Orkney A6 photo greeting card – Kame of Hoy and Distant Highlands

Welcome to Handmade in Hope.  I’m AJ, part-time psychotherapist and part-time hand-weaver, and all my products are hand-made on one of my two table looms, one in the sunroom in my garden, and one (traditionally for cottage industries!) in the attic.

Everything I sell is unique, a one-off, and I hope will please with both its looks and its quality. Hand-made products are slightly irregular, and will not be as “perfect” as a machine-made equivalent; but if you’re looking at my store, you likely know that already!  I also recommend only hand-washing hand-woven clothing items.

Everything listed in the store here is available and ready to ship.  I do also work to commission, so if you see something you like on my website, www.handmadeinhope.co.uk, that isn’t available here, please get in touch and I may be able to make you something to order. (For commissions, please assume a lead time of approx. 1 month, to allow me to plan and complete the work; though if I can do it sooner, I will).

Please note that shipping from the islands is always potentially subject to weather-related delays, and I cannot guarantee delivery by a particular date. I will use a tracked service, usually Royal Mail, and provide tracking details for you to monitor your shipment.

I hope you enjoy browsing!
