Our lovely Christmas Tree fairy

The lovely little lady who sits atop our Christmas Tree would like to say hello. We’re not sure if she’s an angel or a fairy, but either way, she’s certainly a looker and doing a splendid job of making the Ruby Red tree look gorgeous.

Ruby Red discovers The Laundrettes

We’re a talented bunch at Ruby Red. Not only are we great at making gorgeously organic bath and body stuff with our own fair hands, but there’s a few (wannabe) singers amongst us too.
