Discovering More New Brands – Part 2
We’re Florence and Lily, the sister duo behind Little Wrens Nest - a brand born from our love of beautifully designed children’s toys from around the world. Since 2020, we’ve been sharing Maileg’s charming Danish creations across the UK and beyond.
Now, we’re just as thrilled to introduce two of our newest brands, chosen with the same passion that first inspired us. We can’t wait to explore new worlds of Childhood Magic with you!
Moulin Roty
For over 50 years, Moulin Roty has been crafting beautifully designed toys and keepsakes that spark imagination and bring timeless charm to playtime. Founded in France in 1972, the brand began as a cooperative of artists and craftspeople, united by a shared vision of creating toys with heart, quality, and nostalgia.
Rooted in French artistry and a love for timeless play, each piece is thoughtfully designed to inspire adventure, comfort, and wonder in children’s everyday lives. From soft cuddly companions to whimsical wooden toys, every creation reflects a commitment to quality, safety, and enchanting childhood memories.
Why did we choose to stock Moulin Roty?
At Little Wrens Nest, we carefully select the brands we stock, ensuring they align with our love for beautifully crafted, high-quality toys. Moulin Roty stood out to us for so many reasons, making it a perfect addition to our collection.
One of the things we love most about Moulin Roty is its unique and eclectic style. Their designs have a distinctive charm that feels both playful and artistic, making their toys unlike anything else. Each collection has its own personality, ensuring there’s truly something for everyone - whether you’re drawn to the nostalgia of their vintage-inspired pieces or the whimsical storytelling behind their character sets.
Another reason we chose Moulin Roty is the incredible variety of materials and textures used across their range. From soft, plush fabrics to beautifully detailed wooden toys, they bring a richness to playtime that appeals to both children and collectors alike.
Lastly, we were impressed by the high quality at a reasonable price. Moulin Roty offers thoughtfully designed toys that are built to last, making them wonderful keepsakes that can be cherished for years.
We’re so excited to share this magical brand with you!

Mifkins
Mifkins is a UK-based brand creating fun, beautiful, and inclusive stationery, designed with sustainability in mind. The name ‘Mifkins’ comes from a childhood nickname given by the founder’s grandparents - first to her, then to her little ones. Now, it’s their word for all kids!
Their luxury greeting cards and gift wrap are made in small batches in the UK, using FSC-certified, uncoated cardstock that’s fully recyclable. Every sturdy 300gsm card is paired with a recyclable kraft envelope.
Why did we choose to stock Mifkins?
We’re so excited to introduce Mifkins to our collection! As a UK-based brand, Mifkins creates beautifully designed greeting cards that bring joy to every occasion. Their cards aren’t just visually stunning - they have a storytelling element that makes them feel extra special.
One of the reasons we love Mifkins is their commitment to sustainability. Every card is made in small batches right here in the UK, using high-quality, fully recyclable cardstock. Each one is paired with a recyclable kraft envelope, ensuring your heartfelt messages are as kind to the planet as they are to your loved ones.
As a small business ourselves, we love championing fellow UK-based independents, and Mifkins is a perfect fit. With their carefully crafted designs and premium materials, their cards capture the magic of childhood and make gifting even more meaningful.
Whether it’s for a birthday, a new arrival, or just because, Mifkins cards add that extra touch of warmth and personality to any message.
