Hi guys Sophie here!
​
I started Signs by Sophie B way back now in May 2020 as I had moved out of my home with my parents at the end of January. When looking for items to decorate my own home I found nearly every shop was based in the US and the postage was so much! This led me to thinking if other people could do it why could I not just make my own?
​
I quickly converted a part of my dining room into a small desk and working area and haven't looked back since! Every item I design and make is something I would have in my own home (many of them are!) which helped me created my rustic farmhouse style items that I sell today
​
So thats how I thought of the shop, but there was obviously a reason I decided to choose magical inspired items for the core of the shop. To explain this decision I have to go waaaay further back in time to 1995...
My first trip to Disney was actually before I was even born and my mum was pregnant with me. My first trip was to Disneyland Paris before I was 1. In 1996 my mum started working in Florida 2 weeks a month and with the price of flights and tickets in the 90's me, my older brother and my Dad would often join her.
​
This is where my love of Disney grew. We met the most amazing family out there and they've become a second family to me. But despite that, my parents both own there own business and growing up we never got to have alot of family time so Florida and Walt Disney World became the place we had that. Im so so lucky to have grown up with so many incredible memories
As I grew up every year visiting the parks I wanted to help create the magic and memories that I had experienced. Luckily in 2016 my dream came true and I got to work in my favourite park Hollywood Studios!
​
My Summer college program intensified my love for all things Disney giving me experiences I never would have imaged and meeting friends I'd never forget!
​
I still try to go at least once a year visit my family there and explore the parks, if you ever see me there make sure you stop me and say Hi!
But thats what created my love of Disney and inspires my shop. I hope my items can help you recall little moments you may have with family and friends and bring a bit of magic into your homes.
​
All the support for my business never goes unnoticed and I wish I could thank you all in person. This is only the start of Signs by Sophie B and as Walt said 'It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.'
​
Thank you,
Sophie B
