They sell such a wide range of goodies like, original artwork, bespoke jewellery, cool lighting ideas, gifts for children, unusual and beautiful home storage ideas and a dizzying array of home trinkets both useful and decorative! There is also a lovely range of cards for all occasions and wrapping paper! The shop is situated just across from The Unicorn in Chorlton, and the staff are incredibly friendly... you can also order from their website if you don't live near the area... worth a look either way!

Another great little gift shop in Chorlton, which I try to stop myself from going into, as I know…read morethat I'll come out financially less well off. Having said that, 20cm by 20cm canvases are going for £19.50 and include a good range of Banksy's work - I don't think that's too bad for canvases I haven't seen anywhere else. From looking at my Yelp ratings I realise that I am much more useful than cool, so I'm not sure I fully appreciate some of the 'cool' items that Pad sells. If you are a fan of superfluous paraphernalia such as candles and candelabra, embroidered photo frames and Wizard of Oz beanies (?) then you'll definitely love Pad. They also stock some vaguely useful items such as his and hers hooks (shaped like the toilet symbols), which I think I'll be purchasing when I move in with the boyf! As Alison rightly says, the staff are friendly (but they're very rarely rushed off their feet!). If you order from the website, delivery is free for orders over £50.

It's been here since 1981, that's almost 30 years of trading, they must be doing something right! Everything looks so stunning and delicate in here that I almost tiptoe around the showroom. The glass cabinet filled with jewellery is probably my favourite section and the main draw of the shop. You can find some remarkably reasonable items from designers like Cloversoul and Kate Hodgson in oxidised silver, some of the nicest designs I've seen for months. You MUST give this shop a visit.

The Craft Shop in the Royal Exchange is often mentioned as an aside to the theatre but I think it's…read moreworthy of a mention in its own right. Trading since 1981, the shop has a reputation for attracting the best design talent from across the UK, including new and emerging makers as well as established names. Disciplines range from ceramics, glass and wood to jewellery, textiles and art. Prices vary and the shop runs the 'Own Art' interest-free loan scheme for purchase between £100 and £2,000. A rolling exhibition programme is in operation and artists' work is displayed in glass cases around the theatre, under a chosen theme. The Craft Shop is definitely worth a visit, whether you're browsing before a play or out shopping in Manchester.
