🌟Celebrating 6 years of Medal Envy 🌟
I started my business on a whim during lockdown in June 2020.
Medal Envy was born out of a passion for running and medals.
I have run 15 half marathons, 8 marathons and a 34 mile ultra marathon to date. The medals awarded at the finish line have always been so important to me and a big motivator to keep going during the race.
Every medal marks a huge achievement for me and are proudly displayed on medal hangers.
I created my first bespoke medal, in 2018, to raise money for my charity place in The London Marathon. These were custom made from my initial design and I loved seeing my ideas come to life.
In 2020, during lockdown and on a bit of a whim, I started selling on Etsy with just a handful of the custom medals that I had created.
I was working full time when I started Medal Envy, but have reduced my hours over the years, as my business has continued to grow. It has been hard work trying to do two jobs, but the business is my passion, so I am happy to put in the hours.
My hard work has paid off and Medal Envy has evolved into the business it is today, with us now having our own website I am excited to see what the future holds.
Thank you for supporting our small business, every sale means so much, I hope you love my medals as much as I love creating them.
