I read something nice this morning for what a good marriage is but I think it applies to every relationship…

“A good marriage is one where each partner secretly suspects they got the better deal”

Love, respect, appreciation and so much more every day not just today! Happy V-day! ❤️

Such a beautiful photo of nakasian wearing her in this lovely cafe in the Center of Athens Ψύρρα. What do you think?

I woke up this morning with a -5 temperature outside 🥶 what a better opportunity to wear my favourite ?

Since I’m posting after quite some time I wanted to take the chance and thank you all for being so supportive and patient. It has been a very busy yet lovely month making your orders and at the same time making extra knits for the two fairs I participated in (one in the UK and one in Greece)!

I’m wishing you all a lovely and creative 2023 with health, peace (within you and in the world) and happiness!

Ready to pop the champagne? 🍾LUMI turned TWO today and I want to celebrate this milestone with YOU! This weekend only take 20% off sitewide with the code “LUMIISTWO”!

I just wanted to take this opportunity and introduce myself again in case we haven’t met! I’m Emilia, the person behind LUMI - hi! 🙋‍♀️
I have to say that I’m very happy today celebrating this milestone! LUMI started as a hobby based on a passion of mine (inherited by my grandmother) and has now turned into my small business! Even though the past two years have been a roller coaster for everyone, they have brought (me personally) lots of joy, creativity, achievements and amazing people like YOU! Thank you for every like, follow, purchase, comment, review, referral, message, share.. without your support and encouragement LUMI wouldn’t be here!
I’m celebrating today the journey so far but also what is coming up! Lots of exciting knits for this season and hopefully for more to come!!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart and I hope that you will continue to follow along on this journey with me.

Every summer has its own story…
Carry all the beach (and not only!) essentials in your and keep the sand or pebbles out of your stuff!

Summer essentials..the ultimate beach bag that can also be used as an everyday bag or shopping bag.

Made with natural yarn that consists of 45% organic cotton and 55% h**p, the Verkko bag is your summer necessity ready to be filled up and carried around!

Carrying your water bottle is overlooked but so essential for keeping yourself hydrated especially during the hot months of summer. Having a water bottle holder/ carrier makes such a difference as you keep your hands free (whether you are a mom, you are travelling, or during your activities - walk, shopping, beach) and you can also avoid disposable bottles which you throw away after drinking.

Available in four colours, these water bottle holders can definitely match your style!
