Say Goodbye To Party Shop and Hello To Sewing!

June 23, 2016 by Maggi Barnard

Forbes locals may have been wondering where The Party Shop has gone after a distinct lack of party shopping in the town… Well, wonder no more! Lin is back in brand new premises at Shop 6, Forbes Arcade, 113 Rankin Street in Forbes.

But rather than continue with the Party Shop Lin now wants to concentrate on her love of sewing, and has decided that the time is right for her to sell all her party wear, costumes and accessories. “I’m offering a massive 30% off all stock so come in and get it before it’s gone!” said Lin. Her new business will now be called Linny A’s Sewing and Alterations.

Lin will be available for all your sewing needs and those hard to do alterations in time for you to wear your gorgeous new outfit. If you need something done in a hurry then Lin is the lady to see. Lin is at the shop from 9.30am to 3pm each day from Monday to Friday. Pop in and make the most of the great reductions on party products and get that unravelling jumper and holey sock darned while you’re there!
