A case study with Really Handmade Crafts
At BlankKeyrings of Bamber Bridge we are proud to be the official supplier of Coasters, Keyrings and Mouse Mats to Really Handmade Crafts in Le Bourg Grand Brassac, France, owned by Suzie Pearson.
Fund raising for animal charities
Suzie creates bespoke handmade products to sell and raise money for local animal charities. She uses a range of mixed media including punch cartoons, encaustic wax, iris folding, zentangle, floral stamp designs, abstract alcohol ink and Celtic knots.
She regularly supports Brantôme Police Horses, a local old dogs hospice, a French charity which sterilise feral cats and the French guide dogs for the blind association by donating all the raw materials and her time to the charities. Every centime people donate by purchasing her coasters goes directly to helping the animals.
Unique Limited-Edition Gifts
Suzie believed that there wasn’t anything like our coasters available in rural France. She was introduced to us by a friend and she immediately knew that she could use them. Suzie needed generous insert depth that can accommodate a range of mixed media artwork. She also plans to use our glass coasters to create a more premium product.
She didn’t realise that there was anyone who could provide her with the lower quantities that she required. The individually designed coasters have become a huge success.
Wonderful feedback
“You are brilliant! I deal with many small firms: the craft industry is stuffed full of tiny enterprises. Many of them are very good, dedicated and helpful but you are prepared to deal with such tiny orders and make me feel just as valued as the big boys. The quality of your products is always of the highest. From the speed of service, the careful packaging and the personal touch, you are really superb in every department.”
