Little Beau & Co.

🖤🦕🤍🦖🤎
Hiya guys, 👋

I know I’ve been a little quiet on the grid recently, and I’m sorry for disappearing! I’m still not quite back to working at full capacity just yet — between the summer holidays, childcare, some much-needed time away, recharging and restocking after a VERY busy few months, I’m taking things a little slower for now. 🫶

But… I just HAD to share these! 🥹🦖

This little collection was inspired by my ever-vocal 2 year old, with the dinosaurs personalised to how he pronounces their names. 🥹 I just know these are the little things I’ll want to remember forever… so I thought, why not turn them into prints?!

And then I realised… wouldn’t it be so lovely to create these with YOUR little ones’ cutest words too? 🥹

Animals, vehicles, favourite toys, flowers… the possibilities are endless! 💭

I’d absolutely LOVE to build this range with you and hear all of those adorable pronunciations that you never want to forget. 🤎

I’ll be back to working as usual very soon, so bear with me while I soak up the last bit of summer and get everything ready behind the scenes. 🫶

But for now… tell me, what is the cutest thing your little one calls something? (And feel free to DM me if you’d like to be placed on my waiting list) 👀🥹

👋👋👋

Just a little check-in while we’re away… 👋☀️

Firstly… my sister absolutely nailed this picture! 😂🤦‍♀️🫶

After a few days of holiday chaos already, we’ve decided our son really is Bamm-Bamm: he’s been full-on from sunrise to bedtime, and we’re now half-jokingly wondering if, just like in The Flintstones, he was adopted into the family because we genuinely don’t know where he gets his energy from! 🤣

It’s definitely been more chaotic than restful, and I think I’ll be coming home more tired than when we left… but I wouldn’t change it for the world. These are the wonderfully mad memories that make family holidays so special. ❤️

Thank you for bearing with me if you’re waiting for a reply. I know I still have a few messages to get back to, but I’ll be back with my diary next week and will get back to everyone as soon as I can.

Yabba Dabba Doo… see you all next week! 🦕💛

⚠️Photo for attention (and a giggle…)😂
A little heads-up from me… 💛

It looks like the last batch of ink cartridges I received may not have been printing to my usual high standard 😩 While they print beautifully to begin with, it seems they aren’t always standing up to UV rays as well as they should (and let’s be honest, Mother Nature is certainly giving us all a run for our money isn’t she)🙃

Now, don’t get me wrong… pink is a gorgeous colour 🌸… but we definitely don’t want my prints deciding they’d rather become entirely pink! 😂

Unfortunately, there’s no way for me to know exactly which orders may have been affected, so I’m asking you lovely lot to keep an eye on your prints over the coming weeks and months.

Just to reassure you, it’s completely normal for prints to lose the tiniest bit of their vibrancy over a very, very long time (we’re talking years and years!). What isn’t normal is noticeable discolouration in a short space of time🤯!

If that does happen, please don’t be polite and keep quiet! ❤️ I genuinely want to know. My biggest priority is making sure you’re happy with your print, and I’d much rather replace it than have someone sat at home disappointed.

The ink cartridges have now been replaced (approximately 2/3 weeks ago), so any new prints shouldn’t have this issue. And although it’ll cost me in time and cardstock, I’m more than happy to reprint any affected orders. All I ask is that you send me a photo of the discolouration, and I’ll get it sorted for you as quickly as I can. 🥰

I’m so sorry if this affects you. 🙏 It’s completely out of my hands, and in 9 years of printing, I’ve honestly never come across anything like this before. Let’s hope it’s a one-and-done and doesn’t give me another hoop to jump through when running a small business. 😮‍💨💛

Apologies…
This is making sending proofs and replying to messages extra long-winded this morning!
🙃 Because I’ve really got time for this, haven’t I?! 😮‍💨😴🤯
Hopefully it’ll be back up and running on desktops again soon!! 🤞

I’ve put a pause on taking any new orders until I have worked through the backlog I currently have; I also need to concentrate on getting myself to the end of term too! 🙃

I have then decided to take a slower-paced summer and spend some much-needed quality time with my family, so I do not have a date when I will be re-opening again just yet. I apologise if this causes any inconvenience, but I hope you understand!
It’s my first closure of 2026! 😴

Little Beau Treats is still open and in full swing, but for now, I’ll focus on getting everything turned around in just 18 days time and then finally breathe once it’s all done!! 👀🤯

Thank you as always for making Little Beau & Co. continue to thrive and grow! 🫶

Love Shell xx

Can anyone make use of this first day of school keyring?
It was printed last year and after multiple attempts at contacting the lady who had ordered it to arrange collection, I could not get a reply!
Although it wasn’t paid for, I still would like to offer this to someone free of charge who has their own Darcie starting school in September! 🫶
First come, first served! Just can’t bear to throw it away (hence me keeping it waiting to be collected for a whole year!) 🤦‍♀️
Collection Butterwick or Fishtoft. 😘

Wowza…I hadn’t even got round to re-advertising these End of Year gifts, but after spending this evening replying to all enquiries and updating my order book, I’m slightly hyperventilating and trying to find a way of inventing another 3 days in a week to be able to get everything done!!!! 👀

I’m a broken record, but you all bloomin’ well blow me away!!

In all seriousness, I’ve decided that I will have to close my order books for ALL products next Friday until I can get everything caught up and school gifts 100% turned around in time! ⏳

I keep saying ‘yes’ to everything, but it’s taking me so much longer to get an order completed and then another five more are added on in its place - which obviously is AMAZING - but, I’m only one person, juggling teaching and getting myself to the end of term whilst also parenting two VERY strong-minded children too! 🤯
If I’m still standing in 3.5 weeks, even I’ll be amazed!! 😘

P.S. A small handful of the wooden pencil pots (£10) are finally due to be back in stock and with me on Wednesday…drop me a message to get your hands on them as I will not be ordering any more this year (and I actually mean it this time 😂🤦‍♀️)
