Shop of Delight
Bringing shoppers another fabulous festive pop up shop, the Shop of Delight takes on the mantle of the credit crunch Christmas with a variety of ways to manage your Yuletide budget. Just because Gordon Brown has put the wind up us and our bank statements doesn't mean that you can't have a beautifully stylish Christmas on a budget with a little help from Christmas Delight at Covent Garden.

Festive workshops
Helping you out with your Christmas plans, several Christmas workshops are due to take place at the Shop of Delight. From learning how to make your own decorations and revamping that little black dress for the party season, so finding out how to bake the perfect mince pices and Christmas pudding, there is plenty here to inspire you.
