A Journey of Transformation
and Cornwall’s Inspiration
Welcome to Beautifully Handcrafted, where each product reflects a journey of resilience, passion, and the beauty of Cornwall. Co-founders Ian and Liz Wells didn’t set out to start a business—they set out to transform their lives. Driven by a relentless pursuit of success, they faced a series of life-altering events that would ultimately lead them to Cornwall and a new way of living.
For Liz, a serious car accident served as a wake-up call, a moment to pause and rethink everything. Ian, deeply impacted by Liz’s experience, soon found himself confronting health challenges of his own. These events urged them to let go of a lifestyle that no longer served them, prompting a family move to Cornwall’s serene coast.
A Journey of Resilience,
Beauty
and Craftsmanship
Settling in South Cornwall, Ian rediscovered his passion for photography, capturing the natural beauty surrounding them. Meanwhile, Liz poured her creativity into crafting candles inspired by the Cornish landscape. Together, they transformed these experiences into Beautifully Handcrafted—a collection that combines Cornwall’s essence with their story of renewal.
At Beautifully Handcrafted, we’re inspired by traditional techniques and modern craftsmanship. Every item is created in small batches, handmade with care, and designed to evoke the peace and wonder of Cornwall. Liz and Ian invite you to experience their journey through thoughtfully crafted gifts that celebrate resilience, beauty, and a new way of life.
