Going green!

Our much awaited new paint job is finished and we are enjoying our new green look!

We have had lots of great comments from our customers already and are hoping it will help to attract lots of new customers this festive season as we stock up on gift ideas for the Christmas rush...

We've got lots of these brilliant PostCarden sets by Another Studio for Design in the gallery. Great for those green fingered indoor gardeners! Once opened and unfolded into its garden plot, simply sow the enclosed seeds and add water. In a few days your card will start to grow and will keep for 2 - 3 weeks.
We're currently growing the city version and are eagerly awaiting a garden full of lovely cress.
We've got Allotment, Botanical, City and Winter Wonderland PostCardens and smaller Village MatchCardens. You can see a video of the cress growing on their website here.
