Our Story

Welcome to Dandie Store!

Dandie has evolved over the last 5 years. We began in Mount Maunganui with a brick and mortar store. It was a place where we could showcase our own brands and friends work. Along came our girl Juni and a move to the Coromandel to live off grid, With space to make and create products we are passionate about. 

 Rosie comes from a background in fashion design. Starting her first label Beach Knickers 8 years ago. She has learned the ins and outs of New Zealand manufacturing, focusing on quality small runs of vintage inspired pieces. Using dead stock fabrics and local cutters and seamstresses. With the changes in life seasons Rosie is now redirecting her brand to children’s ware and fun unique adult pieces,  cut and sewing all the children’s ware herself in our off grid property. 

 Josh, is always in his workshop tinkering. With a background in engineering his main medium to work with is steel. Spending most of his time making New Zealand made steel goods for his brand Sitting Pretty Design. His hooks and candelabras have been sent and loved all around the world for their unique design and quality. 

 Juni is our beautiful 2 year old daughter. Full of energy and excitement for life. She  also loves helping pack all the orders. 

 Everything is made from start to finish, and packed and dispatched from our off grid property in rural coromandel, New Zealand.  Thank you for your support and we hope our creations bring colour and joy into your homes!
