WeeScones'story
Allow me to share with you the heartfelt journey behind our adoration for Maileg and our decision to become its exclusive retailer. As a child, I cherished a small black mouse nestled in a matchbox—a humble companion that captured my heart. Years later, as a parent, I found myself revisiting cherished memories, sparking a desire to introduce my own children to the magic of Maileg. It all began with a childhood memory—a simple yet profound connection that endured through the years.

Discovering Maileg felt like rediscovering my childhood mouse, reimagined in a delightful new form. I knew instantly that my children would adore these whimsical creations—and indeed, they do.

Why WeeScones?
With over a decade of experience nurturing young minds in nursery and primary settings, I understand the pivotal role of play and imagination in a child's development. Balancing my love for teaching as a supply teacher with my passion for WeeScones proves to be a delightful challenge—I simply cannot choose between the two, as both hold a special place in my heart. Beyond the classroom, I find joy in exploring the world of children's literature, with a particular fondness for pop-up books. My penchant for collecting dollhouses speaks to my love for all things nostalgic and vintage—you might even catch me perusing antique markets in search of hidden treasures. Founded in 2021, WeeScones is a testament to our family's passion for Maileg products. The exceptional quality of Maileg's offerings is evident from the moment you hold one of their mice in your hands. Our own collection, curated over the years, stands as a testament to this enduring quality. Based in our Scottish home, WeeScones extends its reach to local Farmer's Markets in Edinburgh and Lothians. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for updates on market dates, giveaways and more. And so, our journey unfolds—a story of love, nostalgia and the enduring enchantment of Maileg. We invite you to join us on this magical adventure, as we believe it's only the beginning!
