Monsters and Co. was created in 2018 to provide fun products for humans and their little monsters. This little business started in my living room when I dug out my old sewing machine to make little accessories for my three cats. This hobby and obsession led to the brand you know now!​

​

Being a graduate with a fashion design degree, I understand how much waste the fashion industry can create. So when creating Monsters and Co., it was very important to me to keep our wastes at a minimum. Every single accessory I make is made with eco-friendly fabrics and none of it goes to waste. Even the packaging is 100% recyclable! Saving the Earth never looked so good! 🌏

​

I loved my schnauzers, Bobo and Mui Mui, and have always groomed them myself when I had the chance...but I never really studied it. So in 2020 I took the plunge to train as a dog groomer! During my training with Dog's Delight London, I learned the skill of hand stripping and having schnauzers myself, I really wish I learned about it earlier. I fell in love with the art of it and oddly...I find the process very relaxing and satisfying! I gained my level 2 and 3 city and guilds qualifications in August of 2020 and have been grooming ever since - Best decision ever!

 

With the support and encouragement of my amazing friends, family, and mentors, I was able to open my own little salon in Muswell Hill, London in 2021. From there I was able to continue my dog grooming journey while also being able to sell my accessories both in store and online! In the same year we also welcomed our most recognisable monster, Mushu!

 

Unfortunately, in 2024, I had to step back from my dream job due to health complications. However, I still have so many ideas to bring to life for Monsters and Co. and I can't wait to share it with you all! Keep your eyes out for something new and exciting!

From one animal lover to another, thank you so sooo much for stopping by!
