About us

There are four people behind The Emporium's name, each of whom volunteer a huge amount of free time to help support and promote our local designers and vintage sellers.

We absolutely love our shop and truly believe that it is a great space to be for sellers and buyers alike... so much so that we even run our own separate businesses along side and within the fantastic space!

If you are a regular in our shop you will probably already have seen and met each of us- but for those who do not know... here is a little blurb about the four of us and what we do :)



Amy Rose Tossell (Amy Rose Felts/ Vintage)


 






Amy is a textile artist and designer, specialising in felt jewellery and accessories. She loves the whole felt making process and finds painting with fibres to be a very therapeutic experience.
She is also a talented seamstress and aims to create lovely and unique vintage clothing and home ware under the name 'Amy Rose Vintage,' as well as making one off individual pieces for her bespoke dress service too.

Amy aims to use as many pre-loved and recycled materials as she can, to use pieces with a story and a personality, and help the environment at the same time.

*Soon to be opening her very own studio within The Emporium's space*
