About Above The Clouds Prints & Gifts

Welcome to Above The Clouds Prints & Gifts – a small UK business specialising in regionally inspired illustrated gifts, kitchen textiles and prints. We create meaningful products that celebrate local places, landmarks and everyday life across the North East of England and beyond.

From Newcastle and Sunderland to Washington, County Durham, Northumberland and beyond, our designs are inspired by the places people love and feel connected to. Every piece tells a story – whether it’s a favourite hometown, a memorable holiday spot, or a place close to the heart.

Designed & Printed in the North East

All of our products are designed and printed in the North East of England, using high-quality materials and professional sublimation printing techniques.

With nearly 20 years of experience in print and graphic design, we specialise in creating high-quality illustrated products designed to last.
