This is a quaint little shop on Clarkston Road. It's dedicated to - you've guessed it - creations…read moreof fabric. Thus, meaning, of course, that they have an array of fabric and fabric decorations. This allows you to buy any quantity of fabric and make your own wonderful creations or simply have a browse through their pre-made stuff and instantly pick up something pretty. All the items are fairly decently priced and clearly displayed. Whilst, the staff are extremely welcoming and offer excellent personal customer service, Great little place for all art and craft lovers and DIY decorators alike.

As Laura has mentioned this little shop stocks a whole host of various different fabrics so you can…read moreput your own stamp on your home. I popped in here a few years ago with my friend who's a whiz at making things, she had some old tatty cushions that she wanted to spruce up and rather than throw them out she came here for some fabric. The shop owner was friendly and she got a really pretty pink and cream swirly design and it was a problem that she wasn't buying rolls and rolls of it, the shop owner was happy to cut as much as she needed. I'm not sure what the going rate for fabrics are, I'm a bit ignorant when it comes to that but the price seemed very reasonable for the amount she got and the cushions look great! They have loads of different designs to sift through and the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, it has that really nice crafty/hobby shop feel too it which will now doubt give you some inspiration for your fabric-related project.

I have been to Princes Square Shopping Centre many times but it was only recently that I noticed…read moreDwell existed! I had never even heard of the company before! I popped in for a little look around and was very pleasantly surprised. Dwell sells all sorts of home wear from big furniture items like sofas and beds to more decorative items like candles, cushions and art. Everything is very neutral and classic in style and is of excellent quality. Some items in here would make a fantastic base for decorating your home to which you could add little quirky bits and pieces to put your own stamp on the place. I think the prices are actually pretty reasonable in a "you get what you pay for kind of way". Unfortunately I can't afford any of the larger items, but if I could I would definitely invest in a few! I fully intend to go back and purchase a few of the smaller (and cheaper!) items such as a lovely lamp I saw.

Dwell is probably my favourite furniture shop in existence; it's just a shame I can't be bothered…read moreremortgaging just to buy a table from here. The two floor store has all your weird, wonderful and quirky furniture needs for a contemporary home, but everything is so extortionately priced that whenever I go in, it's really just for window shopping. I think I've actually bought about 2 things from here and I've been in about 20. If the shop was slightly more affordable, it would be 5* without a doubt; I absolutely love the place. But it's not, so no 5th star!

For all your tile needs, Fired Earth is the place to go - I didn't even realise this place existed…read moreuntil our landlord last year redecorated our kitchen. We needed to sort out a time for them to come by and drop the tiles off, so I stopped off whilst in town. What a tiny wee tile shop! The staff were very friendly, and even knew what I was talking about when I basically garbled a spiel about our landlord and tiles. I even got a sneak peak at the tiles - not exactly my first choice in tiles, however, I was only going to be in the flat for another 2 months... (Yellow - like egg yolk yellow - tiles for a white/brown kitchen? Er... no thanks). We sorted out a delivery date and the tiles arrived. Perfect - well it would have been if they hadn't been THAT 'lovely' yellow....

As far as tile shops go, this has the advantage of being central and having a wide range of styles…read more There is a preponderance of earth tones, and the nature of tiles don't strike me as entirely appropriate for my Glasgow bedsit, but I enjoy browsing here and dreaming of that Tuscan villa and warm pottery beneath my bare feet... It is rather expensive, and aims at an affluent market- Tedesco's, out in Springburn is better for bog-standard tiles- but these are far more elegant and stylish.

Shamefully, after years of dining in Antipasti and popping in here loads, I didn't actually connect…read morethe two together. I know, it's awful. However, the fact still remains that this is a lovely little shop. The fact it's inside a low and long cottage on Clarkston Road makes it even better! It stands out from the flats, newsagents and garages around it. Inside, the layout really uses the space well and without making it feel cluttered or claustrophobic. Instead, there's a nice, chilled out arty feel to it and the pieces are displayed in a very natural looking way. I suspect, this is part of the reason it does so well. You notice some lovely - but unnecessary - cutlery placed about. Next thing you know it's in your kitchen. Though, for some reason my kitchen still looks like my kitchen. It didn't magically transform into a sunny, country kitchen with bread baking in the oven. Maybe, if I get the matching salad forks...

In my opinion, this is a brilliant light shop! They sell all things light related from standard…read morelamps & bulbs to custom made (both size & colour) lampshades and all kinds of light fittings and chandeliers. They also sell small pieces of furniture such as coffee tables, side tables, clocks and pictures. I have bought nearly all the light fittings for our house from Ruth at Cotterells and she has been very helpful. They have also offered a sale or return on large light fittings so that we can check it actually works in the room. This is reassuring when you are thinking of spending a few hundred pounds on a light fitting! Price wise they have a good range of options and look out for their own brand lights which are very competitively priced. I highly recommend them.

If money is no object though or if you're for lighting for an event, I'd definitely recommend a peek. Get your sunglasses on though, as the decor is just their own lights! I came here with a friend who was searching for lighting for his degree show, and they equipped him well (oo-er). The staff are very knowledgable on their subject, and the lad in the warehouse gave him a good deal on arc lights to light his and his class-mates work. It's a shame it's so hidden away, but gems often are.

Oh, yes I'm a lady. Anyhoo, as you can imagine I've been through my fair share of rugs - I've given up on carpets and decided wooden floors and the odd rug is the easier, cleanest and best way to go. Hence, this is a place I've popped into more than once. It's a massive place! Not only do they have masses of carpets and rugs in all shapes, sizes and colours but they also offer vinyl and eh other cold floor coverings. You know the stuff I mean right? As you can tell I'm not that into my DIY and luckily the staff in here and really friendly and gave me very clear instructions on how to lay some vinyl (or something) in my tiny bathroom. After much huffing, puffing, the odd swear word and a bottle of red wine it was done! Good job done all round! Oh and obviously as Eleanor pointed out the prices are very reasonable, there's a wide range of stock and they are also open seven days. Top marks.
