We first opened our doors in Spring 2015 in the seaside town of Salcombe in South Devon, offering an immersive creative experience for all ages. Along with our paper bird cards we also stocked a large selection of papier-mâché items to decorate. We also sold art supplies, cards, prints, gifts, face-painting and birthday parties. To our local and visiting guests, we became a firm favourite, especially on rainy days.
In 2017 we took the opportunity to move to a bigger space on Island Street, Salcombe. To our delight our Paper Bird Island family continued to grow year on year.
In 2020 after the first UK Lockdown we reopened only as a shop, with our workshop space sadly closed.
…and in November 2020 we vacated the building due to the redevelopment of the site.
In 2022 we opened The Paper Bird Island Shop at Coves Quay, 6 Thorning Street, Salcombe (Just off Island Street).. This was a beautiful little shop where we sold craft kits, art materials, baby gifts, children's toys and games, cards, prints and gifts but sadly had no room for a workshop.
However! Fast forward to September 2024 and we are truly delighted to have reopened our Paper Bird Island Workshop in the nearby town of Kingsbridge, in Mill Street (next to the Harbour Bookshop). We have a fabulous new venue for you to explore your creativity. Here you will find all the firm favourites and some new ones! We decided not to retain the Salcombe shop as we want to focus all our energy and love on our new space. We still have art materials, cards, prints, kits, games and toys for sale. So why not pop in?
We look forward to welcoming old and new friends in this special art space. We really appreciate our customers loyalty, so thank you for staying with us on our journey!
