Closing the Sugar & Sloth Shop - why, when and what next?
Big (and a tad emotional) news, bestie ❤️
This was a really hard video to make.
I’ve made the incredibly difficult decision to close the Sugar & Sloth shop.
Whilst this is an end, it’s also a beginning.
It’s a weight being lifted, so I can focus on building the BEST MYSTERY BOX EVER, an amazing community, the upcoming Bestie Clubhouse - and so much more!
Not facing all the daily challenges of running a warehouse, will allow me to pour my heart into creating even better boxes, more helpful self-care tools, and a stronger, sparklier community.
What is staying:
• Tiny Hug Club, my monthly mystery box - you’ll still be able to get your fix of brand new and exclusive enamel pins, stationery, and cute things.
• Our Facebook group, IG lives, and amazing community - thank YOU so much for being a part of this.
• Our Teemill clothing and art print shop.
What is going:
• Everything we physically ship from our studio (apart from our subscription boxes). Nothing will be re-stocked, we’ll wind down over the next few months.
What is coming soon (so exciting!!!!):
• The Bestie Clubhouse - a home for our awesome community (that’s you) all in one place.
At the moment we have lots of fun things, freebies, chats, resources etc scattered over our different social channels and website (I bet you don’t even know about lots of them).
These will all be in one place, including chat forums and a lovely, safe space to hang out.
• Oodles more digital goodies.
• More Sugar & sloth products, just in different forms, this is still in development but we are looking at partners for colouring books, art books, and other fun goodies.
• My brand new project… Strategy for Happy
Honestly, it's scary, but deep down, I know this is the right step to take Sugar & Sloth where it’s meant to go, toward more joy, more impact, and more space to create the weird, wonderful things we all love.
I’m so grateful for your support, and I hope you’ll stick with me for this next chapter. 💕
Love you more than rainbow frog stickers,
Anita 🐸🌈✨
P.S
You'll still be able to get new Sugar & Sloth goodies with our monthly mystery box, Tiny Hug Club. We're full right now, but will be opening new members from the waiting room on Friday 6th June, at 5pm.
So sad to hear this but you need to do what you need to do. What you do is amazing.

Oh thank you so much Julie – and please don’t worry, we’ll still be here, just without our Wiltshire warehouse! Your support truly means the world :) x
Also, I am a safeguarding social worker in Wilts, with children and young people. I wonder if we can have a chat at some point around strategy for happy for local teens and young people

Hi Jaime, Thank you so much for your support lovely! Whilst we’re sad to see the back of the shop, we’re exciting to grow and focus on Tiny Hug Club, clothing, art prints and other, new goodies :) Hugs, Anita x
Hi, good on you! You know what’s best for you and your business! Could you please let me know where I can get the magic spells refills from going forward? Thank you!!

Hi Leigh, Thank you for your support lovely :) You can get pen refills for the Magic Spells pen right here: https://www.sugarandsloth.co.uk/products/set-of-3-pen-refills And we’ll be carrying on a members shop with pen refills, and little things that fit inside your boxes. Instead of shipping out every day, we’ll ship any extra goodies inside Tiny Hug Club boxes (which means free shipping – yay) Hugs, Anita x
