Post-Christmas discounts

As you might expect, most of our sellers are keen to leave Christmas behind and the shop is fast filling up with more new items every day. This doesn't mean there aren't some bargains to be had in store though, so come on down to find reductions on a some of our sellers remaining Christmas stock, including 25% off selected items from A Royal Fit...

...and at least 20% off Sara V Gartside's beautiful hand painted hearts.

So why not pop in and find out what bargains you can find?

Stuck for those last few gifts?

Are you stuck for those last few gifts for Christmas? (Or maybe you don't know where to start?) If that's the case then we definitely have the answer!

Our sellers have been hard at work creating their beautiful handmade items and while they've been flying off the shelves there is still time left to bag a gift or two (or few!) before Christmas arrives.

There are items for a wide range of budgets and you truly can find something for everyone in the shop, as evidenced by the fact that some of our sellers have done all their Christmas shopping in store, so why not pop along for a look? 

Plus, on Saturday 19th Dec we have the following events happening in the shop:

The infamous Dr Geof will be in attendance from 10 until 6pm, drawing his unmistakable portraits. Perfect for presents or just your own mantlepiece so do drop in, or book a sitting, & the good Dr will immortalise you on canvas in his own inimitable way. See our facebook event for more details.

Safehands Massage will also be in the therapy room from 9.30 until 7 p.m. offering massage taster sessions for just £5, so call in to for a well earned break from the hard work.

 

Gingham Saturday is here again

Forget Black Friday and Cyber Monday, the second annual Gingham Saturday is here again! Taking place this coming Saturday, 5th December, this event sees the majority of Fabrication's sellers offering discounts on a wide range of items for one day only, so why not pop in and grab yourself a bargain?

It also coincides neatly with Small Business Saturday, and what better way to support your local small businesses than buying your Christmas presents (or a treat for yourself) from a shop full of the work of Yorkshire micro-businesses?

Introducing our new loyalty card...

Saturday saw not just the celebration of our third birthday but also the launch of our new loyalty card scheme. If you were in the shop over the weekend hopefully you'll already have one of these cards in your wallet, if you don't then all you need to do is pop in to the shop and make a purchase over the value of £10 - this will get you your card and your first stamp. 

Stamps are available for every purchase of £10 or over, and the reward for filling your card is a (free) fab Fabrication tote bag - handy not just for future purchases from us but also to keep in your handbag / manbag / car to avoid the new carrier bag charge from larger shops.

Happy 3rd Birthday to us!!!

What a difference 3 years makes! Today marks Fabrication's third birthday, the perfect time to look back at how far we've come.

In the beginning it was just a shell of a shop, with marks on the wall left from the previous occupants:

But it took shape, and in October 2012 we were proud to open our doors to the public with 40 sellers:

180 sellers have joined us since then. Our shop in The Light is brimming with beautiful handmade goods from our 83 sellers, some of whom are still with us from that first day:

In celebration of our shop going from strength to strength we have filled our windows with items from each of our sellers, and there is of course birthday cake to share the celebration with our customers today.

We are also launching our brand new store loyalty card, as a thank-you to all our customers for keeping on supporting us. 

Here's to the next three years!
