Hanging by a Fred

Prudhoe, N/A, GB • Not Available Employees

Hanging by a Fred was inspired by my father (the original Freddie Matthews) and his lifelong love of climbing. Sadly, he is no longer with us as he died in February 2015 after a short battle with Cancer.Amongst some of the treasures he left behind was a collection of beautiful climbing rope. Not being able to throw away these things that held such fond memories I decided to investigate ways to upcycle them in a creative fashion, to make mementos for loved ones. Seeing the amazing results I could achieve with this, largely unused material, I looked at designing a range of jewellery and unique products. This idea became a plan, the plan became a reality, and HBAF was born.Through Hanging by a Fred I now create an extensive range of items from upcycled retired climbing rope and paracord for him, for her and for the home, as well as for our furry four legged friends. From statement jewellery that really makes an impact, to an ever growing range of Survival gear, that is both fashionable and functional, I sell online, at events and wholesale through third party retailers.If you are looking for truly unique, bespoke gifts for yourself, shop or gallery please get in touch and we can create your collection now:Email: hangingbyafred@hotmail.comWebsite: www.hanginbyafred.co.ukMobile: 07912984444
