The word ephemera is derived from the Greek ephēmeros, meaning ‘lasting only a day’, and describes the things in our lives that exist, are used or enjoyed for only a short time. Ephemera, as a brand, aims to preserve these fleeting moments of childhood by crafting keepsake items. I believe that the value of these moments lies not just in their brevity, but in the emotional connections they form. By crafting gender-neutral pieces such as growth charts, reusable birthday crowns, and keepsake boxes, I aim to capture the important moments and milestones of a lifetime. Each item is thoughtfully designed with handmade touches, ensuring they endure as meaningful mementos, celebrating the beauty of nostalgia and the stories we carry with us.
