Ever since I was at UEA I’ve liked Edward Monkton – there’s something uplifting about the quirky drawings and poems that just makes me smile.
That’s why I was so pleased when I discovered a range of Edward Monkton goodies at Brambles in Norwich.
From mugs and bookmarks to notepads and chocolate bars, the range makes for great gifts. The Pig of Happiness mug is £8.50, so it’s great as a stocking filler or for a Secret Santa present.
In fact, I love Brambles too. It’s the perfect place to find gifts, prints and greetings cards. There’s Marmite memorabilia, sewing kits, toys and wrapping paper. It’s like a treasure trove, and once I go in I can spend hours in there!
The range of cards is wide and reasonably priced, so I normally stop by when there is a birthday coming up. They do stock Edward Monkton cards too, which are great for saying hello.
Seasonal blogging
I’m planning on a series of gift related blogs in the run up to Christmas, so if you can recommend somewhere in Norfolk stocking great gifts, leave a comment below.
