craftyhunnypie Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Hi everyone! I am totally exhausted after a day out shopping with mum in Shrewsbury. My favourite bits of the day were Lakeland Plastics - bought a chocolate eclair bakiing tin & I also loved the QVC shop ( yes the same as the shopping channel on tv). It's in one of the centres on the bottom floor and it has loads of craft stuff. Kits by Dawn Bibby, Rubber Stamps, decoupage, Disney card kits, s"Ooops, word censored!"booking kits etc etc. Anyway near the till I noticed a basket with little boxes in. I picked one up and bought it for £6.99. It's a lace & glitter card kit & it's excellent. It's basically sticky backed card, which you peel the cover off, lay the lace on, sprinkle glitter & peel off the lace. Very effective on cards! Just looks like glittery lace! I have glitter everywhere now! All over my hands, my face, even in the garden! Ever heard of glitter flowers???? ANyway, it's worth a look in the QVC shop at Shrewsbury. There is also one at Birchwood shopping centre @ Birchwood. But Shrewsbury is much better! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted August 26, 2007 Author Share Posted August 26, 2007 Yes, I love Shewsbury - we once went on a ghost walk there one evning. Very eye opening! I wouldn't want to get locked in WHSmiths at night! Erm - Vinegar Hill? Where abouts is that? We did go in loads of shops down the back roads. We avoided the Parade this time, as last time we thought what a load of rubbish it was. Most shops closed and half of the units were empty. There was one nice shop we went in down near lakeland. A nice gift shop inside a crooked Tudor style house. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted August 27, 2007 Author Share Posted August 27, 2007 Hiya - I think we missed the vinegar hill shop. Will have to look next time I go shopping there. I'm off to Wolverhampton next weekend shopping! I love shopping! I'm in Sunny Sandbach, except it's not too sunny at the moment. I haven't got MSN, I use google talk as MSN is too public.

craftyhunnypie Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 Been Shrewsbury today again & the QVC shop was full of craft stuff! I bought loads of stuff for making Christmas cards, rubber stamps, stickers, card blanks etc etc. Excellent & real bargains too! There is also a QVC shop at Birchwood Shopping Centre - not far from Ikea Warrington! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
