Meri Meri is a leading children’s lifestyle, party and giftware company. It started from a kitchen table in Los Angeles in 1985 with founder Meredithe Stuart-Smith (whose childhood nickname was Meri Meri) making her first cards with some scissors and pens, and a big pot of glitter. This grew to a network of mother’s working from home to Meredithe's designs and direction. Now Meredithe heads a studio of thirty designers and artworkers in Cheltenham in the UK, creating stationery, party accessories, bakeware, fun jewellery and children's accessories and homewares.
