KIRSTY PALMER and www.Blockart.co.uk
Children’s nursery art business, Blockart (www.blockart.co.uk) was launched last summer by Kirsty Palmer, of Eskbank, Midlothian.
Kirsty has experience working in design and management but stopped working when her two small sons arrived.
I couldn’t find any non-brand artworks for my son’s rooms which did not cost a fortune, so I designed my own starting with safari animals. Friends started putting orders in and I decided to set up my own small business from home.
I make sturdy artworks that can be customised for individual clients featuring bespoke designs, names or specific room colours. Each piece is mounted on a beautifully finished block which sits out from the wall, meaning no framing is required.

I work from my studio set up in the garden shed. No design is too big or small for me - I love creating childrens and babies art, and it is a pleasure to be involved in a young persons life. Some of the art, for example the 'Baby Birth Prints' are not just a unique way to celebrate the arrival of a baby, but are also a keepsake which can be treasured for years to come.
I look forward to seeing you all at the Edinburgh Baby and Child Fair!
