So… you want to know what’s best thing about IDC? Everything in this photo (and in store of course!) is lovingly handmade by Bristol artists! Thought, time, care, energy and effort has gone into each piece and it really shows in the quality and uniqueness in everything. We love opening our doors every day (except Mondays of course 🤭), stepping in and being surrounded by so much creativity. #smallbusinesslife #bristolgiftshop #handmadewithlove #bedminster #bs3shopping #bedminsterbid #sustainablejewellery #slowfashion #bathsalts #musclesoakbath #shampoobars #steampunkfashion #hotairballoons #recycledjewellery #ceramicsofinstagram #bristolcreativea #independentshop #indiegiftshop #independentdesigncollective #brassearrings #artprint #digitalart #shopfloorgoals #handmadewithlove #womeninbusiness #bristol247 #bristolnorthstreet #northstreetshopping

Reflecting on @tuttonandyoung's Made Brighton, with @heatherrajaratnam_jewellery, feeling truly inspired after spending 4 days surrounded by creative people who are so dedicated to their craft. They're the CEO, the finance manager, the maker, the cleaner, the marketer, the boss AND the assistant. I've come away feeling inspired, humbled, and full of gratitude for the example they set for anyone who wants to make a living on their own terms. Myself included. My life's mission is simple: To be creative every day, helping nurture other creatives to achieve their potential, fuelling a perpetual cycle of inspiration, innovation, and imagination. If you need help with your copywriting, whether that's in the form of blogs, newsletters, website descriptions, collection blurbs, about me sections, or anything else I can weave with words, let's chat.

We got these beautiful porcelain necklaces from @scarabpots this morning, and they remind me of tiles that have been weathered at sea for years. They're a statement piece, at the same time tactile and delicate. New stock means a fun reshuffling around of the shelves! This keeps the shop fresh for our customers, showcasing the artists and our space, highlighting what IDC is about. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #bristol247 #bristolartists #bristollocal #bristolsmallbusiness #smallbiz100 #ceramicjewellery #porcelain #porcelainanniversary #jewellery #bs3shopping #shoplocalchristmas #shoplocalbristol #northstreetbs3 #northstreetshopping #independentdesigncollective #handmadegifts #handmadejewelry #facecream #handcream #shoplocalbristol #shopcorners #freshstock

Hi Everyone! This is us ; Independent Design Collective. ✨ A women run/owned business, that sells handmade products created by over 40 Bristol artists, who have spent years refining their craft and finding their artistic voice. IDC humbly started up 6 years ago, and since then has grown to become an established part of the local community. This year we've been selected as a Small Biz 100 for 2023, started a website, and seen our collection of artists grow! But without you it wouldn't be possible! So we'd love to encourage you to shop small and local this Christmas (and all times of year of course ☺️). . It's no joke that every purchase made in a local shop makes our day, and does in fact lead to happy dances. We also love to see your faces and are always happy to help in any way we can ; custom orders, gift ideas, etc - so don't be afraid to ask! . . . . . . . . . . . #shoplocal #bristol247 #bristolartists #bristollocal #bristolsmallbiz #smallbiz100 #shoplocalchristmas #handmadegifts #handmadejewelry #femaleledbusiness #independentdesigncollective #northstreetbs3 #northstreetshopping #giftsforher #giftsforhim #giftsforthem #bristolsmallbusiness #bs3shopping #northstreetbs3 #chrismaspresent #earlychristmasshopping

It's #ShopIndieDay ! Here's a collection of my wonderful independent stockists, in the past two weeks I have dropped off stock to all of them (only @betterfoodco is missing, soon to have full shelves!) so you can find a range of warmliis in all these shops. And you'll not just support my small business, but also keep these indies going. Oh how boring would it be, if we were left with only big chain stores... . . . #shopindieday #shopindie #priorshopbristol #betterfoodco #phatandco #blazeshopbristol #independentdesigncollective #moliistudio #thewhygallery #shopsmall #buylocal #shopindependent #christmasgift #giftingseason

Hello!! Thought I’d post a picture of myself for a change. I’m Gemma and this was me last year at the @southbristolartstrail I was privileged to be based in the most beautiful shop @independentdesigncollective (definitely check it out if you’re in Bristol). I’m doing the @totterdownarttrail this year 18-19 November, and will be selling cards, prints, original paintings and other crafty shenanigans, perfect for some early Christmas shopping. If you’d like me to create a personalised illustration for someone as a Christmas present or for any other occasion, why not beat the rush and order now. Prices start from just £20, link in my bio or message for more details. #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocal #independentdesigncollective #beanygemsillustration #localartist #bristolartist #bristoletsy #bristoletsyteam #mumlife #mumlifeuk #wallart #christmasgiftideas #watercolourartist

Here at @independentdesigncollective we like to go above and beyond for our customers and one way we've been doing that recently is by ordering bespoke items from our artists. 💥 Last week I ordered 2 age cards (18 & 21) from @hollyflowers.applique and also an A2 size print of the gorgeous Bridge and Balloons by @carla_james_artist 💥 @paperheartproductions also is happy to produce unique pieces for our customers and regularly makes mega jelly cards 🙂 💥 Recently we also had a couple of requests for different coloured pompom earrings. @sc_knits happily made a white pair (perfect for Xmas) and a triple drop tonal green pair. 💥 If you've seen anything in the shop and you like it in a different size or colour or something else please let us know and we'll always do our best to accommodate your request. . .

Let's talk self-care.. 😌 'I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread' There's no denying that adult life means there's always something going on ; work stresses, parenthood, others relying on you, trying to keep up with the never ending to do list and also trying to find time for yourself amongst it all. 🌱 This is your gentle reminder that it's more than ok to have a moment just for you! Do some journaling to process thoughts, light a candle while taking a bath, close your eyes and be present. 🌿 What's your favourite self care routine? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

After a complete reset, I'm back in the shop early, to open up (and to check that we weren't broken into over night)! Yes the reset involved plenty of comfort food 🍕🍕🍕 . Yesterday I had to pay for an invoice I wasn't prepared for or had the cash flow for, but when you're a small business owner these costs have to come straight out of my pocket 😔 .

Let's take a moment to appreciate all the teachers out there - Who work incredibly hard and make a big difference, inspiring little ones (and keeping them from causing chaos on a daily basis) Let them know you think they're great!!

* These pieces now available.* I swapped out some of the pieces @independentdesigncollective for some of the newer, brighter ones, so I’ll list these pieces at a discounted price, along with some of my new pieces, on Friday 23rd July. I’m going to add some of the smaller, lower-priced, items, such as tiny bowls and paperweight pebbles. I don’t have as many of these, so there will just be two shop updates: 9am BST (GMT +1) and 9pm BST (GMT +1). If you happen to make a purchase in each update, I’ll refund the excess shipping costs. #claylove #instapottery #paperclay #porcelainpaperclay #texture #handmade #ceramic #porcelain #tinybowl #smallbusiness #bristolbusiness #independentdesigncollective

New pieces dropped off to Chitra @independentdesigncollective in Bristol. Well worth a look if you’re in the area, such a beautiful variety of work from local artists. And if you’re not so local, but UK based, Chitra has been working hard to set up the website for online shopping, which is going live soon! (UK delivery only.) I’ll let you know when the website goes live, but it’s worth following @independentdesigncollective anyway! #claylove #instapottery #paperclay #porcelainpaperclay #texture #handmade #ceramic #porcelain #tinybowl #miniatureart #cremerging #howiamaco #colorcompanion #rainbow #colourful #joyful #summercolours #pebbles #paperweight #smallbusiness #bedminster #southville #handmadejewellery #porcelainbrooch #bristolbusiness #independentdesigncollective

Good Morning everyone! We hope you enjoyed the bank holiday weekend & made the most of the sunshine 😌🌞 ✨We'd like to introduce you to our June guest artist : @rmc_ceramics✨ Ros Mayne-Caudwell is a ceramicist and artist based in Westbury-On-Trym, specialising in functional pottery that prioritises both aesthetic appeal and ergonomic design. Working in small batches with a variety of stoneware and porcelain clays, she primarily throws her pieces on the pottery wheel, but also creates a selection of decorative objects using moulds designed and produced in-house. She'll be in the shop every Saturday with her gorgeous ceramics.

Amphora Aromatics founders, Christine and Peter Carroll, travelled the world & spent time in a Himalayan hill town, studying native traditional medicine systems & associated philosophy. On their return, they set up Amphora Aromatics - taking inspiration from their travels overland through Europe, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, and Afghanistan to India. We have an amazing selection of their products in store. The products range from £5.50 -£15, making them affordable and they all smell incredible.

Hi I’m Aura, I take this opportunity to introduce myself and LOKAL to everyone who has been following our journey as well as all the new followers. I have been living in Brussels for 7 years, recently became belgian 🥳 and I feel that I have a heartbeat for this city ! Three years ago, with the arrival of covid, I decided to go down a professional path that I felt very enthusiastic about, it was something very spontaneous, like when you start to be more aware of your own lifestyle and want to share it with others. In my case I turned this new lifestyle into a business venture 🏄🏽‍♀️ Like many of the expatriates who come to this city, the first months you look for places where you can find the products or experiences to which we are already accustomed. The search for clothes has always been exciting for me, I found in Belgian a lot of everything, vintage houses with varied prices and qualities, known designers with various stores but not a space dedicated to young projects, however on the internet there were many, every time I found one of my favorite appeared many similar ones. Lokal born with the focus of sustainably and fairly produced clothing, jewelery and home accessories from Belgian brands and designers in order to give them more visibility. A cozy living room atmosphere with great attention to detail. And not just about the sale. Workshops where knowledge can be passed on to end users. I recently had an interview for a project in Germany @styleandthegang that made me look back and rethink the momment I decided to start Lokal, there have been some difficult momments but I would say yes ! again and again to Lokal :) I share the article that inspired this post in our Bio & stores ! . . @tiffanysalesphotography . . . . . #lokalconceptstore #enterprenuershiplifestyle #conciousmind #lovelystoryconcept #brusselsstories #independentwoman #storytelling #brusselsbusiness #independentdesigncollective #designerscommunity #locallycreated #newcollectionsavailable #newdesignersinstore #sustainability #sustainablefashion #independentdesigners #sustainabledesigners #createdinbelgium #morethanastore #slowfashionstore #ethicalfashion

✨ Day 7 : Learn ✨ @joannehawker ✨ Day 8 : Finishing Touches ✨ ✨ Day 9 : Trial & Error ✨ We are running a bit behind on #marchmeetthemaker2023 so I thought I'd try and cover 3 days in one post!😅 (Please bear with me) Learn: Opening and running your own shop when you've never done it before is definitely challenging to say the least, but that said I've loved everyday. The image I've shared for this prompt is me learning how to build a new e-commerce website.... eeek!! Wish me luck 🤞 Finishing Touches: The shop display is constantly evolving due to the different artists we have in the shop and therefore we are always adjusting the display, tweaking things and making improvements on the shop. The images I have shown for this prompt is my first shop sign from 2017 and my new improved sign from 2020 Trial & Error: I feel life is basically trial and error 😃 so when it comes to the shop I do the same thing. Try something see if it works, if it does great, if not try something else. We tried several different things in the shop, from workshops, window displays, volunteers working in the shop and opening 6 days a week. The images I've shared for this prompt is when we used to rent out shelves instead of charging a commission. . . . #meetthemakerday789 #meetthemaker #meetthemaker2023 #bristolcraftspeople #bristolindependents #bristolindies #northstreetbs3 #southville #bedminstershopping #bedminsterbid #bs3shopping #bs247 #independentdesigncollective #giftshop #trial&error #learn #finishingtouches #womeninbusiness #womensupportingwomen #femalefounder #northstreetbristol

Hello everyone! We're joining the #meetthemaker challenge this year (few days late but that's ok!) ✨ Day 1 : Brand Origin ✨ @joannehawker We thought we'd share with you the start of IDC I moved to Bristol in 2013 and started selling my jewellery at the local markets. I got to know a lot of the makers and wanted to open a shop promoting local artists. I have always wanted a shop of my own so when this opportunity came up I jumped at the chance. The logo was designed by one of my husband's friends. I'd sent him a few designs I liked the look of and told him the name and this was my favourite out of the 4 choices. I chose the final colours after spending hours in B&Q's paint section. We opened our doors just in time for upfest 2017, which was at the end of July.  We only started with a handful of makers, but as word spread about our shop, we started to be approached by artists who wanted to sell with us. We now have over 40 local artists selling with us and we are updating our collections all the time! We have now been open for nearly 6 years (July 2023) and we are going from strength to strength. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #meetthemaker #meetthemakerday1 #meethemaker2023 #bristolcraftspeople #originstory #independentdesigncollective #indieshop #bs3 #bs3shopping #brandinginspiration #brandidentity #businessownerlife #bedminstershopping #womeninbusiness #bs247 #independentartists #femalefounder #shopfront #shopbeginnings #bristolindependents #creativeentrepreneur #bristolgiftshop

Pop down to my pop-up before 5:30pm to catch me with some of my Bristol cards, prints, gifts and home wares.

If you're looking for a present for your lovely Bristol Mum for Mother's Day or beyond I've put together a few of my products here to solve your gift dilemmas. With Bristol coasters, tea towels, enamel mugs and prints there are lots of options to make it a really Bristol day and I'll even have Bristol wrapping paper with me too! You can buy everything online from my website but what's even better is you can find them with me in person every Saturday in March at my pop-up stall at Independent Design Collective in Bedminster. The joy of this is if I haven't got what you were looking for this Saturday just let me know and I can bring it along next Saturday or even the one after. You'll still be in time for the big day! I hope this gives you a few ideas and please do come along on Saturday from 10:30am to 5pm to see everything in the flesh. Hope to see you then, dona B 😁 #donabdrawings #bristolgift #bristolpresent #bristolmum #mothersday #bristolshopping #visitbristol #bristolpopup #independentdesigncollective #bedminsterpopup #bristolteatowel #bristolart #bristolcoaster #bristolmug #bristolcamping #bristoldecor #bristolhomewares

Mother's day is coming round and we've been thinking about all the special women in our lives. Mothers are strong and resilient. They're protective and sensitive. They're beautiful and unique. Take some time this year to appreciate the wonderful women that raised us 🙏 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #womensupportingwomen #mothersdaygiftsideas #mothersdaygift #mamabear #mamabearcard #bearnecklace #silverjewellery #mugsofinstagram #ceramicsofinstagram #bs3shopping #bs3 #shopbristol #shopsmalluk #shopindie #northstreetbristol #bedminsterbid #bedminstershopping #independentdesigncollective #independentartist #bearart #bearart #printgift #walldecor #handmademug

Do you struggle to fall asleep sometimes? Or have a hard time to relax after a busy day at work? With the days getting shorter some people's body clocks take a little time to adjust. The sweet smell of these hand-knitted eye pillows by @sc_knits can help you ground yourself and ease into the evening. They are filled with flaxseeds, essential oils and locally grown lavender or chamomile flowers and you can also gently heat them up for extra comfort. . . . #meditation #eyepillow #sleepytime #relax #selfcare #wellbeing #grounding #autumn #seasonchange #handknitted #knittinginspiration #knitters #shibori #bs3shopping #bs3bristol #northstreetshopping #northstreetbristol #bedminsterbristol #shoplocal #buysmall #independentdesigncollective #supportsmallbusiness
