KEEP IT SIMPLE, BUT SIGNIFICANT.

Simplicity makes room for the important things in life (like coffee and plants). Swell Made Co. is a Canadian brand that designs simple, yet bold paper goods, home décor and gifts for swell people, like you. All of our goods are inspired by our mantra – “keep it simple, but significant”. Yes, that's a riff of a quote by Mad Men's Don Draper, but we all know Peggy was the real star. Keep reading about Lesley.  

Life’s moments (big and small) are best celebrated through simple acts of kindness. We hope our goods inspire you to celebrate those moments and cultivate connection. Whether it’s a handwritten note in a card or a thoughtful gift.

Our goods are thoughtfully designed and packaged by Swell Made Co. and produced by other Canadian small businesses like our own. Isn’t that swell? Made in Canada matters.

Thank you so much to @bebopdanie and @alexandragater for organizing “Out of Office” - an evening with an incredible group of women at @makelemonadeco with a panel discussion about entrepreneurship. Tap the photo to meet the women. It’s nights like these reaffirm that we’re in this together and that running your own biz can be messy and that’s OKAY. Just remember why you started. Thank you again for the opportunity to meet even more women in business and for the lovely gifts (and donuts). Community is magic ✨ Pssst - magical egg shaped mirror is coming soon.
Sneak peek into the swell house 👀 You’ve seen this small and mighty bathroom before (although it was missing in our @apartmenttherapy feature - sorry!), but not complete with blush pink tile. This bathroom went from dreadful to delightful 2 years ago, but it was missing something until this summer when we went pink. Why pink? It just felt SO right. Growing up, my grandmother Frances, had a pink bathroom in every single home. From her entirely pink apartment on King West in Toronto (before it was hip) to her posh pad off Broadway in Vancouver. The pink bathroom was always a must. She’s one of classiest ladies I know and she happens to be 96. Now our bathroom feels like home. What do you think? Do you love or hate pink? Do you incorporate memories/nostalgia into your home decor? Intentionally, or not. . Pssst! Look close. You’ll see the moons pouch and two perfectly pink art prints by @swellmadeco 👀 #pink #pinkbathroom #aswellhome #swellmadeco
It’s a jungalow in here 🌿 #jungalow #jungalowstyle #swellmadeco
It’s like a warm hug on a cool fall day 😊 If you need a hug, this candle is for you. It oozes cozy vibes with its familiar, but subtle vanilla notes. Blended by @waxandfireco with bergamot to make it fresh. NEW to the shop! #getlit #swellmadeco
