My Flair Lady Floral Designs & Gift Shops is a large florist, gift and card shop in the Essex village of White Roding with a varied customer base of locals and destination shoppers. Owner Amy Fuller shares some of the shops’ best sellers.
Everyday: Copper Leaf from Janie Wilson
“High quality cards, with lovely finishes, that look very special.”
Humour: Across The Board from Redback
“Some of the cards out there I find are quite rude. I like to find a happy balance of cheeky but not offensive.“
Humour: Genius from Woodmansterne
“Reflecting the funny things kids say to exam questions, the cards are designed with child-like handwriting and witty answers.”
Photography: General from Woodmansterne
“Because they are blank cards the sending occasion is versatile. There’s also a good variety of themes and new designs are always being added to the range.”
Art: Jack Vettriano from Heartbreak Publishing
“These are versatile for sending for weddings or anniversaries because of the artworks’ couples in romantic settings.”
Contemporary: Gin & Frolics from Rosie Made a Thing
“The humour is modern but so is the style of the illustrations that are really simple but clever.”
Traditional: Velvet from Jonny Javelin
“They’re amazing! Christmas and everyday, we sell these all year around.”
Handmade/Hand-Finished: Everlasting from The Handcrafted Card Company
“The publisher’s sympathy card range is the best I’ve ever seen!”
Children’s: Candy Club from Sensations
“These fly out! Glittery badge cards with big numbers at a good price point.”
Ancillary: A-Z Ankle Socks from Powder
“The socks have been really good sellers for me. There’s a design selection featuring a letter from A to Z.”
Ancillary: Elephant Print Beach Bags from Powder
“Really lovely beach bags that shimmer in baby blue or pale pink with a gold elephant repeat print.”
