The Tiodhlac Digest: Creating, Sustaining, and Gifting Thoughtfully
At Tìodhlac Studio, everything we do is inspired by our love of creativity, connection, and conscious gifting. Our name, Tìodhlac, is the Scottish Gaelic word for 'gift'-both a reflection of our heritage and our belief in celebrating life's big and little moments.
What started as a passion project from home grew into something much more. We are still on our journey, learning and growing, building a brand shaped by the values of sustainability, craftsmanship, and inclusivity. While ambitious goals lie ahead, we're committed to growing with purpose, creativity, and care-and we're so proud to share this journey with you.
A Mother-Daughter Business with Heart
Hi. We're Christine and Aimee, a mum-daughter duo, and we're behind Tìodhlac Studio. This was actually originally a venture between the two of us that kind of really helped us work our way through getting diagnosed with ADHD. The creating, the making, the finding of new ideas has just been such a big part of ourselves, and the studio gives us the perfect outlet for this passion.
The first foray into small business with Pop's Crafty Creations was our first joint venture. Aimee, now 11 years old, had an enormous say in shaping it, and it is still our signature product range here at Tìodhlac Studio. From hand-poured soy wax melts to exquisitely made home fragrances, Pop's Crafty Creations is really where our love for handmade gifting began.
Aimee continues being the creative life of our business. She has a fantastic nose that carefully chooses and tests fragrances for our home fragrance collection. She's also growing a passion for social media trends that help us in creating content that really resonates with our audience. And when it comes to trade fairs and markets, she's our main seller-her enthusiasm, friendly jabber, and natural sales pitch make her the perfect person to introduce customers to our collection.
Thoughtfully Curated, Sustainably Sourced
At Tìodhlac Studio, we curate with care products from local artisans, eco-conscious brands, and small independent businesses. Each item in our collection is individually sourced, researched, and tested to ensure it meets our high standards for quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship.
We work where possible with Scottish and UK artisans to bring unique, high-quality gifts. Handcrafted wellness essentials, bespoke treasures, and scented home fragrances are a few of our carefully curated treasures that spark joy and ignite deeper connections.
Sustainability & Transparency
Sustainability pushes us, but honesty is one of the core values we hold on to. As much as many of our products are eco-friendly, handmade, or ethically sourced, we do realize that there's always room for improvement. Where a product is not 100% sustainable yet, we promise to be honest about it.
We minimize our waste by using recyclable, biodegradable, and minimal packaging whenever possible. We also reuse and upcycle shipping boxes when we can-so don't be alarmed if your order arrives in a previously loved box! Some of our suppliers still use protective materials that we'd rather they didn't, but we're always working on more sustainable solutions.
Looking Ahead: Growing with Purpose
For us, this is not business, but labour of love-from midnight product discovery to early morning market stalls. This journey, driven by passion at every turn.
We look forward to continuing our work with other like-minded artisans and eco-conscious vendors, hoping to continue to show through our product offerings the beauty, responsibility, and sustainability of life. It is our most ardent hope that every gift you find here at Tìodhlac Studio brings a spark of as much joy to you as it does to us.
Thank you for being part of our journey. We can't wait to share what's next!!
