February 25, 2022 by Connie Mabbott

Mother’s day is approaching fast, and we have the perfect solution for that special gift, guaranteed to make Sunday the 27th of March extra special this year!

Traditionally, Mothering Sunday was a day for children who had gone away for work to return home to visit their Mothers. Now, we mark this day to honour our Mothers, make time for them, take them out for lunch and treat them with flowers, chocolates and personal gifts to show our appreciation.

At Hawthorne & Heaney we work on many different personalised gifts, from tea towels and hankies, to silky pyjamas, dressing gowns and scarves. We offer a luxury personalisation service, which is a fantastic way to elevate your gifts and make them extra special! Our expert team of embroiderers will help guide you through your order to make sure we meet your expectations.

Hand Monogramming

Our in house luxury hand monogramming service looks stunning on items like silk pyjamas and shirts. We work to high standards so you are guaranteed a quality finish an all items.

Simple and subtle hand finishes are the perfect way to personalise pieces that just need small finishing touches.

Machine Embroidered Text

Our digital embroidery services offer much more variety of size and fonts to choose from. These look stunning on bath robes, pyjamas, wash bags and scarves, and can be embroidered monograms, names or even full sentences! Choose your mothers favourite quote, or song lyric for that wow factor that is something guaranteed to surprise them and be kept forever.

Why not personalise something personal, for example this matching tea towel and oven glove for a passionate baker or loving cook.

2020 has been a wierd year, for the past few years we have got into a rhythm that by the time about October comes, we will be doing a lot of monogramming and personalisation events. However this year, that didnt happen.

We could not just sit idly by though and not have an event, so we created one for ourselves. Along with a whole host of fabulous creators, we joined togather in the Service on Savile Row to create The Marketplace.

During last weekend, Hawthorne & Heaney set up camp in London’s Selfridges store for a monogramming event for Australian Hat brand ‘Lack of Color’.

‘Lack Of Color is the popular Australian label that produces a range of men’s and women’s hats available in seasonal colours and styles. Created by Tess Corvaia and Robert Tilbury, a creative couple from Queensland, Australia who aim to bring their loyal customers a range of innovative and wearable pieces each season.’ (Lack of colour About page)

Thanks to the lovely hot weather we have being having here, we were offering these hand embroidered monograms onto the hat ribbons or bands, usually of their strawhats as shown.

With a choice of 16 colour for the embroidery, the combinations on offer are numerous.

It’s always great fun working with such different and interesting brands in some of the best known shops in the world!

If you missed out on the opportunity to have your hat personalised in store and would like to get it done, this is something that we can do for you in the studio, get in contact with us by phone or email and we can advise you futher.
