Of the interior home stores that I've recently visited I'd say that Anna Morgan wasn't necessarily…read moreone that jumped out at me immediately to say "Hello, here I am!" and wow me with their offerings. Nevertheless I was enjoying a good day of window shopping and so decided to have an elongated nose at their stock. The first window display was reasonably minimalist. There was a striped beige and white sofa next to a beige and white rose patterned armchair. Both had sort of faded union jack flag cushions, presumably faded on purpose, and a striped rug in shades of brown was laid in front of the furniture. On that were two very small leather valises with a model ship in front of them next to a ball of (?) yarn. It was a strange and yet oddly stylish display of interior arrangements. Of course, the rest of the shop did not have the same off kilter vibe but I was stood for a bit of time trying to figure out what was going on - to the point that the lady at the desk began to glare at me which made me feel a little afraid to enter! Wishing, almost, to convince her I was an innocent browser/potential buyer I crept in as unassumingly as possible and had a quick scout around. There were a few more nautical style items, a small coffee table with a faux snake skin finish, hoards of beige variety cushions and a lampshade with a deer at the base. I left pretty sharpish so as not to further annoy the shop lady, although I did enjoy some of the quirky items. In all, it's a fairly eclectic little shop for interiors, but I liked the random country element to their stock. Things were pretty beige though, and that is never too exciting.

It is a traditional arts and crafts shops, selling quality materials in the way of fine paint brushes, drawing pencils of many kinds, quality paper meant for certain tasks etc. As I say in many other of my reviews, I prefer a more creative way of finding imaginative materials in unexpected places, rather than conforming to these sorts of traditional (overpriced) shops, but for what it is, it is a great thing to have in Headingley, away from the busy pub ridden road.
