Heidi Creates an Extra Special Touch in Ransom Hall

Extra Special Touch is an artisan embroidery and sewing studio making bespoke wedding and bridal accessories. They specialise in personal embroidered gifts, such as wedding handkerchief, monogram napkins and personalised garters.

Heidi launched Extra Special Touch in 2009, and has been working from her home studio for the last nine years. As the business has outgrown her original space Ransom Wood was the obvious choice for her first commercial studio.

Heidi says “I had been looking for a while to move into a studio space and out of my home studio. Ransom Wood is only a few miles away from home and I love that it is set in the middle of the woods and has such a wonderful feel to the business park. I wanted somewhere to have a working studio space as we make all of our personalised items to order with our embroidery and sewing machines. But I also wanted a welcoming setting so brides could visit us (by appointment only) and have a look at our display of our bespoke wedding and bridal gifts.”

Extra Special touch works with traditional Nottingham Lace, made only a few miles down the road in the last Nottingham lace factory in Ilkeston. They hand make Nottingham Lace handkerchief and garters which can all be personalised by Heidi with names, wedding dates or short messages.

They can also cater for corporate events and are able to embroider your own business brand logo onto napkins and handkerchiefs for special events.

All items are sold via their web site www.extraspecialtouch.co.uk

    This is such a beautiful setting for an office. Lovely & peaceful and the Ransomwood team are excellent! The maintenance team are always around if needed, great internet facilities and a fabulous café onsite too. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for premises in the area.

    Still love to walk around. I used to live in the big house at the top of the drive, it was Oak House then and I nursed at Ransom Hospital , Byron Ward which was on the left side of Ransom Hall car park. Oak House used to be Sisters accommodation. I think the main chef lived upstairs when I lived there and just me downstairs mostly. I loved it but had to keep my kitchen door closed because of the squirrels. Loved looking down the drive out of my bedroom and lounge windows, beautiful in Autumn and when it snowed, I worked at Ransom Hospital until it closed in 1987. Wonder why Oak House was later named Ash House? Lovely dining at Forever Green in the grounds whilst I reminisce.
