Our "Block" products promote minimal design, but we believe that their products have maximum inpact!!

As "Block" states, they give you a "Life in Colour". So many ideas to introduce colour to your life!!

Wonderful noticeboards, with a range of coloured pegs, will get the most untidy person organised! They look brilliant in a contemporary workspace or office.

Perpetual calendars are a fabulous addition to your desk. So vibrant, great design and sturdy construction too, as they are made of steel! And moving the magnets to the desired position each morning seems to focus you on the day ahead. Once you have one it can be used...

As our online store increases in size, we thought, maybe a gift department for all those gorgeous dogs out there, many of which we have met on our travels.

Luckily we discovered a wonderful little company called "Sweet William", named after their handsome dog of course, and decided to stock their delightful Dog ID Tags.

We began selling just six designs, and now have around seventeen different breeds of dog, depicted on solid, high quality silver-plated brass tags.

Not only that, but we also have a selection of humerous tags too! These have short phrases on them, and it is fun to match the dog (or owner) to the slogan!!

Suddenly summer seems a distant memory.  Time to find those woolly jumpers again!

However ,we have been enjoying some glorious autumnal days this week. Bright blue cloudless skies, sparkling, dazzling sunshine, a freshness in the air.  Just a bit chilly at each end of the day!

I love the changing colours of the leaves - vibrant yellow, rusty orange, deep red, rich burgundy and burnished golden tones. Such a colourful season.

Autumn also means that I must renew the stock and search for new products too. The lazy, hazy, crazy summer holidays are over and I  must concentrate on Ruffld once again!!

So please take a look every now...

Ruffld had an extremely hectic weekend making the most of the glorious sunshine. Just so lucky with the weather compared to last weekend, when it rained and poured down in torrents!

We were in a fantastic marquee at the Toot Hill Country Show on Saturday, which was a resounding success. So much to see and do, but we stll had lots of visitors to our stall, including practically every breed of dog you can imagine! They all loved our" Sweet William" Dog Tags and Bowls.

On Sunday we were off again, this time to a Family Fun Day in Epping. Another fantastic turnout. We met so many people, and received such uplifting comments about...

What a problem - finding a gift for Dad on Father's Day.

WELL, we may have the answer!

Take a look at our collection of Gorgeous Gifts for Men!

One idea - how about a Perpetual Calendar by "Block"? These look so stylish and would be a welcome addition to your Dad's desk. Choose your calendar in Grey, Blue or funky Orange.  Just a bit different!

Make Father's Day extra special this year, and show your Dad how much he means to you.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.

Fairly recently we discovered some fabulous products designed by Giddy Sprite. The designs are both simple and unique.

The coasters and clocks we have chosen to add to our site feature brilliant images on strong coloured backgrounds, and certainly make a statement.

The coasters and clocks are hand-printed in the Giddy Sprite studio in Devon.  Like us they are passionate about UK made products.

Pusskin, the white cat design, was inspired by their very own cat. She was a rescued cat and came from the Axhayes Cats Protection League Shelter.  She lives very happily at the Giddy HQ.  Pusskin has also been joined by Tomsk, a black cat....
