April
The sun is shining and the easter holidays are about to start!
It’s glorious here in Suffolk although the wind is chilly, beware of shorts just yet!!

Hello if you're having a browse on our website!

An important piece of news is with regret we will not be able to ship to Europe or Northern Ireland.

Coming into force on 13 December 2024 the EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) means to continue to sell to the EU & N Ireland, we would have to pay over £100 per product for new safety testing regulations and employ an EU agent, which costs a great deal, as a named point of contact to oversee this. As a small partnership we cannot afford this. If we didn’t comply with these new rules it could mean 12 months in prison and/or a fine up to £20,000. This is a risk that we cannot afford!

Apologies for the above news, it’s not what we want but our hands are tied.

Craftco has been pretty steady with people new and old coming to visit the shop! Old customers that haven’t visited since the changes are always a little surprised by the new set up but are happy that we are still on the high street! With the Easter holidays starting we are hoping for a busy couple of weeks, so please come and say hello!

Our gallery diary is slowly starting to fill up with makers and artists wanting to display their work, we should have a diverse selection of things to show you over this coming year. Our Spring exhibition starts soon.

Here at Mitchell-Finch we are working on getting stock together as we will be turning up in a few places in the next couple of months, you’ll find us at Old Hall Spring Fair on Sunday 4 May, please come and visit it’s a lovely event.

Back to Craftco, if you want to know where the shop is or you haven’t visited Southwold before then find us at 40A High Street, Southwold, Suffolk. We are up near Adnam’s Cellar & Kitchen and diagonally opposite FatFace.
We share the shop space with Tourist Information, so if you need to find out more about what’s happening in the area then please do pop in?

Look out for more information on where we'll be and what we're up to on Instagram.
