JANUARY 2026

Take a first look at new products, hot picks and seasonal favourites

This month we are beginning the celebrations of our 100th year!! From Humble Beginnings In 1926, Edgar Birch commenced his business in Melbourne’s Flinders Lane with only 100 pounds and a suitcase of sewing needles, safety pins, press studs and elastic. His customers depended on Edgar’s range of quality imported haberdashery goods. Gradually, Edgar’s family joined the business, which quickly expanded the Company across Australia. To this day, Birch Creative remains a family-owned business, with the 5th generation of the family proudly continuing Edgar’s legacy. To celebrate we will launch many new products to support you in both increasing sales and profits.
