Meri Meri started life as a kitchen table business in 1985. Armed with scissors, pens and a pot of glitter, Founder Meredithe (who's childhood nickname was Meri Meri) started creating cards for local stationery stores in Los Angeles. The cards were a huge hit, and the business expanded to keep up with demand; first with a network of mums working from kitchen tables, next was a move into a dedicated Meri Meri studio. Today Meredithe overseas a team of 20 designers and artworkers at the Meri Meri studio in Cheltenham, creating a fabulous array of cards, social stationery, partyware and gifts.
Today's post is a look at a few of my favourite items from the collection ~ all centred around the fabulous world of baking.
