About Lucky Little Penguins
Take a walk on the wild side with our adorable Australian designed wildlife keepsakes and tea towels. The Lucky Little Penguins brand is all about reducing unnecessary plastic waste by sourcing plastic free and recycled materials for our displays and packaging.
Our DNA: Creating unique Australian products that care about you and our planet.
Regional Australian wholesaler and designer with a focus on recycling our precious resources and reducing plastic pollution.
Why Keepsakes that Care?
My focus is on selling quality Australian designed or made products that are either plastic free, biodegradable or contain recycled materials. Participating in beach clean-ups and watching David Attenborough docos' has certainly brought home to me the impact of plastic waste has on our blue planet. This is the reason why it is so important for me to source quality products which are ocean- friendly.
Please consider the planet when you buy a gift or souvenir because:
A gift given out of kindness to our planet as well as to the person who receives it benefits everyone.
Why Lucky Little Penguins?
Lucky Little Penguins seemed a fitting name for a business based in a coastal town that lays claim to a small colony of Little Penguins, also referred to as Fairy or Blue penguins.
Warrnambool's colony of Little penguins inhabit a small offshore island called Middle Island during the breeding season. But a few years back, luck was running out for Warrnambool's Little Penguins due to the presence of marauding foxes.
But the dwindling colony was saved in the nick of time when a Maremma sheepdog called Oddball was trained up to be a penguin guardian. Oddball passed away in 2017 but her legacy lives on with the Middle Island Maremma Project.
The Maremma presence on Middle Island has ensured a safe haven for the penguins. Almost wiped out by foxes, the Little Penguins have been very lucky indeed thanks to their doggy protectors.
