‘When I was designing the Create Your Own A Little charms, I had set occasions in mind that different charms would suit, but my favourite thing about our Create Your Own A Littles and these charms is they can be interpreted in different ways, depending on what personally resonates with the individual. For example, when I was designing the moon charm, I thought this could represent sentiments such as ‘shoot for the moon’ or ‘the sky’s the limit’ but it's lovely to see it being associated with so many other meanings like ‘love you to the moon and back’ and ‘dream big’.

This sweet little charm will make the most paw-fect gift for someone with a furry friend. By adding it to an A Little bracelet for your loved one, they’ll be able to wear it on their stack as a beautiful reminder of the unconditional love they have for their loyal companion. You could even go a step further with personalisation and add the first initial of their pet’s name too!

The butterfly charm is a reminder to believe in the power of change and trust that we can become the best versions of ourselves. If your loved one is about to embark upon a new chapter, is seeking redirection, or lacks confidence in the next step of their journey, this charm is the perfect thing to inspire them to spread their wings and reach their dreams.

The wishbone is a well-established symbol of good luck. Whether you're wishing them the best in their new job or bon voyage as they head on a new adventure, by gifting an A Little Bracelet with this charm on it, you’ll be showering your loved one with all the luck in the world– whether that be a significant other, a best friend, or a sibling. The wishbone also acts as a reminder in troubled times that we make our own luck and can weather any storm.

The tree of life represents many things. Some see it as a symbol of vitality, hope and harmony, making it the perfect all-rounder charm for your loved one to wear and cherish forever. It also represents the love and interconnectedness between family, with its stretching branches and deep roots. With this in mind, why not gift to a special family member such as your mum, sister, or daughter?

CREATE YOUR OWN SILVER-PLATED BRACELET

A symbol of hope, good luck, and dreams coming true, this magical silver-plated shooting star charm is the perfect addition to any little one’s wrist stack – from your granddaughter to your niece. It can grow with them, guide them, and help them shine bright in everything they do.

This sweet charm features two hearts – one big and one small – making it the perfect symbol of love and connection between a parent and child. Birthday, new chapter or ‘just because’, it’s a timeless addition to your little one’s collection and a lasting reminder that you’ll be by their side every step of their journey.
