Proper full circle moment.
I had my Van racked out by Ben at .
I met Ben in 2014 when I was desperate to find an affordable first workshop, I drove round farm to farm until I found South Dean farm. I hadn't even started my training with the society and to be totally honest didn't really know how to run a business. He rented a corner to me in a old tractor barn, it was freezing and draft but it was where we all have to start.
Watching Ben's work ethic and attention to detail when I was very first started out and he offered me a small space so I could start my business I am forever grateful.

I feel so proud of how far I have come with my business and I think I have the coolest Bridle and bit fitting can around!

Handmade is a term that gets used so freely it’s almost lost its meaning. There’s no clear standard for what truly counts as handmade, especially with something like a bridle. In reality, nearly every bridle involves some level of handwork, but often that simply means different people assembling individual parts along a production line.
For me, handmade means something more traditional and personal. It means one maker shaping every element from start to finish ,cutting, stitching, finishing, and fitting each piece by hand. It’s work that leaves its mark: dye-stained fingers, the occasional cut, sore hands, an occasional trip to a&e and the kind of wear that comes from real craftsmanship.
That effort isn’t just part of the process, it’s part of the product. It’s care, time, and attention built into every stitch. And I hope that dedication can be seen, and felt, in every bridle I make.
