SORRY FOR THE LONG POST..

Please remember Bridles, Buttons and Breeches is not a big company....it's just me in my little workshop, working hard to meet your needs alongside my own work and family life, despite the ever growing supplier and pricing challenges.

Being self employed, especially as a sole trader, is not for the faint of heart.....it takes years of training and many satisfied clients to build a good reputation and I am always proud when I see my customers recommending me to others.

Thank you to my loyal customers, some of which I now call friends, for the support they give to my little business. Every job you trust me with and every positive review reminds me why I have dedicated so much of my time training, working hard and developing the skills to be able to provide a bespoke service, in a timely manner, at a competitive price.

I pride myself on doing a good job, giving sound advice and I always want my customers to be happy with the end result. This approach has worked well and my ever growing client base is proof that my dedication, honesty and workmanship is appreciated..... but I guess I was naive to think every single person would value my opinion and experience in the same way.

I was recently pursued, through the court, by a client who wanted a full refund.....after they went against my advice and insisted I altered my original work to their requirements. The whole process has been awful, causing stress, anxiety and uncertainty BUT after months of submitting evidence and a 2 hour court appearance the judge dismissed the claim against me. I had done the original job asked of me, charged a fair price and had been paid willingly. The alteration, against my better judgement, was done at NO cost to the customer and I had advised what the implications of the changes would be.

I won't let this one incident get me down because it's true what they say....everyone you meet can either be a blessing or a lesson.....it's good to keep learning!

I love it when I have customers in with a good story to tell. 😊 A girl rang & asked if I could alter a leather skirt & top? when she dropped them off she told me she was from Germany & wanted her 👵 grandmother's outfit altered by quite a bit 7cms off the waist & even more off the top, to fit her! Wow! not many young ladies would wear their grandmother's clothes, I thought 🤔 But when she showed me & told me she would be wearing it at the Lindisfarne Festival & it all made perfect sense .. Made in Germany going by the labels. Beautiful outfit 😍

Please read.
Thank you!

As a small, Sole Trader Business, it's very difficult to compete with larger companies & businesses, regarding advertising, purchasing materials etc, Its getting even harder with Facebook as posts are often not reaching the intended audience.
I would really appreciate it if my friends, followers & customers could help my small business.

I would really appreciate it if you could...

This lady is so lush 😍
I've done other jobs for her in the past, but this 1 was a bit of a scary one! She's had this beautiful Italian leather jacket hanging in her wardrobe for 7 (yes that's 7 years) & never been able to wear it, as its always been too small.
It needed to be at least 6" wider to fit. So here she is, finally able to wear it.
The smile on her face says it all 😀 I decided the only way to do it, was to add in a panel down the front, & we both agreed soft brown goat leather would work! Here's the result. 😬👍

Before & after, it's been a while! Neglected leather in need of some tlc. Doesn't always have to be saddlery 🙂
