Button Gifts

My name is Krista Nicholas, founder of Button Gifts and mum of two, to Charley, seven and Ruby, five. In 2012, after 22 years working in retail management, I followed my dream of setting up my own business, Button Gifts. Being a mother myself, and knowing how many birthday parties my children attend every year, I intially decided to create affordable and handmade children's gifts. I bought canvases, buttons, paint and ribbon and spent my evenings when the children were in bed creating my pictures.

From making children's pictures and canvases, I have branched out further into creating painted and decorated plant pots for the home, ideal as thank you, Christmas and birthday gifts for friends and family. I am only at the start of my business journey and I still have many ideas I want to put into production and I hope to keep on extending Button Gifts' product range.
