About ChrisCross Designs

Welcome to ChrisCross Designs, where colour, creativity and character-led design come together to create joyful gift collections that make people smile.

With many years of experience in the gift and toy industry, founder Christine Nicholls has brought her passion for design to life through a growing portfolio of distinctive brands. Every collection is thoughtfully created with a focus on originality, quality and playful design, from colourful characters and handcrafted accessories to licensed collections developed in partnership with trusted organisations.

How it all Began

From as early as I can remember, creativity has always been at the heart of everything I do. Inspired by my very talented mum and encouraged through years of studying art and design, I discovered a love of creating products that bring joy to people.After graduating, I began my career in the toy and gift industry, where I spent many years designing, developing and bringing products to life.

It was an incredible experience that gave me invaluable knowledge of design, product development, manufacturing and every aspect of building successful brands. More recently, I decided it was time to bring together everything I’d learned and create something of my own. ChrisCross Designs is the result of that journey -  a place where colour, creativity and character-led design come together to create collections with personality.

Today, ChrisCross Designs is home to our debut collections, including Monkee Tailz, Cats Protection and Bollywoof, with many more exciting ideas already in development.

I’m delighted to be sharing the beginning of this new adventure and look forward to what’s ahead.
