Our Story
Kia Ora & Welcome to Poppy-Smic Owls
About Me
My name is Huia-Rei Couch but everyone calls me Rei (Ray), I am the creative hands and owner of Poppy-Smic Owl. I grew up in the small bay 'Rapaki' in the Lyttelton Harbour just 20 minutes from Christchurch. Poppy Smic Owls is my passion and journey - I absolutely love spending my days sewing & creating.
About Poppy Smic Owl
Poppy-Smic Owls is an arrangement of childrens and babies clothing, and accessories. I choose gorgeous fabrics that reflect in my original designs & have my own Maori design fabric to make kakahu pepi clothing too. We have a large range of upcycled wool blanket products and garments in addition to our range of Te Reo educational toys, Kiwiana from Moana Road and our beautiful range of Sonz Pacific Island and Maori inspired earrings.
I have a Studio set up at my home in Woolston, Christchurch for retail sales by appointment as well as a retail space at The Lyttel Kiwi.
