Hello, I'm the artist behind Echo Beach Designs!
I create colourful, hand-painted designs inspired by the coast, bringing a little joy into everyday life.
Each piece starts as a hand-painted design, created to feel colourful, characterful and full of life.
I’m so grateful to have customers from all over the world who have supported and collected my work.
Over the years, Echo Beach has grown far beyond what I imagined.
You’ll now find my work here on the website, on social media, at my beach hut at North Berwick Harbour, and at markets across the country.
My collection has expanded to include hand-painted ceramics, kitchen textiles and clothing, all featuring my original designs.
Creating these designs brings a sense of calm, and I hope that comes through in the pieces themselves.
I have won many awards for my work and the most notable was winning the Theo Paphitis Small Business Sunday a year into my business, Theo uses this to highlight successful small businesses across the UK and membership of #SBS allows you to attend his annual event in Birmingham, it’s a great opportunity to meet other small businesses and offers great networking opportunities. I’ve been lucky to attend it the last 3 years
Each piece starts as a hand-painted design, created to feel colourful, characterful and full of life.
I’m so grateful to have customers from all over the world who have supported and collected my work.
In 2025, I launched a fundraising initiative called “Love Your Jugs”, featuring hand-painted designs on my mini jugs and hanging decorations, celebrating and raising awareness in a light-hearted, positive way.
This year, I’ll also be launching a new tea towel as part of the collection, with the hope of raising even more.
Last year alone, this initiative raised £750, and I’m aiming to go even further this time.
Alongside this, thanks to your support, I’ve been able to raise funds for a number of charities, including:
£8,400 for DEC Ukraine
Nearly £30,000 for Cancer Research and other cancer charities
North Berwick Harbour Trust
The Lobster Hatchery
