We had a day trip to London last week for a Jellycat buying event. We got to see some amazing new Jellies that will be coming this year as well as some favourites. So stay tuned 😉 After that we had lunch and a leg stretch, including spotting a Banksy or two before hopping back on the train.

As a small independent business this time of year is so important for us before the quiet spell in January. Consider shopping small and supporting some independents this year. Every purchase makes a difference but even liking, sharing and commenting helps. ✨

The other day a customer said to me “to be honest I do all my Christmas shopping on Amazon but your shop is so unique I decided to purchase a couple of stocking fillers.”

It left me with mixed feelings but I’m thankful they chose to support us.

We’re open 7 days a week but if you aren’t able to visit us in person our website is always open! We have lots of new products on there for you to peruse. We can also send directly to your giftee! 💖
