    Arlene did a custom order for our wedding, which included nine centre pieces, button holes for the groom’s party and a gorgeous bouquet for the bride. The brief included cream and gold with a leopard print theme (which you can just see perfectly placed inside the petals) and we were absolutely blown away with the results - worth every penny. The bouquet is now pride of place in our kitchen as a forever keep sake along with some of the centre pieces in the house. Thank you Arlene for the extra bit of magic and sparkle you added to our special day.

    Arlos flowers are beautiful one of a kind works of art. She recently created bouquet gifts for both my mother and sister in U. S. I wanted to find a gift that they could only get in England, and what they got was a work of art that you can only get in Bedford.

    I don’t live locally so unfortunately haven’t been able to visit the shop but I’ve ordered specialist crepe paper a couple of times online and received each order very quickly and well packaged. One occasion I emailed an enquiry for specific paper colours and Arlene replied same day, checked stock and made some available for me. Very good customer service! Thank you!

    It's great to see such a creative independent shop in Bedford. The gift section has things that I've never seen anywhere else, and the paper flowers the lady who runs the shop creates are simply amazing! It seems that a lot of the craft items in the shop are also available on their website, and the prices are really competitive. Highly recommended!

    Lovely shop in Bedford with some great, quirky gifts and cards. I bought an awesome table golf game for Christmas & it was brilliant. A fab range of art materials and stationery including fabulous Leuchtturm1917 notebooks etc which are amazing quality are also available. The most amazing thing about ArloArts though, is the stunning paper flowers, which are great for any occasion! Arlene is so talented and will work with your brief to make the flowers of your dreams! There are also ones you can buy there and then! Disclaimer: ArloArts stocks cards from my business On The Map UK, but I was a customer before supplier AND I am particular about only having superb retail outlets as my stockists :)
