Travel Charms and Souvenirs for Explorers of the World Hello! Each bespoke creation is made to order in my home studio.
(102)

I'm Heather, designer, maker and face behind The Token Hunter, a British based brand created from a love of design and travel. A childhood spent chasing adventure guaranteed a lifetime of wanderlust was to follow...

In 2013 I quit my day job to pursue my dreams. Buying a one way ticket to Bangkok, I lived and worked throughout South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand for the following three yea

rs. Here The Token Hunter was born; at home on the open road, whilst exploring ways in which to create, collect and remember all of my big adventures! Inspired by wildlife and the wilderness, soaring cities and sunsets, natural wonders and great oceans, my philosophy is simple; I want to create personalised products that will make my customers smile. I live on the North West Coast, right by the sea where you can find me walking my dog Wilson and dreaming of my next big adventure! So, perhaps you're here to purchase a Token for yourself or a friend? Why not embrace your inner wanderlust with a travel inspired design to remember the perfect journey! Travel Charms and Souvenirs that kick start conversations and capture long lasting memories of your favourite destinations, near and far. Each vintage map from my collection is unique in colour and scale and when set in your chosen charm it is preserved forever, offering a tiny wearable window into a different time and place.

The biggest thank you to everyone who made such kind and generous contributions to my fundraiser for Breast Cancer Awareness.

Together we raised £450 💕

I was absolutely blown away by your love and support and couldn’t believe I sold all bracelets within just a couple of hours.

‘For some people, their most important wish is to stay in their own home as they approach end of life, but taking care of someone who is very ill can be particularly difficult.’

This was my Grandma’s final wish and one as a family we wanted to honour and support. Various organisations across the Fylde Coast helped coordinate this and I hope the money raised will help other families in similar circumstances to ours.

I also hope you love your bracelets and wear them with pride!

Thanks once again.

With love & gratitude, Heather ###

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 💕

It is also my Grandma’s Birthday - Today in fact! Happy Birthday Mave 💫

In August 2023 she lost a very short yet brutal battle against the disease. It was heartbreaking to watch and there was very little we could do apart from hold her hand.

Mave was the perfect blend of Grandma and best friend. Her determination to remain eternally youthful was highlighted by her reluctance to acknowledge her birthday, which we were never allowed to mention or celebrate - Despite her sharing this special date each year with her eldest son, my Dad.

I have made a small collection of beaded bracelets in memory of those we have loved and lost and for the many who continue to fight their battle against breast cancer.

Together we can wear them, united in love and grief 🕊️

I’m asking for a minimum donation of £10.00 to purchase and *ALL* proceeds raised will be donated to The Trinity Hospice, a leading local palliative care provider here on the Fylde Coast. Last year I raised £400 and would love to beat that target 🤞🏻

‘For some people, their most important wish is to stay in their own home as they approach end of life, but taking care of someone who is very ill can be particularly difficult.’

This was my Grandma’s final wish and one as a family we wanted to honour and support. Various organisations across the Fylde Coast helped coordinate end of life care in the house she had called home for almost 60 years. I hope the money I raise will help other families in similar circumstances.

To order please send a DM with your choice of design. Prompt payment will be required. Thank you all so very much!

I’ve recently started sourcing vintage and pre-loved beads for my collections and I’m head over heels in love with the results.

Of course this is great for the environment but it also ensures my designs remain totally unique and one of a kind. These pieces are no exception!

Each beaded bracelet is filled with semi-precious stones, glass, shells and vintage pearls combined with hints of orange, ochre and fiery amber to reflect the perfect Autumnal Sunset.

💚 This week's collection is filled with Green Malachite, known as the Stone of Transformation, which is used for deep energy cleaning, bringing healing and positive transformation to the wearer.

💚 There's also hints of Kambaba Jasper, which is rich in orbs and swirls of green and black. This stone is used to aid in meditation and provide tranquility and peace.

💚 Red Jasper also features within the collection. This is a stone of empowerment and stability. It helps to ground and stabilise the energy of the Root Chakra, promoting feelings of security and strength.

The full collection can be viewed in my Autumn Story Highlights.

£15.00 each - DM to order 💚

Laura started off as my Yoga Teacher and during the 7 years since we first crossed paths, she has also become an incredible friend 💫

I race into her classes each week and float out. They are my non negotiable. I do everything I can to attend. Thanks Dad for babysitting duties 🙏🏻

Some times it's tough; I'm short on time, tired, busy at work or juggling family life but I ensure I show up and it always pays off.

I leave feeling 100% better than I did an hour earlier and I know all the other students in attendance will agree.

Laura has the most calming presence, her flows are challenging, her knowledge amazes me and her words relax and inspire.

On Sunday 8th December we will be holding a joint workshop together 🧘‍♀️

This beautiful day will involve an energising flow, breath work, meditation, heart opening cacao, relaxation and sound. We will then make a bracelet combining a collection of crystals and beads that represent love, peace, spiritual growth and intuition.

We will finish with a delicious lunch and you will leave feeling recharged for the Autumn months, wearing a personalised Token to remind you of your day with us!

Tickets are £66.00 per person. All abilities welcome.

For more info please contact Laura via DM ❤️

Earlier this year Angela from and I united forces and held our very first Mother Blessing. This beautiful and empowering ceremony is an alternative to a baby shower - Inspired by rituals originating from several indigenous cultures that aim to prepare a woman for birth and motherhood.

A very special mum-to-be was joined by her family and friends honouring and helping her prepare for birth and motherhood. We began with friend's making the mother a flower crown, then introductions and the lighting of candles.

Each person read out personal messages of love and support to the mother as they threaded beads onto a bracelet, that they will wear until the arrival of the baby. Then they each chose and blessed a bead that was threaded into a bracelet for the mother, which symbolically recognises the circle of women from whom the mother will draw strength.

Good food was enjoyed along with great conversation, love and laughter. If you're interested in learning more about this, please get in touch with myself or Angela ❤️

Behind The Scenes

The Token Hunter was launched from happy and humble beginnings; at home on the open road whilst exploring ways in which to collect, create and travel.

A childhood spent chasing adventure guaranteed a lifetime of wanderlust to follow and in 2013 Chief Explorer and Founder Heather quit her day job to pursue her dreams. Buying a one way ticket to Bangkok, she lived and worked throughout South East Asia, Australia and New Zealand for the following three years. Here her small, independent business was born.

Inspired by soaring cities and sunsets, natural wonders and great oceans, Heather’s philosophy is simple; she wants to create personalised products that will make her customer’s smile.

Crafted by hand and heart, The Token Hunter offers a bespoke service that allows you to map your story and capture long lasting memories of your favourite destinations, near and far. Combining vintage maps, flags and laser cut locations each is unique in colour and scale, therefore no two designs will ever be the same.
