Parents want only the best for their
children. So when this big celebration comes knocking on your door,
well, it is kind of a headache deciding how to astonish them. We want
it to be simple yet mind-blowing, stylish yet colorful and vivid. So
how you can make this happen without your hair turning gray?</div>

Create your vision. It dictates the
whole preparation for the party. Do you want a cozy and nice meeting
with closest friends and family in your back yard or an over the top
celebration in some fascinating children’s games park? Think about
the venue, theme, decorations, menu, what your baby should wear and,
of course, prepare some children’s activities.</div>

create decorative ornaments using such materials as fabrics, lace and
wood. Kids clothing was always on my mind and I started making it
after some of my customers requested something special for their
kids.<br />

Little by little designing
for girls became my passion. The whole process, beginning from the
pattern, the selection of the fabrics, the craftsmanship and finally
the photography, is a challenge for me. Inspiration comes in several
ways and ideas pop in my mind at any time. Sometimes I even wake up
in the middle of the night with a new idea. Sometimes it all starts
with a fine piece of fabric. I always carry a little book and a
pencil in order to sketch a new idea. Now this became a part of my
daily routine. </div>

My studio is based in the
forest with a breath-taking view of a beautiful pine trees valley. I
love working there surrounded by sounds of birds, dogs and sewing
machine. I adore the serenity of the landscape and the harmony of
nature. Every little detail
matters to me so I am working on each item until I think it is
perfect. Every time, I challenge myself to create something that is
unique and different. I believe that every little girl has a unique
personality and should have her sole personal style. </div>

I am glad to see that my
work gains admirers from all over the world and I hope that more and
more girls along with their mothers will discover their own personal
style through my collection. Now I am about to release my new
collection of girl clothing for those who want their girls to be
classy and stylish. </div>

Hi, My name is Roz and am the
creator of Button Owl. I live just outside London, with my two
daughters (2 and 4 years old) and my husband. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
I have always loved to create since I
was little and was inspired by watching my mother sew beautiful
dresses for me. She used to allow me to choose the fabrics
which I absolutely adored.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
After school I trained in soft
furnishings and learned the art of traditional upholstery. I
was then accepted at the Royal School of Needlework and trained in
traditional and very beautiful embroidery techniques including
Coronation Goldwork. This technique is used on the Coronation
robes of a King or Queen of England when they are Coronated. </div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
After teaching embroidery and working
on small commissions, I took a detour into Corporate life until I
had my two young children. I realised that I needed to take a
leap of faith and set up the business I had always dreamed of having
and I couldn't be happier with that decision!</div>

Button Owl was
created after my search for unusual and unique products for my
daughters rooms. I couldn't find anything I really loved and so
designed and made my own, then realising that others were looking for
these types of unique products. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
I have absolutely fallen in love with
working with felts as they are available in so many beautiful colours
and allow me to create beautifully tactile products while still
sticking to a designed shape. I combine all the attention to detail
and techniques I have learned in the past, adding small details and
embellishments to Button Owl products.</div>

Nothing makes me happier than receiving
customer feedback and photographs of my products in their homes. I
just love the thought of people having and loving something so unique

bringing a smile to those who own a Button Owl goodie. </div>

My partner and I home educate our children so we both need flexible work. He has to work outside the home so drawing, stitching and running an Etsy shop works perfectly for me as I can fit my working hours around my children. I'm often stitching and helping with maths problems at the same time<br /> </div>

I've always loved drawing. Most of the rainy cold days in my childhood were spent drawing and I learnt to stitch as a child. But it all stopped when I went to college to study French. I started drawing and stitching again for my children.<br /><br />My business began when I embroidered one of my drawings onto a little purse for my daughter and shared it on flickr. A few fellow stitchers asked if I could sell the pattern, I opened an Etsy shop and so my business began.</div>

<br />A lot of my sketching is done while I'm doing other things, then when I get a few hours to myself I look through my sketch book to find something I want to develop and then work on it properly. Some of these sketches stay as drawings and some become embroideries. I use illustrator and photoshop to turn my drawings into clear patterns that can easily be stitched and traced. I’m not very techy but my oldest son is and he has helped me find my way around these programmes. </div>

I am so inspired by fabrics. Beautiful Liberty designs with tiny prints inspire me to make pixie dresses which I then appliqué onto my embroidered girls. I save every scrap of liberty that I cut away as it makes perfect tiny bunting or even tinier butterflies. I'm also inspired by lots of old children's picture books that we collected for the children but that I have kept for myself. I absolutely love miniature worlds like those in the brambly hedge books.</div>

I'm also working on some little tooth fairy cushions. But I do have plans to do more drawing for next year, hopefully creating some lovely prints for children's rooms.</div>

<span lang="">I also started my yoga
practice at more or less the same time; so crochet and yoga became my
therapy. Months later I was so happy and feeling so well that I
decided to sign up for a Yoga Teacher Training course and create my
very own crochet business.</span></div>

<span lang="">There were lots of
crochet patterns on the Web, many of them to make “Amigurumis”,
something I had never heard of, but apparently very popular with
kids. I loved these little creations and I used them to learn how to
read and write patterns. I was looking to create something of my own
and after some drawings and practice my first puppet was born: Frog!
Monkey, Giraffe and many others quickly followed and in that way
Petitacosa was born. The name comes from Catalan and means “little
thing”; at the beginning the name was a personal joke because it
was a really small business, but it was my little hobby. However,
with time, it has all been about making people smile with something
small and simple.</span></div>

<span lang="">Since then I have
received inspiration from a lot of places but especially from nature,
random images and books. I am always drawing or thinking about
attempting new characters, using new materials or trying out new
techniques. I work at home, not a fancy studio, but I try to make it
cozy. London is a cold city, so I enjoy working next to the window
making the most of the sun when it occasionally makes an appearance!</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span lang="">Petitacosa is still my
therapy and my small space to create. It allows me to sit down, use
my hands, remember my slow breathing and find inspiration. My hope is
for it to keep growing and find new locations to display the growing
number of characters. However, more importantly I want to keep making
people smile!</span></div>

stitched creatures and build little nests and sell it in my Etsy
shop, <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/woodlandtale" target="_blank">Woodland Tale</a>. Actually, I never thought I would be making
things for kids. It just happened that kids decided my softies
are good enough to make friends with. My first stitched creatures
were herbal sachets, Sage Fox and Lavender Bunny – they were not
meant for play, but children loved how they look. And I started
creating embroidered toys and dolls without herbs to make them more
suitable for kids.</span><br />

<span lang="en-US"><i>Please tell us where you find
inspiration for your creations.</i><br /><br />First of all, it’s nature
and everything woodland. And also, modern Japan and Japanese people,
their lifestyle, the way they see things. Old houses full memories
and secrets. Mooning over dreamy photography, minimal watercolours and
simple graphic designs. They give me that special mood, which keeps
my heart open to new ideas.</span> <br />

<span lang="en-US"><i>Please tell us a little
about your plans and dreams for the future.</i><br /><br />I hope my little
shop will be expanding. I have a pile of ideas for my little shop. In
short term perspective, I plan to make new stitched creatures,
improve “My little nest” collection of jewellery and introduce the
new collection of brooches called “In my Heart”. Besides, I do
hope to bring back to life my button art project. Also I realized the
need of a beautiful look-book for each series of my products, which I
hope will appear by the end of the year. </span></div>
