    The story behind the design...

    I started the idea for designing throws while battling post-natal depression and anxiety. After giving birth to my 3rd son I initially adapted very well but when he clicked over 6 months old, I no longer felt like myself. After both seeking professional help and searching to find my own therapies, I rediscovered my love of graphic design.

    In all areas of my life it became about focusing on details and adapting mindfulness - finding beauty in the simple things. This design focuses on flower and sun shapes surround by yellows, as with colour therapy, yellows help create the feeling of joy, confidence and enthusiasm while helping alleviate feelings of depression. Therein lies the birth of Five Hearts and this throw aptly named ‘Better Days’. 

    To help support others who may be experiencing perinatal anxiety and/or depression, we are proud to donate $5 from each 'Better Days' throw sold to PANDA (Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia).

    PANDA supports women, men and families across Australia affected by anxiety and depression during pregnancy and in the first year of parenthood. PANDA operates Australia’s only National Helpline for individuals and their families to recover from perinatal anxiety and depression, a serious illness that affects up to one in five expecting or new mums and one in ten expecting or new dads.
    .
    We have donated a total of $500 to PANDA as of 1 July 2024.

    Pure Happiness

    Such a happy design to use for all our bright adventures. This is my 3rd throw and one of my favourites because of the colour. The fabric is beautiful and easy too care for. I use it as a blanket when camping, a rug for the beach, and to decorate my bedroom.

    A years worth of love

    I bought this throw a year ago when it was first released and it still looks just as great as when I first got it! I’ve literally taken it all the way to the Northern Territory, it’s perfect for snuggling at home but also for all your outdoor adventures as well!
    It shipped super quickly and I love supporting a small Australian business!

    Worth the wait!

    I am absolutely in love with my Better Days throw. I had been following Steph for more than a year and knew I just had to order a throw from her and I FINALLY decided which one I wanted. Recycled fibres are a huge tick for me and the fact that $5 from each throw is donated to PANDA is even better.
