#ShopLocal this Mother's Day with Card Shack

Posted on: 09 Mar 2021

Don't panic - we forgot it was this weekend too.

 

Mother's Day is almost upon us, and with it comes another last-minute rush to sort your presents out when you come to the sudden realisation you've forgotten about it again.

 

But what do you go for? Flowers are a bit of a cliche, a nice restaurant meal is out of the question, and-- is that the box of chocolates I bought last year tucked away at the back of the kitchen cupboard?

 

Thankfully, the team at Card Shack have got you covered this Mother's Day (Sunday 14 March in case you were wondering), stocking a wide range of bespoke cards, quirky gifts and more to let your mum know you're thinking of her during lockdown.

 

 

Whether you're after something funny, something cute or something downright inappropriate, Card Shack have certainly got what you're looking for to put a smile on your mum's face this weekend.

 

From sweet mini-cards made by Bristol artists to eye-catching illustrated cards and an endless list of crude jokes, Card Shack is covering all the bases to make a lockdown Mother's Day as special as possible.

 

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.
