Posted on: 04 Feb 2021Shop locally for your loved ones this Valentine's Day.
Card Shack are gearing up for a virtual Valentine's Day this year, offering up a wide range of greetings cards and gift ideas for home delivery while their store remains closed due to the ongoing pandemic.
Based inside The Arcade shopping quarter, Card Shack are one of Bristol's best-loved card sellers, stocking a huge selection of cards for every occasion, many of them designed and produced locally.
Orders placed via Card Shack's online store during lockdown are guaranteed to be dispatched within 48 hours, with free delivery currently available on all orders over £25.
Whether you're after something funny, something cute or something that would be considered wildly inappropriate if it found its way into the wrong hands, Card Shack have certainly got what you're looking for this Valentine's Day.
From sweet mini-cards made by Bristol artists to quirky illustrated cards and an endless list of romantic puns, Card Shack is covering all the bases to make sure you say it best on your first-ever lockdown Valentine's.
Opened in November 2018, Card Shack has been supplying locals with memorable and heartfelt cards and gifts for almost two years. Proudly independent, store owner Michelle Kingscott ensures her stock comes from local artists and producers wherever possible.
Speaking to 365Bristol last year, Michelle explained that while other parts of the city are renowned for stocking and supporting local work, there was a lack of representation of Bristol-made products in the city centre during her first few months of opening.
“People used to come in and ask me for work from Bristol artists, which is something we never stocked,” she said. “I knew that a lot of it was up Gloucester Road, and not in town. So, I thought I’d bring it here.”
With so many small businesses struggling due to the pandemic, there's never been a better time to support Bristol independents wherever you can. Head to the Card Shack website to browse their full range and place an order in time for Valentine's Day.
