The wonderful people from have sent us some beautifully coloured pencils to mark this day.
They are a great example of WHY we choose certain products for our shop. Sustainability is a important challenge and stationary fills this goal to stock carefully considered products not just beautiful things.

Since 2016 Bates Upholstery found their feet in Manningtree, Essex. We have never been part of a community as much as this wonderful place.
With 3 pop up shops under our belt we took the leap 2 and a half years ago to open our own shop.
The shop holds a selection of Handmade Bates Upholstery cushions too, sourced from exclusive British fabric designers.
It's full of everything I feel my own upholstery customers would fill their homes with.
Vibrant, colourful and FULL of personality!
A little bit weird too.
Come and say hi! We're a little bit of you!
