About

Hi, I’m Meem

Making things by hand has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I’m completely self-taught, and what started as painting for the little ones in my life has grown into NREE: hand-painted jewellery boxes, name art and wooden pieces for the home.

I love wood, bright folk-art colours and the moment a piece gets its final glossy coat. Everything is made slowly, one at a time, and I’m happiest when I’m making something personal, with a name, a colour or a small detail that means something to you.
