Welcome to ChrisCross Designs.
After many years in the toy industry, I’m delighted to be launching a new creative venture that combines my passion for design, colour and storytelling.
As co-founder of Golden Bear Products, I have been fortunate to spend my career helping bring wonderful products and characters to life. Over the years, creativity has always been at the heart of what I do, and ChrisCross Designs is an exciting opportunity to channel that passion into something new.
Launching a new business at this stage in my career feels both exciting and incredibly rewarding. After spending many years helping to develop products for others, it’s been a joy to create a collection that reflects my own love of colour, creativity and character-led design.
The inspiration for the business came during a holiday to the Caribbean a few years ago. While I was there, I took part in a Batik workshop and quickly became fascinated by the vibrant colours, intricate patterns and artistic style. It wasn’t long before the tropical sunsets, golden sandy beaches and shimmering blue seas began inspiring new ideas and designs.
Those early sparks of inspiration eventually became ChrisCross Designs.
Our debut collection features colourful characters, gifts and accessories designed to bring personality and a little fun to everyday life. From Monkee Tailz Softies and keyrings to mugs, bracelets and tote bags, every product has been created with creativity and quality in mind.
Launching a new business is always exciting, and I’m incredibly proud to finally share ChrisCross Designs with the world. This is only the beginning, and I can’t wait to introduce more collections and characters in the months ahead.
Thank you for joining us on the journey.
Love Christine x
