About Us
Hello and welcome — I’m Mel, the face (and hands!) behind Tiny Threads.
I'm a Yorkshire mum, now living my biggest dream: running a small handmade baby clothing business from home, while raising my daughter. Before motherhood, I spent all of my adult life working in recruitment. But after becoming a mum, everything shifted. I realised I wanted more freedom — not just in how I work, but in how I live. I wanted to be there for the milestones, the cuddles, the playtimes… all the little everyday moments that matter most.
That’s when I picked up a sewing machine and started learning — through online courses, YouTube tutorials, and a lot of trial and error! What started as a creative outlet quickly became a passion, and now a growing business I’m so proud of.
Each piece I create is handmade with love, care, and attention to detail. My focus is always on comfort, style, and — most importantly — practicality. I believe baby clothes should let little ones move, play, and explore freely, while still looking absolutely adorable.
I’m engaged, a mum, a dog-mum too, and happiest when I’m outside in nature with my little family. This business means more to me than I can say — it’s not just about clothes, it’s about creating a life that allows me to be present with my daughter during these magical early years.
Thank you for being here, and for supporting this little dream of mine. Your orders truly help me stay home, do what I love, and spend precious time with the person I love most.
