STORY BEHIND SWIM AWAY WITH THE MERMAIDS

Part of Annika Reed Studio’s Upstairs Downstairs collection, Swim Away with the Mermaids belongs to the Upstairs chapter four story led designs for children’s spaces where imagination runs deep. Rooted in folklore and family memory, this pattern brings the quiet magic of the sea indoors, blending myth, memory, and the joy of make believe.

This design celebrates the spirit of the sea and the stories it carries. Inspired by my family’s roots in fishing and the sea shanties that once filled our home it honours the rhythm of coastal life, where folklore and everyday memories blur.

The mermaids in this pattern aren’t fairytale creatures; they're the ones children spot in rock pools, dream about in the bath, and draw in the sand. Hand carved in my Somerset studio, this design is for anyone who’s ever stood at the edge of the sea and let their imagination swim just a little further.
