Beautifully Handcrafted was born from a deep love for Cornwall—its breathtaking landscapes, its mystical light, and the ever-changing beauty of the sea. Our signature scent, Cornish Sea Breeze, was created to capture that essence—the fresh, invigorating air that makes Cornwall so special.

But life has a way of shifting perspectives. When tragedy struck, everything changed.

Liz, our co-founder, faced sudden organ failure, and our world was turned upside down. Ian, her husband and co-founder, became her rock, caring for her through the darkest days, balancing hope with the reality of an uncertain future. It was during this time that we realised something deeply profound:

It’s the little things, the smallest details of our lives, that truly matter.

When I faced death, it wasn’t the big things I thought about. It was the gentle breeze on my face. The touch of a stranger’s kindness. The moments we often take for granted.

Liz had always been a registered organ donor, never imagining she would one day need a transplant herself. But the selfless decision of a grieving family, choosing to donate their loved one's organs, gave her the gift of life.

Doctors told her she was just two hours away from total organ failure when she received a new liver. Recovery has been long and complex, and it continues to this day. Through it all, Ian has been there, offering unwavering love and support, even when the road ahead seemed impossible.
