What a lovely wee shop - without Jennie & Taco's reviews, I never would have found this place. It'd…read morebeen sitting in my bookmarks for a while and yesterday made for the perfect opportunity to finally visit. As the others have said, it's off the main road in Shawlands but it would take less than 2 minutes to walk there, so it's worth a diversion. It's a sweet gift shop with a focus on sewing stuff too - you can learn how to make your own cushion covers, for example. I was in looking for a little housewarming gift and card for a friend and loved having a nosey around while the woman working offered me helpful suggestions and showed me some of the new stuff they had in. They have a big range of stuff; from jams and fudge, to candles, prints, kids clothes/toys, lovely fabrics and cushions, bunting and some jewellery bits and bobs. I liked how it's all presented and easy to find something nice without too much bother - I ended up just grabbing a card (The Grey Earl batboy card) and a wee tote bag as a present which was under a tenner. Definitely pay this shop a visit next time you're in the area!

It's a nice wee shop which sells locally-made crafts and things. Everything from bags and ornaments to candles and jam (including some red pepper and chilli jam which I had to buy).

This is a lovely little shop in The Avenue which I've been to a couple of times now. Yesterday, I…read morewas looking for a birthday present for my father-in-law so popped in here to see what they had. The front of the shop is a gift shop, and then at the back they have a booze section so it's easy to find what you're looking for. My father-in-law is a rum drinker and sadly on this visit, they were all out of rum. Their selection is mainly whisky so that's totally fine - they do have some bottles of other spirits though, like Pickering's Gin, New Amsterdam Vodka and Sambuca. I can't say much about the prices as I didn't end up buying anything but I like that they have some unusual offerings you might not find elsewhere. So all up, a nice wee shop to pop into if you're looking for a present for a whisky drinker!

I was in the other day looking for something specific which they didn't have, but they do have a lovely range of the Happy Jackson stuff (which always catches my eye!) as well as a nice kids range, cards, gifts etc. This store isn't as big as their Giffnock one so if you're looking for a large range, that one might be worth a visit instead.

Paper Plane is one of them, especially if you're looking for a gift (for yourself, or someone else). There's nice crafting kits, as well as lots of things for kids. A nice range of mugs, jewellery, wedding stationery, books, artwork, candles - typical gift shop supplies. There isn't much that falls into the realm of "tat" which is always a good sign. They had on display a Lisa Donati (formerly Psychopants) tea towel - "You will always find me in the kitchen at parties" which always makes me giggle, so obviously they're stocking local artists which is great to see. I'd recommend you spend a day of your weekend heading to check out some of the delights of Skirving Street and make sure that you leave plenty of time for a nosey around here! As Jennie H mentioned, it probably is on the pricier side but it's worth a look all the same.

A lot of it is a wee bit expensive for me I have bought a few unusual presents for people here. They also do a good range of cards and I use it a lot for that. They stock some nice local things - I have a Shawlands mug I bought here and one year they did Xmas cards by a local artist showing people shopping on Skirving Street in the snow. It's one of the shops that helps make Skirving Street such an interesting place to shop.

What a lovely gift shop! I am still mourning the loss of Pierrot et Coco from the South Side, and…read morethis lovely gem has popped up to rival its goodness. I actually thought it was more art gallery than gift shop so was very pleased when I realised they've managed to combine the two perfectly. The shop looks great from the outside, and if that isn't enough then the window display will definitely lure you in. It's bright, it's colourful and it's all a celebration of our beautiful city (Glasgow, der) which means it gets a whopping 5 stars from me. Stephen O'Neil is a digital artist with images from across Scotland. There's cards, small prints and then framed work so no matter what your budget, you'd be able to find a great gift. In addition to his own stuff there's a great selection of designers on display - Bonny Bling in the jewellery cabinet and Grafika notebooks, for example. Topped off with a welcoming vibe and reasonable prices, I'll can see that I'll be returning here regularly!

His trademark style heavily relies on black and red - if you don't like those colours, don't waste your time coming in here. Otherwise, consider it a classic colour combination, and just go with it! When I popped in a while back, we got chatting with Stephen himself - very friendly guy, knowledgeable and in no way pushy when it came to selling his work. Pricewise, you'll find postcards, coasters and small prints from a few quid, right up to big trifectas, costing hundreds. Most items were pretty affordable. I'll definitely be back soon.

The store is much bigger than the Byres road branch, but doesn't have as much cook ware. This store is big and bright..

I hadn't been to the Silverburn one before and it's bigger than it looks as there's an extra area onto the back. I was looking for something in particular and while they had it, it still wasn't quite right so I didn't buy it (vague-Yelping). I would have loved to treat myself to a present while I was there but managed to restrain myself, but I will probably be back for the Drawing for Foodies book. I always like the range they have at Papyrus and feel like they stock good quality stuff that isn't too expensive. I can see I'll be buying many gifts here in the future.

I actually visited by accident though as I was driving past and noticed it was open, so I popped in for a quick visit. This is a gift shop focussing on selling items made in the Glasgow/central belt area, which I think is a really lovely idea. I am forever buying presents for Aussies back home and it's always nice to be able to get something really local. I had a bit of a browse and saw at least 35 things I would love to own - there's really nice jewellery, mugs, felted animals, tote bags, candles, tea, prints, tea towels, cards and lampshades. There's stuff for babies but not too much stuff (sometimes nice gift shops get overrun with baby stuff!) - bibs etc. I picked up a little iron-on kit (see picture) for £5, there's matching badges to go with it too. Suzi who runs the shop is super sweet and welcoming, and will help you find whatever you need. She mentioned she is going to be hosting small classes (max 6 people at a time) in the shop - crochet, calligraphy, screen printing etc which I think is a great idea.

Their motto is all about selling products created by local people around Glasgow and central Scotland. What a wonderful idea! It's a great wee shop for cards and gifts, there's some lovely hand crafted items. The stock changes all the time which is great, you never know what you'll find! I have a beautiful Glasgow skyline necklace the mr found in here. And the sell ovenbird coffee beans! Which was great to find out :) They also run classes and work shops some evenings, although I've not made it along to one, it looks like a lovely space to work in. And Suzi is lovely! I lost half an hour last time I popped in just browsing and chatting. :) just wish I was about when it's open more often!

Eric N Smith is owned and run by Eric and his wife Yvonne and they are actual, proper, genuine jewelers in that they know everything there is to know about different precious metals and stones. This family travel across the globe to find the best materials to use in their stunning jewelry. As well as selling their own designs, Eric N Smith also stock some top of the range brands such as Faberge, Montblanc, Breitling, Gucci and Bulgari. When I visited the store looking for a unique ring to celebrate my 21st an assistant sat with me for at least an hour while I hummed and hawed over what I wanted. She was extremely knowledgeable and was very mindful of my limited budget of £100. I ended up with a beautiful silver ring in a really unusual shape with a lovely green peridot stone in it. I had picked the metal, the band and the size, shape and colour of the stone for myself, with the help of the assistant, and I am happy to know that no-one else will have a ring exactly like mine. Next time you are in the market for a piece of jewelry for yourself or a loved one consider trying Eric N Smith instead of heading for the usual Links Of London and Pandora type stores. You're guaranteed to get something special which will make a great, unique heirloom someday.
