✨ EVA Awards 2026 ✨

Being a finalist in the Young Entrepreneur category was a huge win in itself. To be in a room at Blackpool Winter Gardens surrounded by hundreds of incredibly successful, million-pound women-founded businesses was a real honour. 🥂

Although I didn’t take home the award this time, the whole evening was incredible, from walking the red carpet, to the food, entertainment and celebrating alongside so many inspiring women.

I’m incredibly proud to have made it this far, and even more motivated to keep building, growing and seeing where this journey takes me. 🤍

Maybe we try again next year…? 👀🏆

It’s the last day to vote!!! ❤️

✨ The final stage of the EVA’s Awards journey is here… it’s voting time! ✨

A couple of weeks ago, I had the privilege of attending my zoom finalist interview, and what an incredible experience it was. Meeting the judges and reflecting on how far Rise N Design has come reminded me just how much this journey means.

Now, it’s over to you.

If you’ve supported me, purchased from my small business, or simply love what I create, I would be so grateful if you could take a moment to vote for me in the ‘Young Entrepreneur’ Category, just scroll down and look for ‘Amy Finch - Rise n Design’

Every single vote means the world and helps celebrate not only my journey, but small businesses and women in business across the UK.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Rise N Design from the very beginning, your encouragement is the reason I’m here today. 🫶

✨ FINALIST! ✨

I’m absolutely thrilled to share that I’m a finalist in both the Creative Business and Product Business categories at the Female Business Network Awards 2026!

Looking back at my awards journey makes this one feel even more special…

🏆 2022: Overall Business Winner
🥈 2023: Runner Up – Young Entrepreneur
✨ 2026: Finalist – Creative Business & Product Business

To have my business recognised again, years later, in not just one but two categories, is something I’m incredibly proud of. So much has changed, grown and evolved since 2022, and reaching this point feels like such a huge achievement.

Now, I’m keeping everything crossed that 2026 could be the year I take home the win in a different category. 🤞🏼

It would genuinely mean the world to me.

The awards ceremony takes place on Thursday 15th October at the Victoria & Albert Marriott Hotel in Manchester, and I can’t wait to celebrate with so many incredible female business owners. 🥂✨

Here’s to believing in your business, continuing to grow, and seeing where the journey takes you. 💫

Wish me luck🤞🏼

Home & Gift Buyers’ Festival Harrogate 2026… over and out! ✨

Another amazing four days at our favourite trade show of the year. It’s been fantastic making new retail connections, welcoming new stockists, taking orders and reorders, meeting lovely new stand neighbours, and catching up with familiar faces.

Now the real work begins. Follow-ups, packing orders, and getting back into the workshop making your beautiful orders now that the UK has finally cooled down!

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our stand. We can’t wait to work with you.
