Our 2025 Unwrapped: Top 12 joyful moments
WHAT a year it’s been. December is always the time to look back and feel all reflective, so we’ve opened up our calendar and gathered a dozen of our favourite Wanderlust Life highlights from 2025… each one a little golden memory of its own.

1. COCO
Number one on our list, naturally ❤️ This year, our founder Georgie welcomed baby Coco – our littlest Wanderluster yet. She’s been a regular visitor to HQ ever since and, let’s just say, a total hit with the team.
2. BEADED WORKSHOP
We love bringing people together, and our community Beaded Bracelet workshop was pure joy. A room full of creativity, colour and chatter as our Makers shared top tips on crafting the perfect bracelet.
3. ARENA FLOWERS X WOMEN'S AID
We’re so proud to have joined forces with the ethical florists at Arena Flowers to raise awareness and funds for Women’s Aid, spotlighting our Mother of Pearl Necklace as part of the campaign.
4. ZODIAC WITH LAUREN MARINA
It’s wild to think this one only launched this year! Our Zodiac Collection, created with illustrator Lauren Marina, felt like the embodiment of Wanderlust Life - artful, hand-crafted, meaningful and, of course, written in the stars.
5. Hosting Sophie Hellyer
What a joy it was to host ocean-advocate and model Sophie Hellyer for some coastal magic in North Devon, showing her the sites and snapping her in her favourite jewels.
6. Cherry Tree Collab & Sauna
Our friends at Cherry Tree Campsite transformed this Croyde haven this year, and we celebrated with a team sauna session (and a wildly popular giveaway). Perhaps we’ll do another next year…😏
7. SHE'S ELECTRIC
We road tripped to Daylesford Organic in the Cotswolds for a pop-up event championing sustainably stylish brands (and yes we were very flattered to be invited).
8. BATH RESEARCH TRIP
A few of the team soaked up the historic sites of Bath for a cheeky trend-spotting trip. It’s easy to stay in our North Devon bubble, so this one left us feeling re-inspired, refreshed and re-energised.
9. Thrive Street WITH MARY PORTAS
We’re big fans of Mary Portas, not least because of our shared views that modern retail needs to be a more curated, community-focused future. So what a moment to be selected by her to showcase at Thrive Street, London - a retail space celebrating small brands doing things differently.
10. IN THE PRESS
Grateful to have featured in some top-notch media publications throughout the year. Seeing our jewels in print never stops feeling special. *Cue a little happy dance every single time*.
11. COSY CINEMA EVENING
November saw us host a cosy film night at Woolacombe’s Neo Cinema to raise money and awareness of Women for Women International. Popcorn, prizes, and purpose – the dream trio.
12. OUR BEAUTIFUL TEAM IN BIRTHSTONE FILMS
This year we did things a little differently and brought out birthstone jewellery to life through a series of films which leant into the power of the shifting seasons. So proud of these films, and best of all, they all feature our own Wanderlust-ers! Who needs models when the people who make, sell and market the jewels know them better than anyone?!
13. BONUS DOOR NUMBER 13 - YOU!
And finally, a heartfelt thank you to YOU. It’s been a challenging year for small businesses, and your support means the world. Every order, message and moment keeps our dream — and our hand-crafted ocean-inspired jewels — alive and shining. Here’s to more magic in 2026 ✨
