Mollimoo
Introduce yourself…
I’m Tina Peacock and my shop is Mollimoo. I sell hand-sewn fabric buttons as well as brooches, knitted scarves and accessories. My buttons are made using thrifted vintage material as well as new fabric. I grew up by the sea in Cornwall and now reside in the beautiful Dorset countryside, though I can never be too far from the ocean! I’m a thirty-something stay at home mum to two gorgeous children and never have enough time to make!
How did it all start?
Last year I won tickets to a festival called Camp Bestival. There was a knitting tent there and I was so inspired by it all, that as soon as I got back home I got myself some needles and started knitting straight away. I hadn’t done it since I was about 9 years old and fell in love with it. Next came my fabric buttons as my interest in all things handmade grew and it went from there. I now have a massive stash of yarn, fabric and vintage buttons. I’m hooked!
Have you always sold online?
Up until now, my designs have only been for sale online. However, they are now for sale in a local ’shabby chic’ style shop as well.
