About Helios Store…
We are so excited to launch Helios Store and finally share what we have been working on -to bring bold designs to you and introduce products that are perfect for gifting and also treats for yourself!
We thought it was a good time to share a bit more about us and our vision for our small business.
We are sisters based on the South Coast of the UK. Charlotte is our owner and developed the idea for Helios Store based on her love of aesthetic functional design with a colourful twist. The name Helios was inspired by Charlotte’s many trips to Greece, and a vision for bright and cheerful products. As the Greek God synonymous with the Sun, Helios is a perfect name for our store.
Rhodes, Greece.
Melissa is our creative consultant and is an established illustrator who has been running her own small business for 6 years and brings a wealth of experience. She loves nothing more than to shop so this was a perfect project for her. Part of the challenge for both of us is going to be not keeping many of the products for ourselves!
How is our store curated?
We have sourced amazing products from independent businesses and makers that reflect our vision for high-quality and design led pieces. We have started with a selection of products we think you’ll love. Our plan is to regularly introduce new items and ensure a rotation of stock to maximise our offering and share fresh finds.
We are always on the lookout for unique items so if you’re reading this as a maker and feel your products would be a good fit, then do get in touch!
We stock preloved goods…
We are both fans of looking out for unique vintage and preloved items that we can give a second life to. It’s also part of our broader commitment to sustainability and rescuing items from landfill. We also love that we can shop locally for these products and identify pieces that are on trend and reflect the aesthetic of our brand. These are one-offs, so if you see something you like then be quick! Once it’s gone it’s gone….
What’s coming Next…
We’re off to our first trade show tomorrow to source products for Autumn and Christmas and we hope to find an exciting range of goods to share with you, as well as connecting with other small and independent businesses.
New stock will be arriving so we plan to get this on our store as soon as possible. We will continue to champion joyful design and look forward to the next few months of growing our business and challenging ourselves.
Thank you for reading and we hope you soon find something you love! Please connect with us on social media and follow along on our exciting new journey.
