Has anyone else discovered Tiger Stores? It's a Danish company, which sells inexpensive homewares. A friend told me about a branch in London, and now there is a shop in Cambridge, where I called in recently.
It is a kind of Danish pound shop, with gorgeous Scandi design in evidence. Hum drum items are transformed, such as these heart shaped sponge scourers.
A bird shaped coin purse. I love all these bright colours (modelled on my small stash of 60s and 70s fabrics).
Frames in cute colours.
And Easter eggs in bold brights. Isn't it great? I had a very happy half hour browsing the crammed shelves and filling a basket which came to very few £££s. Also of note, which I didn't buy this time, was sticky backed plastic shelf liner in pop flower designs. There is a huge stationery section to look through.
Here is a view of the front:
Well worth a trip, I'd say.
What a great shop! I often find little treasures in our local Pound shop. I'd love to poke around in Tiger.
ReplyDeleteHi, I agree that the Pound Shop can be a surprising source of treasures, but I'm sure you'd love Tiger!
DeleteI haven't heard of this store before but will have a look next time I'm in London. Love the little heart sponges and pretty purse. Thanks for the information.
ReplyDeletethere is one in Brighton too... I love this shop, they change their stock often so never boring.
ReplyDeleteI thought there might be one in Brighton. I shall definitely be calling in again.
DeleteYes, I chanced upon this shop a few weeks ago when I was in Cambridge. I think it has only just opened. Like you, I thought it was crammed full of pretty (and useful) things at very good prices and came away with quite a few 'treasures'!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like an interesting shop! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI do love some nice labels, well hopefully these will start to explode across the high street soon...I'd love a nosy! :) x
