The Gloss magazine team have teamed up with TheShopkeepers.com and created a gorgeous list of Ireland's top 100 independent shops. We're so proud to have been included, and so thankful to our customers, or whoever you are who kindly nominated us. 

The list is a fabulously diverse and exciting bunch of independent retailers. We have a huge love for independent shops, they create jobs, can nurture creativity, bring life to our towns and villages, help create connections, and they can be such an important part of a thriving community. We can't even tell you how many wonderful, interesting, kind, funny and memorable customers and people we've had the pleasure to meet and chat with, all because of our open doors. 

Thank you so, so much to the Gloss magazine for it's efforts to boost independent businesses, and to the Shopkeepers.com - a gorgeous resource championing independent retailers around the world.

It is no secret that independent businesses in Ireland are struggling, with more and more people opting to spend their money with Amazon and other giant outfits. 

We want to live in a world where there are beautiful shops to visit, where our towns have colour and character and life and history and stories that go on. We hope to have our doors open for many years yet, and look forward to whatever the future brings. Thank you so much for including us on this list, it means so much.
