June
The weather has been up and down again here in Suffolk! One day sunny next day damp but always with a breeze, which seems to be the default setting at this time of year! We’ve just had another half term holiday and it was typically all over the place, I hope though, if you’re staying in this part of the world that you have a great break!?

If, by any chance, you’re staying in Southwold there are some great places to visit, Adnam’s do a popular brewery tour, there’s the little Southwold Museum for a rainy day and there are some lovely places to walk and have refreshments!

Hello if you're having a browse on our website! I hope you find something you’ll like? If there’s something sold that you’re interested in then it’s always good to get in touch as I can make another.

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!

Our gallery exhibitions have now begun and we have a two weekly change over of work! Our next one is showcasing Suffolk Open Studios with beautiful work for you to browse.Including, basketry, printing, glass, ceramics and much more! It starts on Thursday 5 June!

Here at Mitchell-Finch we are working on getting pieces together as we have Craftco to stock and Converge in Framlingham which opened recently.

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.
