CHOOSE GREEN, CELEBRATE CLEAN
Every Dragonfly Cracker is a celebration of craft,sustainability, and joy — from lake-harvestedhyacinth to hand-tied bows, made with care byKenyan artisans.
REUSE BEGINS AT HOME
Our ribbons aren’t just decoration — they’re keepsakes. Inspired by our founder’s childhood habit of reusing every bow, every tie, every scrap of beauty. Use them again, share them, save them. Sustainability thrives in small gestures.
The art of making, done the long way
We have been crafting crackers this way for years — slowly,thoughtfully, and always with intention. Every sheet of hyacinth paper, every roll of kraft, every ribbon in our studio is treated like it matters. Nothing is taken for granted. It’s the only way we know how to work: honour the materials, honour the hands that shape them, and create joy without waste.
PRINTED WITH CARE
Our prints come to life through . Carefully, hand-pulled and screen printed — using eco-friendly, EU certified inks that are vivid, safe, and gentle on the planet.
No solvents. No shortcuts. Just colour laid one layer at a time by Artisans who know that good things take time. And when your order is ready, it’s packed in our signature handmade newspaper bags — folded, and screen-printed in our studio.
What began as a waste-reducing idea has become part of who we are: recognisable, resourceful, and proudly handmade.
Hand-printed Slow & Steady
This is slow craft in its purest form, where every detail is touched by human hands, not machines.
Every pattern you see on our crackers was pulled by hand —one screen, one colour, one careful pass at a time. Screen printing demands patience: the paper must dry, the screen must be washed, and the next layer must wait its turn
CRAFT USING KRAFT
THE MAKING: AN ALL HANDS PROCESS
No machines. No shortcuts. Every cracker is: hand-rolled, filled and positioned by hand, crimped for that perfect festive silhouette & tied with ribbons one bow at a time.
From lake-harvested hyacinth to hand-stuffed bows, every Local hand and ingenuity shape Dragonfly Cracker. This is a craft you can feel — each crease and crimp carries a human touch, uniquely different from mass-printed, machine-cut crackers.
Artisanal Gifts Inside
We design each gift with the same care that goes into our prints — thoughtful, slow, and proudly handmade. Every item is produced in small artisanal batches that honour craft over convenience. They’re the kind of gifts you keep long after the celebration is over.
