This is certainly the cheapest place for cards that I can find at the moment. You can quite often get cards there for 2 or 3 euro, as well as wrapping paper and gift bags which are also reasonably priced. They have quite a selection of cards and usually have one to meet any various card-buying needs I have. Their toy selection is always great value, although I wouldn't go there looking for something specific, rather if you're looking for a little gift on the cheap you'd certainly find something serviceable here. The also stock a mishmash of household goods like glasses, frames and cleaning products which are usually exceptionally cheap, although there is no consistency of what they have in stock. Good for a rummage though!

What they've done so far however, looks quite pretty. There's a big selection of fashion and deco fabrics and buttons to very reasonable prices. My inner Lagerfeld was already sharpening the scissors when I browsed through everything. I need to come back with a clear picture in mind of what I want to make and bring more time as well. There is A LOT of choice and they haven't even received all their stock yet, so I'm told. Watch this space!

You can great deals on fabric that might be slightly marked or damaged, hence the reduction and they also have a cool section of vintage patterns.

I collect coasters from every country I visit and I spent 7 days looking for coasters with no luck. I even went into Irish Design Shop twice this day. After walking around the first floor looking defeated, a gal told me that there was an upstairs if I'm looking for anything else. As soon as I spotted these on a table upstairs I started to cry. Dramatic? I think not. I was ecstatic! I've since ordered artwork from them to deliver to the states. You'll regret not visiting their shop.

I really like the half-gloves that gave easy access to phones, but there were a bit pricy, so didn't purchase. Also gorgeous leather satchels, but I'm trying to not buy stuff I really don't need so resisted their temptation too! Went upstairs and got a really cool surprise! Laura Caffrey, a jewelry designer was working away and so had a lovely time chatting with her. She showed me these beautiful Silver & Enamel bowls (starting price is €410)!! that are also made by another artisan, and these were just so unreal looking! I coveted but might have to win that lotto to be able to buy one! If in the area, and have some spare time, stop in and speak to the artist and support local Irish crafts!! Yelp 98/ 2019

They turn out really well here for a reasonable price and the guys working here are really helpful and know their stuff too. Anyway on to the cool thing, well i think its cool and maybe a bit nerdy on my behalf! they have a ginormous printer and you get to see it all working! so cool!

Popping in, you realise just how much thought must actually go into a painting - what one of those 200 brushes would be most apt? Acrylic or oil-based paints? What size canvas? And what in the world are all these accoutrements for down the back? Comprehensive is the word to describe this place, and it must be an artist's heaven. Naturally this doesn't come cheap, but when a squiggle can sell for a couple of hundred bucks, sure what's an extra euro or ten?

I recently purchased a gift online to send to a friend for her birthday. Part of my order was on back-order, but a staff member was quick to reach out to let me know.

This kind of special attention and personal connection is why I like to buy from family run independent stores like this. Excellent customer service!

We popped into this location to pick up a few tchotchkes for the folks back home. The store is packed with goods from wall to wall, floor to ceiling. They have all the classic souvenirs plus a few local specialties in the form of snacks and such. We scooped up a few magnets, a hat and a couple of t-shirts for the family. It was nice to be able to mark everyone off the list after one spot. Service was okay. Not very helpful and a bit disconnected at the register, but I imagine they are constantly busy, so just overwhelmed. Either way, it was noticeable, but didn't detract much from the experience. Overall, I'd recommend this or any Carroll's location in Dublin when you are after goodies from your trip.
