Jan here, creative director and Mum in the mother-daughter trio that makes up Thea With Love.
When I was a child I loved studying picture books and was fascinated by the colours and detail in every illustration. I always encouraged my own kids to read and take notice of the pictures and words.
Growing my family up in the Perth hills with an abundance of native wildlife and flowers, I noticed that they were also intrigued by pictures and stories that reflected the environment around them.
This intrigue and love of Aussie wild flowers and animals translated to when they had their own babies and my daughters wanted clothes and baby products that could teach their children about the environment around them.
These two things combined; a love for illustration and pictures, and the magic of the Australian bush, led me to being who I am now: an artist that designs unique patterns and children's clothing, blankets and nursery decor that showcase the magic of the Australian bush.
My hope is that your little ones' will connect and fall in love with our koala, kangaroo, blue fairy wrens, echidnas' possums and wombats as they're dressed and swaddled in our organic softness. I also hope that the beauty I've tried to capture in our wildflower designs inspires them and encourages them to protect these precious flora and fauna as they grow into adults who have kids themselves.
There is no limit to the imagination nor the wonder inspired by the environment around us, so stay tuned as Thea With Love brings you and your gorgeous bubs more thoughtful designs and eco-friendly clothing, blankets and decor!
