In all honesty, if you're looking for an obscure card (for example, Happy Hanukah) you won't find it hear. What Mayther is best at is selling beautifully designed, humorous or unique versions of standard greetings cards. They're reasonably priced, and a cut above what you normally find on the high street. They also sell a host of wrapping paper and ribbons to brighten up even the dullest of presents.

During Christmas they also had some nice decorations and very cute festive earrings! We got a pair last year and a couple of pairs this year. This year they had some more traditional and nostalgic ornaments and I couldn't resist. This location in Bath gets VERY busy, so I'd recommend going when they first open. I've walked in and walked straight out again recently and it was only a Tuesday!

I was made aware of this company a while back and I love their food and pastry photography, therefore, I ordered a 12 pack of ice cream and macaroon cards for birthday mail outs.

It's a large shop filled floor to ceiling with cards for every occasion, for him and for her, funny and sentimental, occasions such as moving home and leaving job are also catered for with a wide range of syles and choice.

They have all the well-known brands of wool, and I've never seen a bigger supply of different buttons! I love going in on a Saturday to look at the patterns, and then having all of the materials that I'll need for a project to hand. With it's central location inside Guildhall Market, it's great to start a Saturday afternoon of wandering around the market.
