About ... Destined for Home
My values are I finding products that are made by other small business owners either Made in Scotland or UK. High quality products which are unique (not found in other stores).
I also look to source high quality products made in other countries that makes these products very well for example Italy has the best leather.
I am also passionate about products which either have had another life or may go on to have another life, like Bamboo, Viscose, Modal or Soya Candles in recyclable containers.
I started my business in 2016 affter being made redundant, having been told I have a good eye for sourcing nice gifts. Opening my shop in Leith within 2 years the street was closed while Edinburgh City Council installed a tram system which took 4 years (2019-2023), during that time we all had to deal with Covid-19, so it was a very difficult and challenging time. In 2023 I took on the shop next door and opened it up to local artists.
In 2026 my lovely Landlord decided to sell the premises, so the universe provided in the way of a shop becoming available in Gullane. As I write this we are fitting it out and hope to be open in May 2026.
Look forward to seeing you in sunny Gullane OR enjoy browsing my Website - please do follow me on Facebook or Instagram.
