So yet again we have fake review we are the first and only review Alice cooper left us .

It’s really disheartening especially as we know where these reviews are coming from .

We have been disappointed to not be able to open currently , for repairs that still haven’t been done . Which we have no control over ! And we still dont know when this will be however we planned to do other stalls in the meantime

Our T-shirts are inclusive in size and we always ordered one of each side in each design which when it’s gone it’s gone and we would get a new design , this was to ensure that we always had different stock and you wouldn’t see 20 people in the same Alice cooper T-shirt .it did mean however popular sizes would sell out first .

It’s heartbreaking for us in terms of the workshops especially when those that have been to one know that we started to run them differently and we did them as custom workshop so they took longer but helped you customise your spell jar , charm bag etc for your particular needs.

The people behind reviews have caused nothing but stress and grief and affected our mental and physical health .

We hope that one day they learn to love themselves better so that they can be kinder to others and spread kindness rather than hatred 😭

Anyway little rant over , we will continue to keep pushing through the negativity you’ll you send us and we really hope you , your business and family a happy future a
