Woohoo!! It's just the beginning...

Well we're here, with our own blog!

We are maggie+boyd, a daydream emporium.

Daydreaming is pretty much a fulltime hobby for us.
We dream about creating fantastic things from our favourite materials - Textiles, Paper, Wood and Metal.
We've got ourselves a Facebook Page and that's where you'll find our ONLINE SHOP - maggie+boyd SHOP.

We're a product of our eclectic and wonderfully creative family. With four generations to draw inspiration from, maggie+boyd is a small homage to their love, influence and tremendous generosity.
We grew up appreciating the love, time, effort and thought that went in to the many handmade items that we received...a crochet pair of baby booties, wooden cars and trucks, delicious preserves and chutneys, artworks in crayon and in acrylic, plants grown from cuttings and many, many hands-on lessons. These things often became our treasures, kept in special places, conjuring memories to this day. And more importantly many of them have been handed down through the generations, from grandmother to son, father to daughter, cousin to cousin, uncle to nephew...continuing on the love, lessons and memories.

It's that idea of making things that capture the imagination of multiple generations that really drives us. We want to create special things that will become your future heirlooms. Things that you will have passed down through the generations with stories both old and new being told about them.

This is where we'll bring you our dreamings. Some will be good, some will be disasters and a few pearlers will knock your socks off!
