🌟 From Boat to Business: How Our Family Fell in Love with 3D Printing
It all started in the later part of 2024 with a curious purchase: a 3D printer. My husband brought it home, and like any new gadget, we were excited—but we had no idea how much it would change our lives.
The first thing we printed was a tiny boat. Simple, right? But when our kids saw it emerge layer by layer, their eyes lit up with pure wonder. That moment sparked something in us—a feeling that we had to share this magic with the world. It wasn’t just about printing objects; it was about printing joy, creativity, and connection.
So we dove in.
We started printing game pieces and accessories, quirky garden decorations, clever little storage solutions, and all sorts of fun, functional items. Each print brought smiles, sparked ideas, and made us realise: this isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way to bring happiness to others.
We began sharing our creations on Instagram, and as of this week, we’ve taken the next big step—launching our very own online store!
🌍 From Our Home to Yours—and Beyond
This store is more than just a business—it’s a reflection of our family’s passion, creativity, and belief in the power of making. Every item we print is crafted with care, curiosity, and high-quality filament to ensure it’s not only beautiful but built to last. But more than that, it’s made with love—from our home to yours.
We’re genuinely excited about what lies ahead. Our vision is to grow beyond being a small shop in South Africa. We want to explore new industries, collaborate with creatives, and eventually expand our footprint across the African continent. We believe 3D printing can inspire innovation in education, design, gifting, and even manufacturing—and we’re here for it.
And here’s where you come in. Your feedback, ideas, and support mean everything to us. Whether you’re browsing, buying, or dreaming up something custom, we’d love to hear from you. You’re helping shape our journey, and we’re so grateful to have you along for the ride.
Let’s print something amazing together—and build a future full of creativity, connection, and community. 💛
