Our Story

Hello, I’m Dua, the hands, heart, and creative mind behind The Clumsy Ballerina. I’m a mum of two little girls, and what began as a simple handmade bow for my daughter’s birthday has blossomed into a whimsical world where craftsmanship meets childhood daydreams. I’ve always been a creative at heart, and after welcoming my second daughter I found myself drawn to the delicate art of tambour embroidery, an art form I’ve been practicing and refining ever since.

Each bow from The Clumsy Ballerina is thoughtfully designed, hand tied, and embroidered by me, blending timeless elegance with a touch of playful charm. The brand is a celebration of handmade artistry and meaningful details, where creativity and nostalgia come together to create keepsakes designed to be treasured.
