What a find

What a find! A real treasure trove of a shop. Ordered a couple of items which came faster than the speed of light. Really liked the recycled packaging. Oh and love the items I bought too! Will be shopping here again.

You stock the lovely metal clothes pegs…

You stock the lovely metal clothes pegs which I have used for years now and since getting a washing machine which does a bigger load I needed some more to add to the ones I have. Ordering was easy, the pegs came when you said they would and they are doing a grand job. The shiny pegs are easy to find when I drop them in the garden, they have a good grip and don’t need a massive finger pinch to open so would be fab for those with stiff finger joints. They also never break. Thank you! (Note - this is long so feel free to use a part of it if that’s useful!

A wonderful find.

I'm very pleased to have found this absolute gem of a shop, which stocks well made goods essential for any household. In attempting to reduce plastic in daily use and purchase long-lived items, this place has a super range to choose from. I purchased online, and everything arrived thoughtfully and well packed in perfect condition. Those lucky enough to visit gorgeous York are in for a treat with Heima (and the Cathedral, the Shambles, Bettys, etc!)

Super salt and pepper mills

I bought a walnut salt mill and pepper mill (actually interchangeable). They are lovely. The crush grind mechanism works really well giving a fresh peppery aroma. Delivery was quick and well packaged.

Wonderful little shop

Wonderful little shop, ordered my purchase on line. So straight forward. Recieved a very helpful and informative email explaining my delivery. Matthew the owner couldn't have been more helpful. Purchase was exactly as ordered. Will definitely shop here again.
