Lynne is incredibly passionate about the products she stocks and I know […]
A week ago today I was in an Airbnb in Glasgow nursing a very sore case of tendonitis in my knee. I was literally putting my feet up with an icepack on my knee after a long day setting up for Scotland’s Trade Fair at the SEC. For the first time ever my partner agreed […]

Well it’s now June! How did that happen? Not long until I’m on holiday, melting in the sun and milking goats! Yep you read that right! Milking goats!!! I’m whisking my family off over the summer to house-sit a small farm in the sunshine. The sunshine bit is not my favourite part of the deal […]
Here’s a lovely chunky announcement for you on this miserable cold wet day in May. It’s cheered me up after a rubbish day of things going wrong (getting the blue screen of death being just one of those things). I will be showcasing my work at the SEC in Glasgow in September as I’m going […]

The beginning of April is always totally hectic at Miloamde HQ. Not only does my son’s birthday fall at the start of the month, it’s also always the last week of school before the Easter holidays and I have to plan a birthday party just as I’m in the midst of getting ready to travel […]

My brass lapel pins have become quite a thing of late. I sold so many in the run up to Christmas that it made me realise they’re not just a one off thing. People love them and I’ve had so much fun lately making a range of speech bubble pins. Customers and followers on Instagram […]
Well hello there! We’re midway through January and I still haven’t done my tax return! I thought what better way to procrastinate than to add a new feature to my website and write a blog post all about it all. So here I am doing just that. Getting feedback from customers is amazing. It helps […]
I’ve just added a new Brass Pin to my online shop. It’s a tiny little guitar measuring just 4cm high and 1.5cm wide. It’s so goddamn cute! It’d make a perfect gift for any music lover or guitar player. I’m going to have to make one for myself as it’s so adorable. I made it […]
