Mother's Day

Posted by Charlotte Bufton on

As it's Mother's Day this Sunday, us ladies at Expressions wanted to show a bit of public display of affection and tell our Mums how much we love them.  "I love my Mum because she's funny.  She makes me laugh.  A lot.  Even though she is tiny, she gives the best and biggest hugs." -Raine "My Mum is super cool.   She is not like other Mums - that is why I love her.  Even though we don't live close to each other, she is always there for me." -Laura "My Mum is such an inspiration to me.  She has had such...

The Beginning Of Expressions

Posted by Charlotte Bufton on

Expressions opened its doors in September 2010.  My parents wanted to expand their business, Express Bathrooms, and thought that a shop in town would be a perfect satellite to encourage more traffic to their Rotherwas premises.  That is where the shop's name comes from...an extension of the original business. At first it was thought that the shop would mainly sell larger items such as furniture. But the gift side took off so well that was developed into the treasure trove full of wonderful gifts that it is today. As the shop was coming together, with walls knocked down, carpets fitted,...
