The story behind the bricks

Two builders.One shared passion.

We're Robin and Christian, the two creative minds behind My Brick Boutique.

Our story didn't begin with a business plan. It began with a shared love for LEGO bricks, an endless curiosity for what they could become and countless hours spent creating something entirely our own.

Where it all began

A shared passion.
A growing story.

Somewhere between building, experimenting and dreaming up our next creation, we realised that our passion had become something much bigger.

What started at our own building table would eventually take us through a creative community, LEGO Masters and countless unforgettable experiences. And we're still discovering where it might lead.

From little bricks
to big ideas.

For us, building has always been about more than following instructions. It's about discovering unexpected possibilities, experimenting with colours and shapes, and finding that one little detail that makes a creation feel just right.

Through Connecting Bricks, we began sharing our original designs with fellow LEGO enthusiasts. What started as a creative outlet grew into a community of around 4,800 followers.

Along the way, we've met inspiring people, discovered new techniques and learned that creativity becomes even more meaningful when you share it.

Beyond the boutique

There's more to
our story.

Beyond My Brick Boutique, we share our love for building through Connecting Bricks, our creative Instagram community filled with original builds, inspiration and behind-the-scenes moments.

From playful experiments to detailed creations, Connecting Bricks is where we let our imagination run free. It's our little corner of the LEGO world, where we share whatever we're dreaming up, discover new ideas and connect with fellow brick enthusiasts.

Thinking
outside the box.

Our passion eventually led us to LEGO Masters: Out of the Box NL. After progressing through three selection rounds, we were selected as the reserve team.

During two intensive training weekends in Amsterdam, we worked on creative building challenges, explored new approaches and learned from LEGO professionals.

The experience pushed us beyond our familiar techniques and reminded us why we fell in love with building in the first place: there's always another way to imagine something.

Inspiration
is everywhere.

Our creative journey has taken us beyond our own building table. From visits to LEGO House and the LEGO Factory to discovering remarkable creations and meeting fellow enthusiasts, every experience has added something to the way we look at building.

We love the small discoveries: a clever building technique, an unexpected colour combination or an idea that suddenly makes everything click.

Meeting the creative minds behind iconic LEGO sets — sometimes even the very set we're holding.

A place where imagination runs wild and we always leave with more ideas than we came with.

Little discoveries

Sometimes the best adventures begin with a search for that one very specific brick.

Always building

Our creativity has its ups, downs and unexpected twists. But that's all part of the ride!

Something
worth sharing.

Over time, we began thinking about how our creations could become part of someone else's story.

A thoughtful gift. A personalised keepsake. An everlasting bouquet. A decorative piece that feels just right in someone's home.

We loved the idea that something made from little bricks could carry a memory, celebrate a milestone or simply make someone smile.

That's how My Brick Boutique came to life.

An independent creative boutique where we design original brick-built collections and explore one-of-a-kind ideas together with our customers.

Our first collection celebrates Christmas, with carefully designed ornaments made to return to the tree year after year. But Christmas is only our first chapter.

The little things matter

Thoughtfully designed.
Built with care.

We believe that the details make the difference. Whether we're developing a new collection or exploring a customer's idea, we approach every creation with curiosity and care.

✧

Designed with intention.

The perfect colour. A beautiful silhouette. A clever connection. We believe every detail should contribute to something special.

◇

Built with care.

From the first idea to the final brick, we take the time to experiment, refine and create something we're proud to share.

♡

Made around you.

The most meaningful creations often have a personal story behind them. We love helping those stories take shape.
