Anna Makes started the way most good things do. Out of a personal need. As a mum, I know how much thought goes into planning a celebration for your little one. You want it to feel special. You want the decorations to be beautiful. But you also have a budget, a full-time job, and approximately zero spare hours in the week.
By day I work from home as an Executive Assistant for a Wellington based accounting firm. I'm pretty good at keeping things organised, being detail-oriented, and getting things done. That same energy goes into every template I design.
Design is my escape. After the school run, after dinner, after the day is done, I sit down and create. It started as a hobby and quietly turned into something I genuinely love sharing with other families.
Everything I make is built to be customisable and affordable. I don't think beautiful party packs should cost a fortune, and I don't think you should need a design degree to personalise them. Download, edit the text, print at home or at your local copy shop. Done.
If something I've made has helped make your child's birthday a little more magical, that's the whole reason I do this.
