We Are Scamp

It’s a family affair at Scamp - sisters Stacey and Jennifer established the business and design everything in their range. Jennifer is also one of our Homeworks team, working very hard behind the scenes organising this year’s events.
The business began in 2010 making personalised pictures for baby gifts and has grown to include screen printed baby wear, nursery accessories and personalised gifts for funky girls and boys.
Creating wooden products to complement the existing range has been a strong new focus.
They’re Homeworks regulars and will be at our Christmas Bazaar on both Sunday 6 & 13 December this year. Come along and find perfect personalised gifts for all the little ones on your Christmas list:
