ABOUT TAHLIA PAIGE
Hey! I'm Tahlia, founder here at Tahlia Paige. I'm 28, I live in South Wales with my lovely assistant, Bink, and you'll usually find me either in front of the sewing machine or with my design tablet in my lap. I design every pattern and make every product you see, inspired by endangered species.
It all started with a hedgehog in the garden
We partner with PTES to raise awareness and funds to support hedgehogs
I wanted to use my designs to raise awareness, and this is what I did when I built my product collection. Now, I also have a partnership with the PTES, supporting hedgehogstreet.org.I aim to provide gorgeous gifts to you, whether that be for gifting on or keeping for yourself, that are useful and pretty, which also raising awareness of the lovely species we feature, and perhaps you'll even find a way to keep these animals in your own garden! In the future, I'll be working on new products to go along with what you already have, new patterns with lovely species to learn about, and more partnerships, so a percentage of your payments will go to helping the species we feature.
Testimonial by Elin

Reader
I chose a book sleeve as i hadn't seen any other shops selling this type of product. I also loved the design that this shop had to offer as i thought it looked very cosy and quirky. By buying this book sleeve i am able to keep my books clean and tidy, especially when I'm on the go and need to put a book in my bag. I use this product almost everyday as i travel a lot with my books.

More about Tahlia, Founder of Tahlia Paige
Tahlia started her textiles journey in school, and went on to study surface pattern design at University in Cardiff. The business was launched in 2021 after graduating during the lockdown, and keeping track of a hedgehog visitor on a trail camera.
'I love gift-giving, I think it's a lovely way to show someone that you listen to them, support their interests, and show your love. Naturally it's what I wanted to make, and I loved the idea of giving a gift with a story, a story about a species in trouble, that keeps the conversation going about our endangered species. Plus they make very cute patterns!'
In her free time, Tahlia enjoys reading, which has of course inspired a whole collection of bookish gifts. She won't go far without her kindle. She also loves spending time with her partner and puppy, exploring the outdoors by foot or in a cute vintage car. She also has been learning Welsh since the business launched to feel more connected to her Welsh identity.
