After a fantastic 15 months at The Loft in Powerscourt townhouse centre, we are delighted to now be moving on to better things! One of which is our new website complete with secure on line shopping cart! We really enjoyed our time at the Loft and the company of the other traders, so many wonderful and lovely people! some who have come and gone such as Heidi Higgins who went on to open her own beautiful store in Portlaoise, others who have gone in different directions and of course those that remain with stunning work on offer, such as Jennifer Rothwell with her stunning silk dresses and faux fur coats to die for (I am lucky enough to own a gorgeous JRothwell faux fur scarf and a little girls dress! so so beautiful!), Sinead Doyle who has beautifully tailored pieces in amazing fabrics, Dee Harteincredible and really different one off pieces, Bev from B Design has lots of different garments but I personally love her hand made scarves which are an outfit in themselves, Rob from Lady Umbrella  just check out their website to see their really quirky collection of tee's and bags, Lisa Shawgi stunning and flowy knitwear, Yvonne from Eve Ella delicate handcrafted silver jewellery, Jean Cronin and Lisa Perkins (who both do an amazing collection of vintage and always have new stock with interesting finds), Gustavo Resevoir Boots who does really funky boots! And so many more! too many to mention! such a great selection of innovative and beautiful designs! ...we will miss them all. We will now be focusing on making your on line shopping and browsing experience so much more enjoyable and user friendly! The new on line shop will have extra fantastic deals and surprises so keep an eye out for these! We will also still be offering our one to one personal service via email or phone - so there will always be a 'person' at the other end for you so as you can discuss your own special requirements. We are very excited about this move and hope that you will all continue to support us through our website and exhibitions in the coming year - which is going to be a really exciting time! Watch out also for our two pop-up shops! Coming in February! As part of the 2011 Year of Craft! We will be in Dunlaoghaire for four weeks from the 3rd of February and Stillorgan for another four weeks after that!! The exact premises have not been confirmed as yet but we will of course keep you all posted and look forward to seeing some of you at the launch!! Thank you again for your continued support at The Loft over the past 15 months and we very much look forward to seeing you all again at different events or of course through our new website!!! We would also like to wish you all a Very Happy New Year and Happy Shopping!!! Here's to a fantastic and exciting 2011 for everyone! Rebeka
