Pretty Plaques was set up by myself in July 2009. I work from my home in London where I design all of the plaques and letters and run the business.
My business began after I made some plaques and large decorative wall letters for my son and daughter's rooms. Friends asked where I got them from and when I told them that they were my own creation they were amazed! They said I should try to sell them on ebay to make some extra money. So I did, and the orders came rolling in thick and fast! I suddenly found that all of my nights were taken up with painting and decorating wooden letters!
But I loved every second of it and decided to set up my own little business. So, in between running up and down the stairs to my son falling out of bed, my daughter wanting cuddles and painting my plaques and letters, I designed my own website and uploaded all of my products onto it. Thus, Pretty Plaques was born.
I hope you enjoy looking.
