Welcome to Spring!



Hello

Welcome to Auntie Kitty’s Button Box, a handcraft business from Leitrim, Ireland. I make handmade gifts for babies, toddlers and all Sock Monkey Enthusiasts.

I started this business in my own kitchen when I decided to turn what had been a lifetime hobby into a businesss. When the world economy failed in 2008 so did my Interior Design business and I turned my hand to teaching Home Crafts, and how to Make, Do, and Mend in the home. I began to explore various crafts and slowly honed my crafting skills. In 2013 I set up Auntie Kitty's Button Box making baby blankets, bags and soft toys. And began selling my products at Craft fairs around the country.

I learned my love of crafting originally from my Mam and Aunts who were wonderfull craftefrs and always had something handmade on the go. Sadly when Kitty passed on, I inherited her craft room stuff in which was a big box of buttons. Initially I put buttons on everything I made and someone once asked me where I got all the beautiful buttons I replied "from Auntie Kitty's Button Box" and the rest as they say if history!

Over time I cultivated the products that I loved to make and that customers loved. I happened upon the Sock Monkey and it became my most popular toy. A really fun gift for babies and toddlers and of course all monkey enthusiasts.

My uniquely designed baby blankets are a big hit for new babys and can be personalised

The Snuggle Dollies, singles and twins were a later addition and have now become a bestseller, well they are pretty cute!.

I really hope you’ll enjoy your shopping experience with me and that you love my handmade products as much as I have loved making them.

My very best to you and thank you for stopping by.
