About us
"Find a job you love, and you'll never work a day in your life" - Mark Twain
It's a classic quote... but for me it's very very true.
Hi! I'm Hilary, and this is my small business, hilART
see what I did there?
I've always had such a love of crafting since I was young, mostly from watching Art Attack 24/7, so for me, to finally be able to launch hilART is a dream come true. All products are designed, handmade, and packed in house, quite literally from my kitchen table, in Ally Pally, London.
It's mostly a solo effort, but I do have the help of my partner Mark, and official mascot for hilART, Lenny the beagle 🐾
Thank you so much for checking out our website. Hopefully you find something you love, as much as I've loved making it for you.
Lots of terrazzo love,
Jesmonite?
All of our products are made from Jesmonite, an eco-friendly product loved by everyone from hobbyists to architects and manufacturers.
Jesmonite starts as two products, a powder and a liquid, and can be used for a wide variety of decorative purposes, due to it's versatility in achieving a range of textures and finishes.
A Green Dream
Jesmonite is eco-friendly, water based, and kind to the environment.
Our packaging is fully recyclable

Take care of me!
