The service is great, they went through the processes that would lead from the original small-scale design to the large banner that they would produce. This reassured me that the quality of the design wouldn't decline in this transition onto the large banner format. The outcome of the product was really impressive, the design retained its vividness and colour scheme. They offer a variety of other services for all sorts of events and circumstances that might require a very particular style of printing to achieve the desired product. Great company, great service - I highly recommend them.

This is a nice little shop that I always go to to buy greetings cards and gift wrap if I'm in…read moreSolihull. They have a huge wall with really different and original greetings cards that I've never seen in other shops. There are really arty ones and funky ones that make a change to normal. In addition to cards, they sell funky wrapping paper and cardboard boxes to put gifts in. There's also loads of different stationary, papers and pens and things like folders and lever arch files. All are really nice designs. They also sell funky toys that are ideal as stocking fillers or little presents. The staff are friendly and always ask if they can help you. It's never too full so you can browse to your hearts content and then not have to queue to pay. They always have inviting displays in the window which was what tempted me in to start with!

This is a fairly large branch of Paperchase, situated in the middle of Touchwood. There is a…read morePaperchase section in Borders nearby, but this independent shop carries more stock. In addition to cards and wrapping materials, the shop carries stationery, small gifts and some items for the home, such as recipe holders. There are also some kitsch Christmas and other holiday decorations in season. Paperchase have a strong graphic image to much of their range, with cards and wrapping generally being bold and stylised; you can normally tell if an item has been purchased here. The stationery is of good quality (really nice paper in the notebooks etc) and is priced accordingly. The shop carries a wide range of pens, including some liquid ink ones that I can't find anywhere else, and which make even my scrawl look good. Great for presents for students, teens and anyone who likes bold, funky designs.

It is an artist's dream place and a nightmare all at once! It is impossible to step in and come out…read moreof there empty handed and a full wallet. They have every thing of the highest quality and all the best brands. The prices may be a little high, but well, if we're talking big art brands, this is to be expected. And honestly, when you look at the quality, it's all worth it at the end. Plus, they sell their own merch too in a much more affordable rate! The staff is really nice and polite, and don't mind chatting with you if you have any questions.

Despite several visits to tilt just across the road, I was still yet to even realise this place was…read morehere. A business meeting brought me nearby, and curious to see if they sold screen printing kit, as I'd bought textiles medium in one of the large London stores. Low and behold, of course they did, and as a total bonus- on offer too. Even though it's a chain, and art shops are expensive, this shop mostly gets 5* because of how lovely the staff are. They happily kept my purchase behind the till form me until after my meeting, and we gossiped about secret bars and the fact high up took Frida Khalo's moustache off on the poster. Lovely folk- give them you ur money. There's just something so satisfying about art supplies.

This place is amazing. If you have any questions about casting with resin or a range of other…read morechemicals then they can help you out, as the duo that run this place have tried out all the things they sell and then some. You can order online, over the phone or just nip in and see them. The lady that mans the desk and phone reminds me of Roz in Monsters Inc, the one who is undercover in a dragon lady type role. She is so funny and great for a chat whilst she orders around the bloke who knows what everything does and goes rummaging in skips. Don't expect a polite service, not to say it's rude, it's just who she is and once you've met her a few times it's just amusing. You learn something new every time you visit whether it's about casting, the people who run the place or by spying something in the clutter in the office as they have a range of test pieces of different processes.

Special Plasters is the place to go if you need any kind of plaster (obviously) but they also stock…read morea range of other sculpting materials, including the best priced casting resin I could find, and really very cheap Newclay / Newplast (think rainbow plasticine) which is perfect for animation projects, small maquettes, using with children as it's non-toxic, and comes in SO MANY COLOURS that you'll definitely be able to get the perfect shade. The staff are quite hilarious - gruff, but knowledgeable and helpful too. If you give them enough notice, they can get you massive quantities of whatever you're after - and if you take the time to chat to them to talk about what you're working on, they always have advice or suggestions for alternative ways of doing things. They also don't even bat an eyelid when you say you're doing things like casting resin into silicon cupcakes to make an outdoor installation, or that you're making 1500 plasticine faces with the children of Birmingham. They're fab.

I've been using the services here for many years. Printing, poster designing, picture framing and…read morethe odd gift are among the some of the things I've ventured in for. I've always found the service to be swift and efficient, friendly and helpful. Excellent equipment for full colour printing, take your own design or discuss your requirements with a small team to come up with a professional solution. Business stationary, letter heads, business cards and flyers all at very reasonable cost. I am considering using there service to print a photograph onto canvass, they offer sizes up to 44 x 72 inch, that's big!

They regularly discount ends of rolls and seasonal stock, which is great for a bargain you'll buy and probably never make anything with. The out of season liberty stock and some of the wools are the reason to come here, expect to drool and a pinch in the pocket. Yes the staff can be grumpy, but also helpful. If you are prepared for this in advance and except it then it makes the shopping trip that much more manageable.

The staff are knowledgeable, but often come across as harrassed and grumpy. That said, the fabric is so cheap I just don't care! Same as Fancy Silk Store - they don't stock many notions, so you'd need to go to the Rag Market for those.

The staff are knowledgeable and keen to help - I've been trying to source a particular type of ceramic blade, and whilst the man in the shop had never heard of it he took down all the details and is going to enquire with his suppliers to see if he can help. It's this kind of level of service that you would never EVER get in a big chain like WH Smiths!
