Bodkins is packed full of loveliness!!
On one wall there are buttons and ribbons (be still my button loving heart!!):
The shop is L shaped and this is only 2 of the 3 walls storing wool!! It makes me wish my knitting and crochet skills are better than they are (but thats fixable because the shop runs classes!)
It really is a lovely shop - complete with vintage shop fittings (swoon), and the owner was really helpful and encouraging...
I'd recommend a visit if you're in the area - you can find the shop in Hart Road, Thundersley, Benfleet... there are more photos and information on their website www.bodkins71.co.uk

ReplyDeletewhat a fab shop - all those buttons......I found an old shop on Portobella Road last time we were in London and the rest of the family laughed at how many ooo and ahs I made.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure of a shop! Don't see many like that these days- lucky you having it nearby :-)
