Independent Retailing by Hana Glover

Indie Roller member Hana is the face behind the purple bead shop in Nottingham and a life long magpie! She opened her first bricks and mortar 21 years ago to fulfil her dream of being a shopkeeper. She now sells beads, craft materials and haberdashery both online and in store with a love of sharing knowledge by teaching people new skills. Hana reminds us that it's a human being behind the counter who is creating a story on the shop floor for their target customer. Her sage advice reminds makers to not take it personally if they're turned down from a retailer.
