Our Story
Hi there! I'm Sophia, and my journey with Hound and Blossom began while recovering from Covid-19 in late 2021. During that time, I discovered a passion for creating unique dog tags, jewellery, and bookmarks, using pressed flowers and resin. This newfound love inspired the name of our business, Hound&Blossom. Now, a year later – and with help from Mum, Dad and the encouragement of our dog-loving community, H&B has flourished into a thriving small business. We take pride in offering a range of on-trend, hand-crafted essentials for both dogs and their humans.
Hand-crafted with love
I absolutely love all things creative, and the process of gathering fallen flowers from our garden, pressing them, and preserving them in our hand-crafted pieces brings me immense joy.
Located in the picturesque English countryside near Wells, the smallest and fairest city in Britain, we are deeply connected to nature and highly aware of the challenges it faces. Therefore, we are dedicated to creating hand-crafted, eco-friendly essentials for both hounds and homes that not only look great but feel good, all while being as kind to the planet as possible.
Protecting the environment
Reducing our impact on the world around us is a core value we hold dear. To achieve this, we prioritise the use of recycled, repurposed, and natural fabrics in our creations. Many of our products are not only stylish and durable but also sustainable. Everything we offer is meticulously designed in-house, ensuring that each item is both beautiful and useful. We carefully hand-pick fabrics and pour our love and attention into crafting each piece.
The future is bright…it’s a mother and daughter partnership!
Today, H&B is very much a mother and daughter partnership. We have listened closely to our dog-loving community and our cherished H&B friends, allowing us to expand our offering to meet their needs. So, in addition to our unique collar ID jewellery, we now offer a small and stylish collection of hand-crafted dog leads, collars, beds, coats, and dog walking bags. Every item is still thoughtfully designed and crafted to seamlessly blend style and functionality.
