Mikaela’s work is predominantly shot in Suffolk, focusing on our stories, the Earth’s energy and our relationship with nature. She also has a big obsession with trees! Mikaela offers limited edition and original prints and can also create personal commissioned pieces.

Feathers and Fellows

Crafted in the Suffolk countryside, Feathers and Fellows create hand poured soy candles with a range of wonderful and relaxing scents. The owners Claire, Michelle and Sarah are advocates for creating a warm and comforting atmosphere with the right scent.

After months of research , they have put together a range of beautiful candles and gift sets, perfect for your loved ones and friends. As mums of little ones, Claire, Michelle and Sarah are aware of the amount of waste that can accumulate. With this in mind, they are passionate about sharing how to reuse any jars/bags/lids or bottles that may come with your purchase.

Le Petit Nest is a small family run business in Lowestoft. Born out of love for the seasons and what they bring, Le Petit Nest aims to bring the magic from the outside, indoors. There’s a large range of selected seasonal homeware and gifts; some pieces have even travelled all the way from Denmark and India. You’ll find something for everyone on the La Petit Nest website, including Christmas gifts and homeware pieces!
