Hi! I am Liv (Olivia), born and bred near the beautiful town of Ilkley. I live with my partner Luke and our two children.

What do you do at Studio Wald? How long have you been working here? 

I work as a Freelance Production Assistant at Studio Wald, mainly assisting with making and compiling of products for wholesale orders. I have been working freelance for Jake and Freya since December 2021.

What is your favourite part of the job?

The people!

Tell us about your beautiful shop - October Sunshine?

I run an online concept store curating colourful stationery, cards and homeware.

I originally launched my website in 2017 but paused it for a while due to work and family commitments. I relaunched in 2020.

How do you find such unique products? What is the inspiration behind the collection?

I often find beautiful products via social media and then research the brand. My inspiration is colour! I am committed to spread joy through colourful and unique goods.

Favourite thing about running an indie brand? 

I love the creative freedom of expressing my own personality and style through the curation of my stock.
