Stuff is open!!!


At last - Stuff Croydon is open! We opened our doors on Friday, and the place looks great. For those who dont know, Stuff is a new market place in Croyson, South London. Filled exclusively with quality tenants, selling handmade and unusual things.


I am running my business, Coucou Heart, from a stall on the first floor of this amazing 3 floor Victorian building we are based in. I am selling handmade jewelley - a lot of which is steampunk / altered art inspired. I also love sewing littel felt creatures, so you can find those on my stall too.


I really hope this new business venture is a success - I have leapt out of corporate culture to do this for a living, as have so many of my fellow Stuff tenants. Please come along and support independant traders and buy something unusual and different!
