About Us

Our Story – How It All Began

Tiny Tide Designs was born from a simple yet powerful idea: every little life deserves a personalised touch that tells their story beautifully. What started as creative play with shapes, colours and names has grown into a full-fledged passion project turned business dedicated to bringing joy into nurseries, kids’ rooms and special moments. We craft pieces that don’t just decorate a space — they celebrate the people who live in it.

Our journey began on the sunny South African coast, where calm ocean vibes and a love for creativity inspired us to make things that feel warm, personal and timeless. From that first handcrafted sign to the growing range of bespoke décor we offer today, our heart has always stayed the same: making meaningful keepsakes for your family to treasure.

What Makes Us Special

At Tiny Tide Designs, every piece you see is:

  • Handmade with love — we don’t mass-produce anything. Each item is carefully crafted by hand from start to finish using premium materials.

  • Personalised just for you — your vision, your colours, your names, your memories. Whether it’s a nursery name sign or a milestone board, no two designs are exactly alike unless you want them to be.

  • Designed to tell a story — we aim for pieces that matter; décor that becomes part of your home’s personality and your family’s memories.

From dreamy wall art and custom name signs to milestone boards and keepsakes — every creation is made with thoughtful attention to detail, because the little things mean everything.

Our Creative Process

We blend creativity with craftsmanship. Each order goes through a personal design process where we:

  1. Chat with you about your ideas — colours, styles, wording and purpose.

  2. Design and create a unique layout tailored to your wishes.

  3. Hand-craft every piece using careful cutting, layering, painting and finishing techniques.

  4. Pack and dispatch with love — ready to bring joy to its new home.

Please allow 7–10 working days for crafting and dispatch, as everything is lovingly handmade just for you.

More Than Just Décor

Tiny Tide Designs exists to help you mark life’s sweetest moments — from welcoming a new baby to celebrating birthdays, room makeovers, special events, or thoughtful gifts that speak from the heart. Each item is more than décor; it’s a keepsake filled with meaning.
