Leicestershire Life

July 9, 2014 by BlossomCo Leave a Comment

At BlossomCo, we have always counted ourselves very fortunate to be based in the beautiful Leicestershire countryside. What could be better than looking out of your window at work onto fields of corn, cows and combines!?

We take pride in supporting British jobs and go one step further by using the immense pool of talent that we have found on our doorstep – all of our products are handmade by fantastic local Leicestershire seamstresses

We were therefore thrilled to have a lovely glossy feature in this month’s Leicestershire and Rutland Life which showcases the latest news, events and products in or area.

It’s great to be supported by our local community and feel very lucky to be a Leicestershire based business!

Happy Harrogate

June 19, 2014 by BlossomCo Leave a Comment

We’re really getting into show season this summer and are thrilled to be exhibiting at our first show in Harrogate this July.

Harrogate, the spa town famous for ‘healing’ mineral waters, has recently been crowned as the happiest place to live in Britain for the second year in a row http://dailym.ai/1qTmRx9

Come and see us at the happiest place in the UK between the 13th and 16th July at the Home and Gift show.

We’re looking forward to meeting lots of new buyers and we love seeing our existing suppliers too!

Exhibiting Our Latest Designs

May 9, 2014 by BlossomCo Leave a Comment

With exhibition season looming, what better opportunity could there be to introduce two new designs to the incredibly popular BlossomCo collection of Made in England, handmade dog collars and leads.

‘Otto’ is a tasteful combination of red cord with a red and navy spot lining. It is the perfect accoutrement for those looking to dress to impress.

Our other new design, ‘Kitty’, is a beautiful blue floral with a red spot backing. It is guaranteed to make your dog the envy of the park!

And it’s so new we haven’t managed to get it photographed properly yet! (You can see it for real though if you visit us at Pulse – details below).

What better way to treat your dog than with a lovely new BlossomCo collar and lead? It is the perfect accessory.

Don’t forget to come and see us and our new designs at Pulse, Earl’s Court from 11th-13th May, and at Harrogate Home and Gift from 13th-16th July.

Photo Shoot at deVOL, Cotes Mill

January 30, 2014 by BlossomCo Leave a Comment

In the heart of Leicestershire countryside, where our products are handmade, we only had to travel a few winding lanes to find ourselves at Cotes Mill.

Excited to be photographing our new Spring florals, we could barely wait to unpack them and start clicking away.

Cotes Mill has recently been given abundant care and attention, restoring it to a beautiful and atmospheric space, and the splendid home of deVOL Kitchens.

We were spoilt for choice for good shots, with light streaming in through the windows, and gorgeous displays at every turn.

The clever people at deVOL have put together a beautiful collection of giftware, vintage furniture and handmade home accessories, all enveloped by their beautiful bespoke kitchens. we couldn’t have asked for a better location.

Thank you deVOL, we love the results!
