Madison
What is your big dream? I want to teach little children like me to have fun
Do you have special powers? My special power is playing with my friends meaning we can play all day long without getting tired
Who is the strongest person in the world? Mr Strong from the Mr Men
What is the best thing in life? Being with my family and friends
Are you scared of anything? No not really apart from witches they’re not nice
What makes you laugh ? My Papi, he’s really funny and has a funny moustache. My joke is “what do you call a pig that knows karate? Pork Chop!”
Your favourite films, books, apps? My favourite film is Princess and my favourite book is Prince Stories
Something you did recently that you really loved ? I got a gold award at school for helping somebody
The best holidays you ever had ? The best holiday was when we went with Mummy and Papi to France and we camped in the forest and we rode our bikes
A city/place that you would dream to visit? Disneyland 100%
If you had a magic wand, what would you do with it right now? I would fly to Princess Land and we would have a picnic. Yumm.
Charlotte
A place you saw when you were a child, and that made its mark on you? There is a spot in Cornwall in the south west of England that we used to go to when we were growing up. It overlooks the sea, beaches and cliffs and is the perfect spot to take yourself away from the pace fo the city. Its also where my husband and I got engaged so it holds extra importance now
The place you love near your home? Broadway Market in East London definitely. It has the perfect balance between creativity, inspiration and openness for everyone to enjoy
Where do you dream to go for your next family holiday? My husband is half Sicilian so we see family there a lot. A beautiful combination of fantastic food, incredible heritage and history with so many un-spoilt areas. A great place to draw inspiration on
The children’s brands your cherish? My own What Mother Made. We have worked so hard to maintain this dedication to detail and handmade construction in every piece we make, that if we didn’t cherish it, we wouldn’t be where we are today
The children’s stores you love to visit and buy from? In With The Old in Islington London is brilliant for having such an eclectic mix of vintage homewear and clothing
Last thing you bought for Madison? A Snow White costume as she absolutely loves the film
The product/purchase that changed your life? A few years ago I was given some old photographs of my parents growing up. They we children and in clothing that instantly caught my attention. Looking at these pictures and falling in love with the clothing at the time, was my eureka moment and made me realize that creating beautifully hand crafted children’s clothes that we based on nostalgic family memories was the path that lay in waiting for me
Do you have a big dream and if so what is it? I have two dreams, firstly its to be the best mother I can be for my children, the second is to build my handmade childrenswear label, What Mother Made into the best brand it can be with stores internationally
Something that made you laugh out loudly recently? Madison recently did an impromptu play for us in our living room she had the whole family in stitches.
