A bit about Walter and May

As the blog is a new addition to Walter and May, I thought it would be nice to get you know you all a little better. And I thought I would start by introducing myself!

I’m Liz and I own Walter and May. Like many of you, I wear many hats and have a full time Corporate career in Professional Services, alongside running Walter and May. I’m also a wife to the lovely Baz Wright (aka the Transition guy) Baz Wright (@my_petrol_emotion) • Instagram photos and videos, in charge of renovating our gorgeous 400 year old Blacksmiths cottage, Auntie, God Mother and all round organiser. My friends favourite saying is ‘Liz do it’

Like you, I used to be a customer, when the lovely Beth who created W&M, shared that she was shifting her focus to her Art. I knew Walter and May was too special to let go, so on instinct, I messaged her to see if I could take over. A couple of weeks later, I was the proud owner of W&M. I like to joke that I bought a company on Instagram!

Walter & May is my passion project and my creative outlet. I do everything myself from sourcing gorgeous new products, to creating the boxes and images. More importantly, I pack every box myself and hand write your message for the personalised touch.

I also love that Walter and May is a female focussed brand. The boxes are designed with women in mind. Our products are sourced from small female owned British Brands. Who we buy from, is as important as what we buy. So, if you are a female owned company, we would love to see your products, so drop us a line to talk!

I’ve got some exciting plans on how to empower women through our boxes and to create moments of joy for more people. I want to make more of an impact in helping women succeed in all areas of their lives and take the time to celebrate their successes.

What would you like to see in our boxes going forward? What would you like to know more about?
