Hi, I’m Rachel, an artist/designer/creator based in Cornwall, UK.

Rachel Elanor is all about creating that feel-good factor within yourself and your home. Those little cosy moments that hug your soul and help you feel at peace in the world.

The beginnings of this brand actually started back in 2013 when I learnt how to repair vehicle leather interiors during my 15 year stint as a car valeter! This started a series of creative experiments with leather and other materials culminating in the collection of wall art you see now. With Scandinavian design and the Danish concept of hygge playing a massive part in the inspiration behind these designs, I wanted to create something a little bit different that could bring character and warmth to home spaces.

Then came the earrings. Now, I'm someone who has really sensitive ears. I actually only learnt about metal sensitivities a few years ago, which enlightened me as to why I couldn't wear most earrings for longer than a couple of hours before my ears got irritated. It dawned on me that with the smaller offcuts of leather I had the opportunity to create a collection of lightweight, hypoallergenic earrings that could be comfortably worn all day by us sensitive ear folk. As a work-from-homer who doesn't really wear make up and keeps the outfits comfy-casual, a nice pair of earrings can pep up a jumper and leggings combo and boost my mood for the day!

We don't have much control over what happens out there in the world, but we do have the freedom to create the environment we want in our own homes. If the products I create can inspire you to create more joy within yourself and your home then I've done my job ☺️

Get to know me!
