'Hi! I'm Megan - wife, māmā to three boys, and the face (and name) behind Claxton+Co. When I couldn’t source a mess mat that wasn’t covered in owls or unicorns to go underneath my sons high chair, I decided to create my own - and our modern mess mats were born. Since then we’ve been expanded the range to include a range of sizes, colours and products. At the centre of it all is our desire to create functional and practical products which you are proud to have in your home.

Our vegan leather products are designed by me, and made right here in New Zealand. When you support our dream you are also inadvertently supporting the Sheila and her family run cutting house, and our local retired seamstress, Mary.'
