About Mary & Teds
From Maids to Pups

From Maids to pups…

I’ve always loved interior design and soft furnishings, and this led to establishing Newlyn Maids in 2020. The business began from the kitchen table in our Newlyn family home, supported by my husband Ed and my two young maids, Faye and Beau. It’s been a really exciting four years, as we launched the online business then opened our lovely shop in St Ives.

Newlyn Maids wasn’t the only thing that happened to us that year. In January 2020, Teddy scampered into our lives… As a proud new pup parent, I increasingly found myself drawn to dog-themed products – and what’s more, my customers loved them, too!

I’ve gradually expanded our pet-inspired collections and that’s how Newlyn Maids became Mary & Ted, lifestyle products and gifts for dog lovers. We share our lives and home with two cats as well as Ted, and we wouldn’t want to leave out. If you’re a cat mum or dad, we have plenty of pawsome cat-themed gifts.

We’re also working on bespoke new ranges, designed by me and on sale only from us. I have a background in art and design, and I’m so enjoying coming up with unique new ideas for Mary & Ted.
