About us

Faced with the problem of trying to find tasteful nursery bedding and interiors whilst pregnant with her first child, Katie stumbled upon an unexpected solution: her grandmother's old sewing machine.  With an armful of fabric and a head full of ideas, Katie set about designing and hand stitching items to create a beautiful and bespoke nursery.  The finishing touch, created by a hand drawn Little Swan, influenced by memories of fairy tale characters from her childhood, was framed to hang above the cot to watch over her precious little prince or princess.

.

.

Her Little Prince, Harry Crabb, arrived and inspired Katie to transform her hand drawn image into a hand painted version to be printed onto exquisite linen fabric; and so The Crabbkins Little Swan collection was born.

.

.

A Little Princess, Millicent Crabb, soon followed, completing the family and allowing Katie to add to her collection by designing a range of beautiful new born clothing all featuring the original Little Swan.

As Harry and Millicent grow so does Crabbkins.  We have now designed a range of beautiful and unique wall decor for both nursery and children's rooms.
