MY BIO
Pebble Grey was born in 2008, during Director Helena Sheldrake’s summer holiday. Having finished college Helena wanted to earn some money to go away with her boyfriend before starting university. She began to sell bathroom mirrors via eBay and quickly got the bug!
She loved the thrill of buying and selling so much that she postponed university for a year in order to build up a reserve of money to see her through uni life.
After a research trip to China with her then boyfriend (now husband) Mike, Director of kitchen lighting company Sensio, Helena officially registered Pebble Grey in late 2008. By February 2010 Helena had employed her first member of staff.
Five years on and she has built a team of 10 employees (and counting). Pebble Grey is proud to have worked with industry leading and national brands such as Ideal Home, Grand Designs and House to Home.
