I used to go to it to buy my…read moremum blue glass items for christmas and birthdays and this was one of the only places to get them at a reasonable price. Now after all these years my kids go here to buy me presents for bithdays and christmas shows how times have changed but some things just stay the same. Obviously the items for sale have moved on with the times, they just sell quirky pieces that are not the same as everywhere else. They are a much more personal present something a little different. The staff are friendly and helpfull and will wrap items if you need them done too. There are a couple of steps in the shop but if you have a buggy they jump to help before you could even think of asking. A great place to buy that extra speacial gift.

This Birthdays card shop is in the high street of Ipswich town centre. The shop is a bit baddly…read morelaid out, it dosn't really consider people with buggy's or wheelchairs. the cards are up the centre and sides of the shop. There is a wide range of cards, wrapping paper, badges and balloons available. Half way through the store are some steps which again are not ideal, especially when the staff do not help you, so when you have lugged the buggy up them, you cant get round to both sides before having to go down and back up the other side again. So it may have a good choice but with such a bad design layout I would rather go to another card shop and just forget this one all together.

It's packed full of lovely interesting bits from crystals to wooden signs, to jewellery. The only down point is the lack of parking, but then you can reward yourself after taking the short walk up the hill with a pressie for yourself from the shop!

The staff are very friendly and you dont feel pressured into buying something quickly, they give you the time to browse at you own will. When you first see the items for sale you would assume they were very expensive but it is actually the complete opposite, and you will be surprised how cheap the items are. This is certainly a place to go to get those more unusual christmas gifts
