Hi, I’m Nicola 👋🏻
The face behind SoBi.
If you’re new here, I thought it was probably time I introduced myself properly.
Less than a year ago, this little business didn’t exist.
It started with a love of beautiful old sparkly things, a husband with more than 20 years of experience dealing in antiques, and one big question…
“What if we built something of our own?”
Today, SoBi is run from our little farm in the countryside of North West England, with Will helping source treasures and me doing pretty much everything else 😅
Since then, we’ve sent pieces all over the world, watched old treasures begin new chapters, and somehow even had a couple of our pieces end up in the hands of some familiar faces… which still feels completely surreal to me 🤯✨
Some days I feel incredibly proud of what we’re building. Other days I’m battling imposter syndrome and wondering whether I’m good enough 🙈
But regardless of the doubts, I still can’t quite believe how far this little business has come in such a short space of time.
Thank you for supporting our little family business and for following along on the journey 🤍
Nicola & Will x
Have you been here since the beginning, or are you new to SoBi? 👋🏻
