Paisley & Rose

Hello Folks

I still have this job-lot of stock to clear...now reduced from £1000 to £750. Christmas was always my best time for sales so I am reducing the lot from £1000 to £750 in the hope there's someone interested who is passionate about fair trade and wanting to have a go at selling on some Christmas Markets.

Fantastic very varied bundle of ethically sourced goods (over 90% sourced from registered fair trade suppliers) at less than wholesale price.

The cost to buy this lot wholesale at today's prices would be at least £1,400, so this is a real bargain now reduced to almost half that wholesale price. Plenty of room to, at minimum, triple your investment - or more if selling on Etsy!

This would be a great start-up bundle as there's a bit of everything, rather than having to buy the usual wholesalers minimum quantity of each particular item... often 6,10 or 12... in which case you'd only get about 15% of the variety for an initial £750 spend.

Bulky and heavy lot so would need to be collected. LN7 postcode.

UPDATE: All tiles are now SOLD
Last of the Moroccan cement tiles - 26 @ 8" and just 2 @ 6". These are the real thing, made by hand. The pattern forms the top few mms of the tile - unlike the inferior printed ceramic lookalikes found in the big tile shop chains. £75 to anyone taking the lot - that's less than half price. (The 2nd photo is an example of how I have used some in my own kitchen.)

Hello Folks. I still have a few rugs to clear. Most are too big to lay flat to photograph complete... and the photos don't do them justice! It's been especially difficult to capture their true colours, but anyone is welcome to call in by prior arrangement to view in person. All half price or less!

That's a wrap folks! I've enjoyed a very busy few weeks and had my feet up since closing the doors yesterday! I'd like to say thank you for supporting me these past 7 years to indulge in my passion for colour, pattern and all things handmade and fair trade 🧡💜💛💚. I'm especially grateful to those loyal customers who particularly chose to shop at Paisley & Rose because they prefer to buy fair trade... you can continue to find similar goods at your nearest Oxfam shop, or order directly from some of my suppliers: Namaste Fair Trade , Ian Snow , Shared Earth - Fair Trade Products , The India Shop .
I will be continuing to sell my furnishing fabrics via tetfordfabrics.co.uk, and will also be posting details of other stock I still have to clear on this page, so keep tuning in! With love, Sarah 💜🧡💚💛💙❤️🖤

Come and find a bargain in the sale! Just over 2 weeks now until I close. Here are photo's of some of the remaining stock. I'll be opening Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10am-2pm (or later if I know to expect you) for the final 2 weeks.

There are enough 8" moroccan tiles left in stock to do a similar sized 'patchwork' splashback to this. These are the real thing - each individually hand made by artisans in Morocco. They have so much more character than the mass produced tiles found in the tile chains.
Just 5 weeks to go before closing... come and find a bargain in the sale!
Open 10am-2pm Friday and Saturday until 8th April.
