Learn about us

Hi I'm Caz, the founder behind The Next Chapter. What started as a heartfelt love letter to design and reading has grown into a beloved small business based in Hertfordshire, UK.

My journey to creating The Next Chapter was driven by my deep appreciation for both literature and creative design. After years of nurturing minds as a teacher, I made the decision to leave my career and pursue my passion for design. This transition marked a new chapter in my life, one where I could blend my love for books with my creative flair.

In founding The Next Chapter, I set out to create a space where fellow book enthusiasts could celebrate their love for reading through beautifully crafted products. Each item in our collection, from bookmarks and stickers to mugs and stationery, reflects my dedication to merging stylish design with the joys of literature.

Based in Hertfordshire, our small business is fuelled by a commitment to quality and a genuine love for the literary world. Our vision was to build more than just a shop; we wanted to create a community where readers and design lovers could connect and find inspiration.

At The Next Chapter, every product is a love letter to fun and quirky designs and a nod to our obsession with reading. We invite you to join us on this journey and discover how each piece can add a touch of magic to your reading experience.

Thank you for being part of our story. Here’s to the next chapter!
