From Garden Shed to Global Craft Brand
Craft Buddy was founded in 2017 by brothers Dino and Gary Wadhwani, who turned their passion for creativity and family roots in the arts & crafts industry into a fast-growing, international brand. What began in a garden shed has grown into a thriving business based in Chesham, Buckinghamshire, now employing over 40 people and serving customers in more than 25 countries.
Creators of the Crystal Art™ Phenomenon
Our breakthrough came in 2017 with the launch of Crystal Art™, the UK’s first diamond painting kits. Loved by both children and adults, the brand has gone on to become a household name in creative crafting—featured on QVC, stocked in major retailers like John Lewis, Smyths and Hobbycraft, and enjoyed by crafters worldwide.
Bringing Magic Through Licences
We proudly collaborate with leading global licences including Disney, Peter Rabbit, and Harry Potter. These magical collections have expanded the appeal of our crafts and introduced our joyful creations to new generations of crafters.
