Main Services
Created By The Ridleys is a family business built on creativity, craftsmanship, and the belief that the things we buy should feel personal, meaningful, and made to last. What began as a way for Tracy to channel her creativity and make beautiful things by hand has grown into an award-winning British design and manufacturing business. From our workshop in County Durham, we create thoughtful gifts, homeware, accessories, and dog products with character, care, and a sense of occasion. Whether it is a dog collar that becomes part of muddy walks and happy weekends, a hip flask given to a best man on a wedding morning, a personalised gift chosen for someone special, or a piece of homeware that makes a room feel warmer and more personal, our products are designed to become part of real lives and lasting memories.
A love of British tweed and timeless, country-inspired style is at the heart of what we do. We are drawn to materials that feel honest, distinctive, and full of texture, and we take pride in creating products that do not feel mass-produced or disposable. From selecting fabrics and developing designs to cutting, sewing, finishing, and personalising each piece, we care about the small details that make a product feel special. We also understand how meaningful the right gift can be, whether it is chosen for a birthday, wedding, anniversary, Christmas, Father’s Day, a new puppy, or simply to show someone they are appreciated. Free personalisation, thoughtful finishing touches, and friendly service are important to us because we believe the experience should feel as considered as the product itself.
Created By The Ridleys has grown through hard work, determination, constant learning, and a genuine love for making. We began with an eclectic collection of handmade products sold at craft fairs and agricultural shows, gradually learning what customers valued and what made our work stand out. Over time, that developed into a wider collection for humans, hounds, and homes, supported by customers, trade partners, and stockists across the UK and beyond. Although the business has grown, the heart behind it remains unchanged. We are still a small, passionate team committed to making things properly, treating customers kindly, and showing that British-made products can be beautiful, practical, personal, and full of character. Created By The Ridleys is about turning creativity into something people can hold, use, gift, and treasure.
