Christmas Has Arrived at Crafts with Lauren!
IT'S OCTOBER 1ST… AND CHRISTMAS HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED! 🎄🎅
Yes, I know.
It’s October.
Yes, Halloween was approximately five minutes ago.
And yes, I am fully aware that some of you will be thinking “Lauren, it is WAY too early!”
But when you run a small business, Christmas starts a lot earlier than December.
And today is a pretty exciting day because 90% of our Christmas collection is officially LIVE!
Christmas for both brands 🎄🐾☕📚
This year is particularly exciting because we're launching Christmas across both sides of the business — Rupert & Coand CWL Accessories.
🐾 Rupert & Co
Christmas isn't just for humans!
Rupert & Co has been busy behind the scenes creating festive goodies for your four-legged family members.
Think Christmas dog bandanas, bow ties, collar flowers and festive accessories designed to make your pups even more adorable this Christmas.
Because obviously your dog needs a Christmas outfit.
Actually… they probably need several.
☕📚 CWL Accessories
Then we have CWL Accessories, bringing the festive treats for the humans.
You'll find Christmas cold cups, bookmarks, cute accessories and gift ideas designed for the coffee lovers, book lovers and general Christmas enthusiasts.
There are cosy designs.
Festive designs.
Cute designs.
And quite a few things that I would happily keep for myself!
90% LIVE… and there's still more!
I've been working ridiculously hard behind the scenes to get the Christmas collection ready.
Designing.
Making.
Photographing.
Writing listings.
Updating the website.
Packing stock.
And probably drinking far too much coffee.
And I'm so excited that 90% of the collection is now available to shop.
There are still a few final products coming, but the majority of Christmas is officially here!
Shop small this Christmas ❤️
As the Christmas shopping season gets underway, I also want to remind you just how much shopping small means.
When you buy from Crafts with Lauren, you're supporting a small business that is still run by one person.
Me.
Every order helps me keep creating, developing new products and doing something I genuinely love.
So if you choose to buy from a small business this Christmas, thank you.
And if one of those small businesses happens to be mine…
an extra massive thank you.
The Christmas chaos begins!
October 1st marks the start of what is always one of the busiest times of the year for a small business.
So while everyone else is slowly starting to think about Christmas shopping, I'll be here surrounded by fabric, cups, packaging, parcels and probably an increasingly concerning number of lists.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
Christmas 2026 is officially underway. 🎄
Both Rupert & Co and CWL Accessories are ready.
90% of the collection is live.
And I cannot wait to see which products become your Christmas favourites this year.
So grab yourself a coffee, put the Christmas playlist on if you're that person, and have a look…
Christmas has arrived at Crafts with Lauren! 🎄🐾☕📚
