We currently stock thousands of products including cross-stitch, models, scrap booking and card making materials, art supplies, stamping, jewellery making supplies, and much more. We stock products from a wide variety of suppliers including DMC, Anchor, Docrafts, Pergamano, Airfix, Tamiya, Revel and Italeri - just to name a few.

We also hold regular papercrafting demonstrations to help give you ideas and advice on some of our new products. Dates for our demonstrations can be found on our website.

Also on our website you will find our online shop & our blog - full of inspirational ideas for your crafting and keeping you up to date with new products available in store.

In store we offer a number of services including:

PICTURE FRAMING
We have a large selection of frames and mounts available. All our frames are made to order to ensure they fit your requirements perfectly. We frame most things from cross-stitch, tapestries, prints, maps, memorabilia, football shirts, flowers and much more. We also make back boxes to fit frames for framing 3d items. Our staff are on hand to provide advice and help to choose a frame that is perfect for you.

DESIGN A RIBBON
Our personalised ribbon printing service - add your own choice or words & images to ribbons, sashes, banners & wedding car ribbons. See www.designaribbon.com for more information.

CROSS-STITCH CONVERSION
We provide a cross-stitch conversion service in which we can take an image and covert it to a cross-stitch chart for you. This comes complete with the chart and threads list. We can provide a list for both DMC and Anchor stranded cottons.

ORDER SERVICE
We aim to specialise in getting our customers what they really need which means if we do not stock a specific product we will try and order it specially for you.
