We have RELOCATED…..

Sometimes things happen that you truly have to take in your stride and trust are pointing you in an even better direction than they were already going! Unfortunately due to a conflict in business with my original location, the council have forced me to close my shed and cease trading from the shed at Viables where my shop is located.

It was bold of them to think I would be stopping something that I’ve poured so much time and dedication into, and that’s why I’m EXTREMELY grateful and excited to be able to announce that we are now located at the Golden Lion Pub just a one minute drive from the old location!!! The shed now has a new setup in the rear car park ✨

Everything about the shed remains the same- the love poured into every single item that stocks the shelves, the tasty treats, and the happiness it brings hundreds of customers. The shed will be stocked on the same days and open at the same times, like I say just with a slightly different location.

I’m already blown away by the love and support you all show me week in and week out, but now more than ever I would be extremely grateful if you could spread this word far and wide so that people are aware of the situation. A share on this post, a like, passing the message on to a friend, it all helps to make such a difference 🩷

Here’s to not letting the difficult defeat us and instead taking it solely in our stride. There is so much more to come I promise!! 🧁

Thank you from the bottom of my heart x

The theme of this year's Basingstoke Festival opening parade is here:
🦄🐲The Parade of the Mythical Beasts🐲🦄
📅Friday 19 June 2026 at 5.30pm

Get ready for an evening of magic, music and myths at the opening parade as over 20 community groups, local schools, and 500+ marchers launch the 15th year of Basingstoke Festival.

Joining the anarchic extravaganza will be Mr Wilson’s Second Liners, alongside them will be the thunderous rhythms of the BSB Cavaliers and the Royal British Legion Band. You are all encouraged be a part of this joyful street party as it parades through the Top of the Town in Basingstoke town centre.

The excitement carries on as Mr Wilson’s Second Liners continues the party vibe performing 90s club classics at the end of the parade. Titfor Tat Circus will then bring the mischief and mayhem with their new show, ‘A Disorder of Knights’, ending the evening with a bang and kickstarting three weekends of fantastic festival fun!

Whether you are a local resident or visitor, this is a celebration for everyone.

📌Get the date in the diary, bring your friends, family and of course your ‘roarsome’ energy.

This year's parade is being produced by the fantastic Scratch Built Productions.
