise you or trust what you do.

Let’s get you a brand that supports your business (and takes the guesswork away) ✨
