Burley's

20/10/2026

A great day spent with fellow shopkeepers, brought together by one of our fantastic suppliers for engaging conversation, shared experiences and building brand awareness. A stunning venue at the Nottingham Contemporary.

A walk through the city led me to the window at Waterstones — a wonderful tribute to Nottingham’s most iconic and inspirational shopkeeper, Sir Paul Smith.

A true local legend and a reminder of the creativity, individuality and entrepreneurial spirit that make independent retail so special. 🌈

‘Threads’ most definitely top of my Christmas wish list.

Daphne Pomeranian is the undisputed queen of the accessory catwalk– not that she walks anywhere... (She’s carried, always!) After all, when you’re this fabulous, walkies are strictly optional!

Twirling back into store Lottie Bunny joins Daphne Pomeranian, Selma Sloth, Little Panda & Tumblie Duck and they’re so looking forward to meeting you!

I’m looking forward to crisp, bright mornings of mists & mellow fruitfulness but with the forecast predicting balmy temperatures and a little sunshine, Southwell today the perfect place to spend a Saturday. Combine a visit to the fabulous Southwell Ploughing Match & Show just up the road in Farnsfield with a stroll through Southwell and a fabulous mix of carefully curated shops.

Browse our selection of gorgeous gifts and greetings - the best of weather and best of cheer. If there’s one thing that speaks of the countryside, it’s the Emma Bridgewater ‘Country Icons’ mugs, beautiful mugs that depict autumn and its rich, warm palette. With a nip of Autumn in the air they suit the mood to a tea!

Make this weekend wonderful xx

I feel a spell coming over me!

“With earthly spice and candlelight, your heart shall warm to me outright.”

Rufferty Puppy ‘Wizard’ may not be the most talented magician, but he’s certainly the most enthusiastic!
He’s spent years chasing his dream to conjure up the perfect bone, but his spells rarely go according to plan until this, the one to warm Lucy’s heart! ✨

Introducing the latest arrival from our Jellycat seasonal drop! Stay tuned… plenty more Halloween cuteness on the way!
