What a delightful establishment this is! I might even go as far as to say delectable!…read more Nook & Cranny stocks a veritable cornucopia of gorgeous gifts, stationery and homewares, all utterly charming. The first thing that caught my eye (and drew me in from my journey up Bold Street) were the beautiful Cable & Cotton fairy lights displayed in the window - these stunning textured, multi coloured, orb fairy lights are just magical and certainly set the scene for the rest of the shop. There is so much to gaze or chuckle at and drool over in Nook & Cranny that I just wouldn't know where to start telling you all about it but other highlights include the bear paw oven mitts, the 'My Cuppa Tea' colour matching guide mug and the Knit Your Own Zoo kit. I was in seventh heaven. Imagine my delight when I discovered that the back of the shop (which used to be storage space) has now been turned into a cosy little cafe called Quills & Coffee. Sadly I couldn't stay to sample any of the beautiful looking cakes but I vowed there and then to visit again as soon as possible. Yet more delight...Nook & Cranny and Quills & Coffee put on occasional film screenings at the back of the store!! The next one is American Beauty on Saturday 28th March at 7pm - tickets are £10 and include free drinks and pizza and available from www.nookandcrannyshop.co.uk. Magic

This is a fantastic independent biz that I ventured into when in Liverpool a couple of weeks back…read more We actually held an event in the back part of the business and I didn't realise it existed until Liverpool CA Gemma A introduced me to it - but the space is really cavernous and it was great to temporarily see Quills coffee set up in the back. Very very cool cards and gifts throughout, I was especially impressed with the awesome range of band music posters in the back - everything from Queens of the stone age to classic hiphop ones - really worth a look if you're nearby and fancy some colourful artwork to brighten up your walls. Very friendly staff, they hopefully will do well in this prime location in Liverpool.

Gould's has recently moved house, it's now in the old Woolworths building as opposed to it's…read moreoriginal location round the corner. It's great to see that Gould's is still going with the likes of Ryman and Staples popping up all over the country. But they deserve it, they're great little stationers and as long as I can remember they've been incredibly helpful in every aspect of what they do. I mean this is the place you'd go as a kid to get you're Iron Brew pencil case, as a teenager to get your tip ex, as a uni student to get your folders and then as an adult to get your pens and pads for all the things you start to forget. They really are a great little shop and I would thoroughly recommend them. They sell everything stationary related, including canvasses for the budding artist in you!

I concur with the other reviewers, since they moved to larger premises (Old Woolworths) the carry…read morean even bigger range, and you hardly ever fail to find what you wanted. As harumscarum has said its easier to park in May Rd, Mount Rd or Puddydale Car Park, but they are only a 5 minutes away, and theres always space.

At last, a decent card shop in Colwyn Bay. Card Outlet is ok but usually lacks choice, W.H. Smith…read moreis overpriced so I'm very pleased to see the new Card Factory shop open for business. The shop sells a range of cards, mugs and other small gifts for birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas etc and pretty much everything is very good value for money. The items look more expensive than they actually are so the person receiving the card will think you've spent more than you have :-). Definitely worth a look if you know someone with a birthday coming up.
