News & Events
URGENT NEWS! ORDERS TO EU AND NORTHERN IRELAND
27 November 2024
As with other small businesses in the UK, we are just finding out about the EU General Product Safety Regulations (GPSR) that will come into effect on December 13th 2024. The requirements of these mean that we will be unable to ship items to the EU and Northern Ireland, hopefully temporarily until we can find a solution, but that may take some time.
If you are in the EU or Northern Ireland and are wanting to place an order before these regulations come into effect, please do so by close of Sunday 8th December so that we can get them into the post quickly and hopefully beat the deadline.
Please do contact us if you have any queries.
November 2024:
CHRISTMAS - LAST POSTING DATES. If you want your order to arrive before Christmas, you will need to place your UK order by Sunday 15th December so we can get it in the post by the last posting date of Wednesday 18th December. For elsewhere in the world, please check last posting dates for your country, and give us a few days before that to pick and pack it. It could be as early as Sunday 24th November!
CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR CLOSURE. We will be closed from lunchtime on Tuesday 24th December until Monday 6th January. Last date to place your orders if you want them to be sent before we close is Sunday 22nd December. You will still be able to place orders online while we are closed, but we will only start to process them from 6th January when we are back.
Sept 2024 - we are sorry but we are not always able to send 100g colours out on tubes and you may receive these as cones. This is due to issues we are experiencing with the winding machines, we are waiting for an engineer to come and have a look, but it takes a while from East Grinsted! We are hoping to see him before the end of the year. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
eGIFT VOUCHERS. We have decided to give these a time limit of 5 years. Any new gift vouchers will automatically have this applied. If you already have a voucher, it will expire 5 years from the date of issue. You can check what the expiry date is by contacting us - we will need the code on the voucher. The oldest vouchers that are out there still have until April 2025 to be used, so there's a bit of time yet!

The next newsletter is now out! To whet your appetite, it includes the usual news about products, exhibitions and events, and our solar dyeing challenge, alongside an introduction to Anna Wetherell, the other new owner of weaversbazaar, starring in our 'Day in the Weave of...' section.
