About Us

Sandy Shores has been an ambition of ours for a while. After years of selling products at various craft shows and retail shows all around Cornwall we have been lucky enough to meet and get to know some wonderfully talented makers and creators.

From artists to glass makers, textile creators to ceramicists we have seen the very best that the Cornish crafting community has to offer and we have always wanted to showcase these talented people.

So in the Spring of 2023 we decided to open our first ever bricks and mortar shop right in here in one of Cornwall's most coastal towns, Hayle.

With its miles of golden sands the name Sandy Shores seemed obvious to us and we have tried to use the beautiful scenery that surrounds us to inspire the choices we make and the products that we offer.

From locally hand poured soy wax candles to handmade seaglass pictures, and from fused glass artworks to handmade Cornish textile products we have tried to use the inspiration that the sea and coast gives us to influence our carefully curated products, giving you the customer the chance to try some beautiful items that you may not find in mainstream shops.

Our shop is based in the Old Foundry Chapel in Hayle which is a beautiful old building that is filled with independent, artisan shops offering items such as jewellery, clothing, hot and cold food and drinks, we even have beauty therapy and a hairdresser meaning that during your visit you can shop, eat, drink and relax!
