Introducing Our New Collaboration with The Wheat Bag Company
Nov 11, 2026
Two British businesses, one shared passion for beautiful design, traditional craftsmanship and products made to be enjoyed every day.
Here at Made in the Mill, we're delighted to announce an exciting new collaboration with The Wheat Bag Company, a fellow British manufacturer whose values and products are a wonderful fit for our own.
As a small business proudly manufacturing our products in Lancashire, we've always believed in the importance of supporting British craftsmanship. So, when we discovered The Wheat Bag Company and their beautiful collection of British-made home accessories and comforting wheat bags, we knew they would be a perfect addition to our growing range.
From Lancashire to Wiltshire – A Shared Love of British Manufacturing
While we're busy creating our lap trays, noticeboards and home accessories here in Lancashire, The Wheat Bag Company is based in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside.
Founded in 2014 the Wheat Bag Company has established itself as a respected British manufacturer, producing a wonderful selection of products designed to bring warmth, comfort and a little everyday luxury into the home.
Like us, they believe that products should be beautifully made, practical and built around quality materials and thoughtful design.
It's this shared approach that makes our new collaboration such a natural fit.
Expanding Our William Morris Collection
If you're already familiar with Made in the Mill, you'll know how much we love the timeless patterns of William Morris.
From the rich colours of Strawberry Thief to the delicate botanical beauty of Willow Bough, these classic Arts & Crafts designs have long been favourites in our collection.
Now, thanks to our collaboration with The Wheat Bag Company, we're delighted to bring you even more ways to enjoy these beautiful patterns.
Alongside our own handmade William Morris lap trays and fabric noticeboards, we're introducing a lovely new selection of British-made products, including:
-
Microwavable wheat bags – filled with English wheat and available with fragrant lavender or unscented, perfect for a little comforting warmth.
-
Wheat bottles – a wonderfully cosy alternative to traditional hot water bottles.
-
Draught excluders – practical, stylish additions to help keep chilly draughts at bay.
-
Fabric door stops – combining everyday usefulness with beautiful William Morris designs.
-
Accessory pouches – ideal for keeping everyday essentials neatly together.
Whether you're looking to refresh a room, enjoy a little warmth and relaxation or find a thoughtful gift, our expanded collection has something special to offer.
Beautiful British Designs, Made for Everyday Living
One of the things we particularly love about William Morris designs is how effortlessly they fit into both traditional and contemporary homes.
His intricate botanical patterns and rich colours are just as appealing today as they were over a century ago.
And while these designs are undeniably beautiful, we believe they should be enjoyed rather than simply admired.
A lap tray for a relaxing breakfast in bed, a comforting wheat bag on a chilly evening, a decorative door stop or a draught excluder that adds a finishing touch to your room – these are practical products that bring a little beauty into everyday life.
You can even mix and match coordinating William Morris designs to create a lovely collection of accessories for your home.
Supporting British Businesses Matters
At Made in the Mill, being British-made is much more than a label.
We're proud of our Lancashire manufacturing roots and the care that goes into the products we create. We also know how important it is to support other independent British businesses that share our commitment to quality.
By working with The Wheat Bag Company, we're able to offer our customers a wider choice of beautiful products while continuing to champion manufacturing here in the UK.
It's a partnership we're genuinely excited about, and we hope you'll love the new additions as much as we do.
