Tour of the shop...Part one...

Many of you have never seen inside our studio shop, so I am going to spend a few days giving you the grand tour.

this table is just inside the doors and holds our collection of trunks and cases.

                                                   






Then we have the "bits n bobs" shelves

holding my favourites...Moleskine Journals

Luscious fat quarters


And the infamous pick n mix shelves






The view as you walk in the shop





And then we are going to go down the first wall

Stampers Anonymous...Tim Holtz




Idea-ology





Art Parts


Claudine Helmuth


Dyan's downloads


Dylusions



Wendy Vecchi




Essentials from Ranger




Phew that's the first wall done

Enjoy xx

Ooh wish I lived closer. I would like to order a set each of those fat quarters on the first material picture. They are not on line. What do I ask for if I call the shop. Fabulous tour, Tracy Evans x. Email tracy@craft-addicts.co.uk.

Wow, Dyan. Only one word for your shop - scrumpcious! I could spnd weeks there. Not to panic - live in Seattle. How far timewise are you from London? Have to visit my Aunt in Amsterdam in the next 6 months and if I flew over London with a 1-night stop it would be so fun to see all this live. Meanwhile, totally enjoying the tour. Thanks. (Am eagerly awaitng my order of your acrylics.)

Kat said...

I am loving your tour,
but it makes me sad because
I feel i'm missing out on such a fab shop, not to mention such cool classes & workshops,
if I lived closer I would definately be an AFTH stalker (lol)
have a grate day,
Kat.

The shop looks wonderful and somewhere I could spend many comfortable hours.

Caroline said...

wow! I wished I loved closer you have such a fab selection of goodies! But on the other hand, I'm glad I dont live near you as 1) I would never be out of your shop, and 2) I'd be broke within a few days becasue I would have to buy at least 1 of EVERYTHING! :)
