We are a cardmaking, scrapbooking, rubber stamping and altered art shop based in Upminster, Essex.
Our shop is full of fantastic products, but still has a spacious feel about it ... with plenty of room for wheelchairs and buggies.
We pride ourselves on our customer service with friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff (who are all crafters themselves!). However, if you aren't able to come and visit us in person, then why not check out our website, where you can order your stash online (see website link above).
Some of the ranges we stock include Basic Grey, Crate Paper, Heidi Grace, KI Memories, Daisy D's, Karen Foster, My Minds Eye, Ranger, Tim Holtz Ideaology, 7 Gypsies, Ten Seconds Studio, Prima Flowers, Maya Road, We Are Memory Keepers, Daisy Bucket, Cuttlebug, Sizzix, Buzzcraft, Lasting Impressions, Technique Tuesday, Paperartsy, Blonde Moments, Stamp Tapestry, Pinecone Press, Doodlebug, Zutter Bind It All, Colorbok Albums ... and lots more ... including over 400 colours of Bazzill cardstock.
We offer a wide range of workshops for children and adults. Our workshops are suitable for all levels of ability and are available on weekdays and at the weekend. We also offer parties for all ages, and an adult craft club ("crop") twice a week.
We are open six days a week (closed on Tuesdays). Our normal opening hours are 9.30am-5.30pm, except on Sundays when we are open 10am-2pm.
We offer a loyalty card scheme for all our customers. Every £5 you spend will earn you one stamp in your loyalty card. When the card is full you can exchange it for £20 of products/workshops.
We send out an email newsletter once a month, which keeps our customers informed of what new products have arrived and any special offers that are available. We also have a blog which is updated every week with a new project for you to try at home).

Turn left into St Mary's Lane.
You'll find us opposite Somerfields Supermarket.
If driving from the M25, at Junction 29 take the A127 (signposted Romford/London), and then take the first main slip road (signposted Upminster). At the end of the slip road turn left into Hall Lane, and follow this road until you reach the crossroads at the centre of Upminster.
