Stop by to find out about what we've been up to and what we are interested in. From new products to old favourites and interesting concepts to fun competitions there's always something going on. If you have any ideas you think might inspire one of the team to put pen to paper we'd love to hear from you!
This unseasonably warm weather has set us to spring cleaning at the studio and has given us an idea too. We have a stringent quality control process and every week there are some products which don't make it over the bar, that got us thinking...
You'll notice that the sign above our shop says 'Pop Up' but we are very excited to announce that we're staying! When we opened the shop we thought it might just be until the end of January 2019 but we have been offered the lease for longer...
It's Raynaud's Awareness Month please help to spread the word! I first heard of Raynaud's Syndrome in 2010 when a lady came to our stall at The Blackberry Fair in Whitchurch, Shropshire, I already knew from experiecnce that keeping the wrists warm helped to keep the hands warmer but...

After all, given the choice wouldn't we all rather buy from people who care for their teams?
As Graham and I headed off from Stansted Airport for Copenhagen last week we really didn't know what to expect. Now, having spent the day at Trustpilot HQ meeting the team who manage the independent reviews we receive, met some great people, seen some of the sites (and found a lovely bar in which to enjoy the rugby) we have lots to share with you...
One of the things I love about my job is working with a never-ending array of colour. We often have new ideas, mixing colours in ways that surprise and sometimes it's our Made to Order customers who inspire us...
Phew, what a weekend it was in snowy Shropshire! In spite of many of our lovely team being snowed in at home for 2 days we're keeping up with production, packing and shipping orders...whilst snow-bound over the weekend we were busy having fun too...
When I sat down at my sewing machine 8 years ago I had no idea that it was the first step towards starting a business in manufacturing. We hear a lot about Britain once having been a manufacturing powerhouse but the truth is really more positive...
