It's been a fetish of mine since I was a kid and it's never gone away. If it's my addiction, then Paper2 is my dealer - this place is amazing. I can spend hours in this store and it's really not big enough for that but the range of cards and gifts on offer here is superb. There's an excellent collection of vintage style posters and cards which I can't get enough of at the moment. Stop in here for journals, notebooks, craft supplies, wrapping paper, globes... I could go on and on. The staff are lovely and helpful, which is no surprise I'd be super happy if I worked here too.

If you love cute clothes for children, you can's go past Mini Pengiun.Owned by a lovely Chinese…read morelady, who has thousands on items, the store is a paradise of pretty little outfits for under fives. There's only one problem, what to pick becuase there's so much to choose from. I must admit there is an awful lot that I would not choose for my grandchildren becuase it's not to my taste but that still leaves a lot. The dresses are all frilly and lace, the sort of thing you would expect a doll to wear, the boys clothes are straight forward. Lots of colour but don't expect to see Fred Bare or Osh Kosh here. Mini Pemguin also has children's accessories.

I had always walked past this shop and said to myself, "one day I must go in"…read more Well the day has come! Granted it was only because I didn't have enough time to get into the city for Morris & Sons after my volunteer shift and this was the closest next best thing. What I didn't know, however, is that these guys are run and stock Morris & Son's goods, plus a few others. Did you know that? Well now you do. There's obviously not the big selection you get that the Morris & Sons shop however they still do a good selection of wools, baby wools & everything else. I got some lovely baby wool here for my friends pro-breast feeding nipple beanie I'm making for her baby. There is a kitty out the back here who will yell at you for pats, adorbs! How can I not love a store that has an inhouse yowly kitty? They have crotchet and knitting tables - they actually have lessons and crafty get togethers. Why would you want to leave? Cozy for a rainy Saturday afternoon.

I can't tell you how many times I've walked past the Granny Square and wished I had a legit reason…read moreto go in. Well dreams do come true! I've been unable to source a decent wool beanie in this city of ours and decided to make one. I've done some very basic knitting in the past but of course all the beanie patterns I'd looked up on pinterest last night at the peak of my enthusiasm turned out to be way too advanced. Tal, the very nice lady who works at the Granny Square, took pity on me and totally sorted me out though, and I left with two skeins of wool, new kickarse needles that will knit any dang thing (er, more or less), and the confidence to get. things. done. They have clinics every second Thursday morning if you're stuck on a project and just can't figure out the pattern - in fact, while I was there Linda (who runs the clinics) was helping another customer with a knitting problem and that customer sounded very grateful when she left. They also teach classes if you're new to this whole knitting/crochet caper, or want to take things to the next level. It's a cosy little store so don't expect a huge range of wool (they have a larger store in the city - Morris & Sons), but their customer service is second-to-none. Thanks Tal and Linda!

I personally love Japanese culture, so I am really glad to have this store open up near us…read morerecently. Their art & craft supplies definitely come in handy for journalling/school work/work in general, and their stuff is much cheaper to get than the stationary/art supplies that can be found in Kmart. They have other things as well that aren't related to stationary/art. They also have imported Japanese food, homeware etc. You will definitely find something in this store that will cater to your needs/wants.
