SOPHIE BY THE SEA 🦀 🌊

So this has happened 😱

With all the changes to my life this past year, I decided it was time for a fresh start & a rebrand !

🦀 Sophie by the Sea 🌊
is the new name of my business & my lovely little shop in Sandgate.

I had my very first shop “Neelu” at 16 years old,

“Anna’s” in my late 20’s

Grace interiors/Grace & Folk in my 30’s

& finally 🦀 Sophie by the Sea 🌊 in my 40’s

It’s taken all this time to put my own name above my shop but now feels like the right time !

Thankyou to Stu ironfist.art71 for working with me to create the perfect sign ! 🦀 🌊

🦀 Sophie by the Sea 🌊 is a lovely little coastal collection of things from Homewares, small pieces of furniture, gifts & cards to Beachwear, bags & jewellery.

Not forgetting our resident French 🇫🇷 friend Pascale, famous for her Aprons & tea-towels, place mats,napkins, doorstops & more !

Thankyou to everyone who supported & contributed to Grace & Folk, I’m so proud of what we achieved in the past 8 & 1/2 years together !

Now it’s time to focus on me 🦀 🌊

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY TO MY LOVELY LITTLE SANDGATE SHOP 🌞 🌊 🐚 🦀

A year ago I took a leap of faith and opened a second shop in another seaside town ! Little did I know that my whole life was about to change!

Marriage, closing my big shop (that I worked so hard to build for 8 years in Folkestone) so that I could homeschool Grace! Focus on ME & my FAMILY rather than the business !

People thought I was crazy, they probably still do, but I couldn’t be happier and feel I’m exactly where I’m meant to be ! 🌊 🌞 🐚 🦀

Pressing pause on my business & recalculating (& relocating) was the best thing I ever did ! It allowed me space to see what I really wanted & needed from Life!

I’m excited for this next chapter! Turning 40 😱 changing & growing the business to reflect who I am now !

Whatever happens you’ll find
“Sophie by the Sea” 🌊 🦀 🌞 🐚 ….
