Meet the Maker

Walnutterz began at a kitchen table with a walnut shell, a fine brush and a lifelong love of football. What started as a bit of fun quickly became an obsession — carving, casting and hand-painting tiny characters that capture the spirit of the players and clubs we grew up adoring.

Every figure is made by hand, one at a time. I chose walnut because it's natural, characterful and completely unlike the mass-produced plastic alternatives — no two shells are ever the same, so no two figures are ever alike. From the first plaster mould to the final coat of varnish, each piece takes hours of patient work.

Football has always been about memories for me — where you were, who you watched it with, the players who made you fall in love with the game. Walnutterz is my way of turning those memories into something you can hold, display and treasure.
