Hello there lovelies,
What a fabulous Saturday I've just had, so much so that I needed to jump straight in & tell you all about it before Sunday even arrives!
Now, for those of you that have been following some time now will know that I'm a bit of a Nottingham advocate, I'm so proud of living here & I try to keep on top of any new shops/brands that open up in the area... so can you imagine my excitement when I found out that one was opening up quite literally at the end of my street?! Oh. The. Joy.
Two Little Magpies opened their doors to Beeston this morning & there was definitely a buzz in the air about their arrival - somethings changed in the space of a year for our little town & it's such an exciting time to be part of it. Shoppers, crafters, creators & window shoppers were all intrigued & at not one point was there just myself & my pal Laura in the shop, there were even people queuing to buy things... Ah-may-zing times.
So I thought I'd treat you to a little inside look on what
Two Little Magpies has to offer, I'm so proud that in the next couple of weeks my
Cordelia t-shirts will also be displayed on these shelves (eek!) but sadly not in time for the grand opening..
I should also let you know at this point, that this isn't just a shop.. oh no.. at the back is a studio where Lucy (Two Little Magpies owner) is going to hold craft events & jewellery making courses. I think I'm going to be a regular & get all protective over having my own seat & stuff ;)

I bought these Hope the Black Dog embroideries to hang on my wall within SECONDS of being in the shop! AUP PAL! Bloody brilliant. |
|
This Robert De Niro quote was one of my fave things in the shop & I can't for the life of me remember the brand :( Does anyone know? It sits perfectly next to this Letterbox Lane plate |
|
This jewellery from one & eight was probably one of my favourite finds! So delicate & pretty.. Need. in. my. life. |
|
These earrings from Innabox were tooooo sweet aswel! |
|
Seriously, how great is this calendar to from Craftly to help teach your children days, weeks & months?! Genius! |

Just fell in love with these Mollys Mum handmade clouds - you can have them personalised with anything you like! |

Have you ever googled 'Creepy Little Weirdo' to try & find a brand?? DON'T. Some weird s**t comes up! |

(See that shop with the number 7 on it? That used to be Pink & Lilly, the shop I often mention that I opened with my friend Caroline 8 years ago. I wish we'd had Two Little Magpies on our street back then!)

|
They even sell dog clothes from Kool K9s!! |
|
A bit of something for everyone.. |
|
..And here she is, the woman of the moment, Lucy, the fabulous owner of Two Little Magpies - That smile sums up how she's feeling I'm sure! :) |
|
Service with a smile... coz I'm pretty sure they know they've got a customer for life with me. This is going to be dangerous for my bank balance.... |
|
Oh how I bloody love Beeston.. and this guy.. The Beeman <3
Let me know if you take a visit, I'd love to see what you buy - tag me on instagram @cordelia_hearts so I can take a peek.. |
