"Gifts To Make You Smile"

So happy Wednesday to you all!  The weather is rubbish I know but hopefully it will brighten up for the Easter weekend.  So, here are a few pictures of our stand at the Lowther Castle & Gardens Spring Fair 

last weekend.  As it was soooooooooo wet and windy they very kindly decided to let us set up inside the castle rather than outside - thank goodness I think we might have blown away!   As you can see we had plenty of our fab products on offer and despite the weather there was a good turn out.

If you didn't make it but want to check out our products then it is really easy, go to our website at www.ruddickgardengifts.co.uk 
and have a browse around.  We have something for everyone whether it is bird feeders, garden tools, wind spinners or candles, I'm sure we will have something for all.  

"Gifts To Make You Smile"

Well, we made it to the end of another exhausting week - I hope you have all had a happy time!  So the weekend is nearly upon us and for Ruddick Garden Gifts that means no let up, another busy one with our stand at the Lowther Castle & Garden Fair.  Check it out at http://www.lowthercastle.org/garden-fair

Goooooooood Morning everyone and happy Sunday.  Thought I would share this lovely picture of spring crocus just to give us all hope that better weather is just around the corner. It wont be long before we can all get out and busy in the garden.  With that in mind I wanted to show you a couple of our fabulous hand tools.

This is our Radius Trowel which has been ergonomically designed for comfort.  The aluminium blade is surprisingly light yet remarkably strong. This trowel is priced at £12.99.

http://www.ruddickgardengifts.co.uk/radius-garden-trowel.html






Here we have the Radius Weeder again featuring the patented ergonomic grip handle which provides more leverage with less wrist stress.  The aluminium blade has a sharp tip and serrated edges for weeding.  Great for popping out deeply rooted weeds!  Priced at £12.99.
http://www.ruddickgardengifts.co.uk/radius-garden-weeder.html

And now for the science bit - the ergonomically designed handle sets your wrist and hands in a natural, neutral position, allowing you to garden longer and without injury or strain. Ideal for gardeners who have limited natural gripping strength, arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome.  The tools feature poly fibre soft grip handles and aluminium blades making them much easier and lighter to work with.  So why not pop on over to our website at www.ruddickgardengifts.co.uk and have a look at our tools range today.

So we had a fantastic weekend at the Cumbria Life Home & Garden Show.  We met some really lovely people and James even got to have his photo taken with Sophie Robinson & Daniel Hopwood from BBC2 Great Interior Design Challenge.  That made his day!!!



Here are a couple of pictures of our stand.  The most popular items were our  Soft n Care range of gloves and also our ergonomically designed Radius Tools.  But some of our new products went really well too.  The Bucket Ina Bag had a lot of interest as did our beautiful Verti Plants.

We fixed the Verti Plants to an old piece of trellis to show them off and James planted them up with heathers and primulas.  I think they look great!  At the bottom of the trellis is another one of our new products waiting to go on the website - our sheep outdoor cushion.  So hopefully after the success of this show we will be invited back to do one next year.  In the meantime I will let you know if we are going to any other local shows and maybe you could pop along and say hello.  If you can't make it though don't worry just head on over to our website at www.ruddickgardengifts.co.uk and check out our great gift ideas for the garden and home!!!!
