Handmade Kids was created to simply recognise the cool, quirky and unique handmade clothes and toys that Aussie’s are making. I love gorgeous, one-off creations that have been made with care, imagination, dedication and time.

Handmade Kids has grown and is now regarded as a bit of a ‘one stop shop’ for everything a bambino, toddler, kiddy or mummy could ever want!

I am mum to two boys. Living in a rural town in Western Australia means that stores that stock original items are about as rare as dental floss for chickens. Handmade Kids is really just my own personal shopping directory ‘wish list’!

Caz is a contributor who came on board in July 2009. I have been friends with Caz since the mid 80’s – our friendship having survived hypercolour, perms and plastic fluro earrings!  She is also a mum to a drooling bubba and also an enthusiastic shopper of kids’ toys and clothes. Writing for Handmade Kids has saved her from yet another chorus of “the Wheels on the Bus”!

We believe that Handmade offers a wonderful world of undiscovered talent. Our aim is to let you in on those discoveries!

Handmade Kids is your place to find beautiful, original items for kids that are Australian made.

All items featured on Handmade Kids are created by artists, crafters and independently owned businesses – there is nothing mass produced here. They have the blisters to prove it!

We truly hope you enjoy browsing the high quality Australian goods that have been created by clever Australian folk.
