About Us
Handmade In The North has it's roots in 2014 when it was a small woodworking business under the name of Handmade In Rossendale. In 2019 Handmade In Rossendale was relaunched with a new owner, a host of new products and a stall at Rawtenstall Market, Rossendale, Lancashire. The business has gone from strength to strength, winning business awards and expanding to become Handmade In The North. In October 2022 we opened our first shop in the Grade II Listed Imperial Arcade, Huddersfield. We have a focus on social history, reusing and recycling wherever possible, minimising waste, using natural materials and being plastic free whenever we can. Flowers at Handmade in Huddersfield is our latest project bringing fairly priced, locally sourced flowers to Huddersfield. Our florist, Ruth has decades of experience in floristry. Our flowers have built a reputation for being extremely long lasting and great value. We are pleased to now be able to offer wedding flowers, funeral flowers and event flowers in a pocket friendly, planet friendly way.
