Hello!
We are the Mini Giants and this is our little boutique adventure. We've flown, rolled, stomped and bumped our way around the world in finding the coolest labels for children to stock here. We even came across some things purely by accident, stumbling over our little big feet in trying to get to an ice cream stand and instead ending up in haven of wonderful goodies!
We wanted to find a combination of the best designers to go alongside tiny gems of creative genius that might not otherwise reach these shores. We hope you like our current selection and keep an eye out as we'll always be off on new adventures looking to discover more things to add to the site.
Each of us will pop up all over the site but don't be scared of us as although we may be a little bit wonky, we are also very friendly and don't bite. Well not very often anyway... You may also see us appear in other unexpected places but it's hard to say exactly where and when. For example, sometimes one of us will go for a snooze and the next thing you know they wake up in someone's house on a gift box!
Everyone has their own role in our boutique and so here is a little intro to what each one of us is meant to be doing:
GloopA real people person, Gloop loves to chat and natter and gossip so is perfect as our customer services rep. Call in if you'd like to talk about anything on or to do with the site and Gloop will be delighted to speak with you. Even if you just wanted to know what plans we had for lunch in the boutique!
Special skill: Talking without needing to stop to take a breath
BandyBandy is very bossy and likes giving out orders! When things aren't going the way demanded, which can be quite often, it is common sight to see Bandy with arms crossed, glaring at whoever isn't following the instructions. Which is very scary look indeed and is a sure-fire way to make the offender get on with the task!
Special skill: Creating organisation from the chaos created by the others
SniffHere we have a bundle of mischievous energy! Sniff is anywhere and everywhere, often getting in the way of others and playing tricks on the other Mini Giants. When it comes to finding cool stuff though, Sniff can't be beaten.
Special skill: A super-sense-of-smell that sniffs out fabulous brands when they go on an adventure around the world
Sparks
This is our IT guru! In reality, Sparks doesn't know a lot about computers but all the Mini Giants agreed that Sparks is a brilliant name for a computer expert. Unfortunately, Sparks is a bit confused by it all and doesn't like being in charge of a website due to a fear of spiders!
Special skill: Napping next to our servers
PomThis little one loves pretty bags and gift packaging of all kinds and adores making parcels look pretty in preparation for despatch. The others have to keep a close eye on her though otherwise she will start unwrapping things again as she adores presents... even if they're aren't meant for her and she's wrapped them herself!
Special skill: Tying ribbons into gorgeous bows
RolloThis little oddball loves to assist with measuring so if you have a sizing question, Rollo is sure to want to help! He also has a habit of munching all the food he can find so when not with a tape measure, Rollo can often be found in some corner crunching away on someone else's lunch.
Special skill: Measuring
StompyRunning around with boundless energy, stomping from foot to foot, Stompy is in charge of the warehouse. Keeping him focused is the biggest problem as he is easily distracted by other fascinating things he sees which need immediate investigation. Like an empty cardboard box...
Special skill: Carrying many packages and still managing to stomping along happily
Lickster
Lickster is everyone's assistant and tries to help any way possible, but more often than not just gets in the way. Until it comes to that time in the day when the stamps are about to be attached to the parcels and Lickster jumps in and does it in super-quick time!
Special skill: Licking stamps
We love to hear from any little friends we have out there so please do get in touch if you have anything to say! We can be emailed on cs@minigiants.com or by phone on +44 (0)20 8736 0584.
Lots of love and furry hugs,
The Mini Giants
