Yes, let's! With the stall looking like ten children's parties crammed into one tiny space, it…read morereally is a visual marvel. Located in the lower section of Leeds Kirkgate Market, I found Let's Party so tacky, that it charmed me. They stock a huge range of party decoration paraphernalia. From banners for every occasion, to Hawaiian flower garlands and afro wigs; from oversized birthday badges to overly sentimental cuddly toys. And the balloons, oh the balloons! With so many helium filled specimens, the stall is in genuine danger of drifting up into the ether. The customer really is spoilt for choice. There was even one which read 'Will you marry me?' upon it, for any budding lotharios that wish to receive a deafening refusal at such a shoddy way to pledge allegiance to a loved one for all eternity. I was strangely mesmerised by a balloon in the shape of a disco ball, and am seriously considering basing an entire party theme around its magnificence. Let's Party caters for all kinds of events, with their website selling even more items. With plenty of pessimism and pain in this world, I salute you, Let's Party, and back your quest to inject some fun into people's lives.

Lidgett hill stationers is situated within a small row of shops just approaching the main shopping…read morearea of Pudsey. Being only a small town I am sure that many make use of this handy stationers. It's always nicer to go indie than big chain, and there is a Cartridge World about 10 minutes or so away, but I would choose Lidgett Hill every time. Why? The extra mile an indie store will always go to for their customers, there's always the personal touch! It's got all the usual things that you would hope for in a stationers, hoards of pens and such, papers of all varieties, folders and office supplies - no stone unturned they've pretty much covered everything. However, as you'll notice by their notices, they do offer more than the things you might expect as well! Given our recent bout of snow, which did seem relentless, they have compiled a special collection of 'snow day activities' for the children stuck at home during the impossible snow days! I realise that it's a bit of cheeky marketing, but it was pretty cute and innovative! Essentially, these kits were made up of colouring books, crayons, puzzles and so on. Still, better than the idiot box, right? All in all, it's a ok with me!

Having visited many craft shops, I have to say, I wasn't sure what to make of Lidget Hill…read moreStationers. I think I've mentioned before what a fan on stationary I am. This place was a bit of a mixed bag. There are 2 aisles to the shop, (the divider dedicated to dated greetings cards), On the left, there is everything you'd expect from a stationers: pens, pencils, pads of paper, folders and display folders, pencil cases selotape etc. On the right of the counter , tucked in the corner is acryllics, sketch pads and paintbrushes. I have to be honest, and say that I thought their arts materials were pretty overpriced. The quality of the paint was a mid-range brand, but I felt they were asking for much more than it is worth, and indeed is priced in competing city centre shops and also student unions. They do have an interesting supply of goods though. They sell many different childrens colouring books, party bags, stamps, stickers of all sorts, and card making kits, but I did get a niggling feeling that perhaps the local community was not making the most of its stationers, but instead, opting for cheaper well-known establishments.
