As a wealthy county in South East England, Surrey has several large and important towns that contribute to local employment in many different service industries. Camberley, Carshalton, Thames Ditton and Epsom are just a few of these conurbations that also have thriving shopping centres. With so many craft hobbies to choose from, it’s not surprising that a large number of Surrey craft shops have sprung up in many of these towns. The Craft Barn in Lingfield and Chicards in Wallington are just two examples of thriving craft businesses.
Further afield, Brackendale Arts in Camberley, Crafts Stationers in Carshalton and DreamCrafts in Thames Ditton all focus on their own particular range of niche craft products. Whether customers are looking for card making supplies, dressmaking materials or cake decorating equipment, it’s all here in Surrey. Another exciting traditional craft shop is Alboe in Bagshot. They sell jewellery making supplies, paper crafts and knitting needles, as well as wool and fabrics.
