About U Matter

U Matter

I lovingly make beautiful ceramic coasters with positive messages of encouragement and love. You are loved, U Matter

I am Nikki and I live in Sheffield, England with my husband (Rob), 2 children (Joe and Hattie) and our little dog (Womble). For my day job, I work part-time running parent and toddler groups at our church, I love it. I see lots of mums and dads starting out in family life. I get to journey with them, support them and love them. Being a new parent (or an old one for that matter!) is amazing and life changing but does not come without its challenges. I get the very blessed opportunity to encourage, lift up and give hope to these mums and dads (and grand parents).

I have always loved crafting in many various forms, so a while ago I made some coasters as gifts to give away at one of my parent toddler groups (I figured if the people I had made them for didn’t like them they could just pop them into their drawer and forget about them till the next time I visit!) Everyone who received one seemed genuinely thankful and loved the messages I had printed on each one. I love making them and encouraging others, so I thought why not make a bunch and see if others like them too?

The coasters are made using a decoupage technique on a ceramic tile, sealed and backed with cork. They are heat and water resistant and can be wiped clean. All the designs are my own (I really love the design part) and always have my ears open for inspiring sayings, quotes or words of affirmation to pop on a coaster. I have recently added ceramic fridge magnets and hanging decorations to my repertoire too! I work from my home in Sheffield...on any available surface not already covered in kids craft!!

Whether a tea or coffee drinker,wine or gin (or both!!), scatter these lovely coasters everywhere and let them be a reminder that you are loved, that U MATTER.
