I am incredibly thankful to John Lewis for the opportunity to showcase my small business, The Cornish Surfer, through their in-store pop-up shop initiative with Popup Indie. This week has been nothing short of amazing, with an overwhelming response to the quality of my products—feedback that fills me with pride and gives me the boost every small business owner needs!

To all my wonderful new customers: thank you for choosing to support a small, British-made business.

As many of you know, all my designs are lovingly created in Cornwall, from the comfort of my loft studio overlooking the ocean. This panoramic view of the sea is my constant source of inspiration, where I watch the waves roll in, breathe in the salty air, and dream up the designs and color palettes that define The Cornish Surfer.

At the heart of my business ethos is a commitment to sustainability and ethical production. I strive to partner with factories as close to home as possible and use materials that are kind to the planet, keeping my carbon footprint to a minimum.

A huge thank you to those of you who choose to shop local, shop small, and shop British-made. Seeing my sales at John Lewis reflect your support reassures me that I must be doing something right!

Looking ahead, I’m excited to share that I plan to host more pop-ups with John Lewis in 2025, bringing The Cornish Surfer to coastal towns across the UK. Keep following me for updates—hopefully, I’ll be coming to a town near you soon!

Lastly, please don’t forget to leave me a Google review. This is one of the best ways for me to grow my online presence and continue creating products you love. Click on the link ‘google review’. Your feedback truly means the world to me!

Your support is everything.

Our Journey to John Lewis

For those who are not familiar with our story, we decided to leave our busy and hectic city lives for calmer seas, wide-open spaces, salty sea air, and a slower pace of life to start a family. This transition grounded us, allowing us to reset the clocks, breathe, and begin a new journey filled with passion and a creative drive that had been itching to get out. Positioned in a small fishing village on the coast, The Cornish Surfer was born.

Building a new brand comes with never-ending challenges, but they are mine to own, and I am free to be as creative as I like. That’s a win for me.

Being accepted by John Lewis and The Great Brand Exchange provides me with the opportunity to connect with new customers so that I can share my love of fabrics and design and the story behind the brand. Exciting times!

Join Us at John Lewis!

We invite you all to come and experience our pop-up shop at John Lewis. It’s more than just a retail space; it’s a celebration of our journey, our values, and the incredible community that has supported us every step of the way. Follow us on social media for updates, behind-the-scenes peeks, and special announcements as we prepare for this exciting event.

Thank you for being part of our story. We couldn’t have done it without you, and we look forward to sharing this new chapter with all of you.
