About Us

Hi tinker tribe,

I'm Emma, founder and designer at tiny tinker.

The idea for this little venture came about in early 2017. I'd recently returned from maternity leave to my role as a clinical dietitian. I felt on top of the world, loving the balance between mum life and work life. I felt happy, and confident, and decided to have some fun and create something that could blend all my worlds together. And so came about the food earrings!

At first I just created earrings for myself to wear to work. Isla would giggle in the mornings when she discovered which designs I'd chosen, and my patients would do a double take and then a big smile when they realised that they WERE in fact big pea pods on my ears. And wearing them made me happy too, it still does.

Fast forward a few years and I now have another beautiful daughter, Fern.  I'm also supported by my amazing husband, Aidan, who does much of the packing and mail runs. Life has changed in many ways but at it's core is the same. At tiny tinker we are still here creating our earrings to spread smiles and it really humbles and truly amazes us at just how many earrings we have sent across our beautiful country.

So thank you for stopping by and thank you for the support, it means the world.

Emma xx
