OUR STORY

 

Based in the UK, on the South coast we are Mimi and James, the wife and husband team behind MiMi Adores. Together we have 2 sweetheart boys - Reuben and Joshua.

It is our absolute joy to create your custom hand and footprint art! When we started this MiMi Adores journey, we couldn’t have imagined the beautiful time we now find ourselves in. 

5 years ago James and I got very sick at the same time, and found our lives turned completely upside down. We both had to leave the day jobs that we loved, as our bodies battled a number of debilitating co-infections. We found ourselves taking one day at a time, experiencing our loss and sadness but also focusing on the beauty still present in the everyday moments, especially with our gorgeous little ones. 

We found so much comfort here, and with James’ artistic talent, together we began to dream of creating an art business to create keepsakes that would bring comfort and joy and help us forever remember the magical beauty in the everyday moments with our little ones.

Our adventure began with us doing Pop Up events at Play Cafe’s in the South coast of England where we would take little ones hand and footprints and then take these gorgeous memories and create them into works of art to be displayed and cherished in homes. We had the privilege of taking over 1000 little one’s hand and footprints! 

We soon began to expand and with the return of our health we now have the joy and privilege of creating our hand and footprint art for people all around the world!

Our hope is always that the pieces of art that we create will help you see the beauty and wonder in the moment with your little ones, now but also when the moments have passed but are still so much a part of us.

Beauty not dulled by time but blossoming evermore with it! 

With our love,

Mimi and James xx
