Hidden Gem.

Whilst in the UK last week I went to Frome which I assumed was quite a boring place.  How wrong was I, stumbled across a great little street full of fab artisan shops.

Found a lovely fabric shop called  Millie Moon,http://milliemoonshop.co.uk/


A great bead shop called beadz bazaar

 coffee and cake shop (well you have to stop for a while whilst shopping!) The guy in here gave me all the history of the street and told me about all the designers.

Various local designers including a lady that does amazing magnetic boards for the kitchen
