Our brilliant businesses have been spreading the Christmas cheer with their wonderful winter windows – and the Hello Dorking Shop Window Competition now has a winner!
First we want to say thank you to all the businesses in Dorking who have made such an effort to make the town sparkle, shimmer and shine with Christmas cheer! The town is looking so wonderfully festive thanks to you all.
Our judge Claire Leigh, Trade Marketing Manager at BIRA (British Independent Retailers Association), is a community leader and award-winning businesswoman who has been recognised for her dedication to the small business economy.
And now, here are the winners, with a snippet of the Claire’s comments:
“I can see just how much thought has gone into this window. From the structure to the colour schemes, to the products. It really impressed me.”
With illustrations from Sam TM Art that perfectly balanced the products within the window.
2nd – That Lovely Shop
“This window had a really lovely mix of illustrations and product placement, creating a lovely Christmassy feel.”
3rd – Aya Boutique
“A really lovely structure to the display and a real sense of Christmas sparkle.”
“A really impressive use of product, especially given that you can’t guarantee what your stock will be.”
Highly Commended – Sandrock Interiors
“A very striking display, especially the mix of lighting and foliage.”
And thank you to our sponsors Waitrose, Dorking, who donated a bottle of champagne for the winner.
Congratulations to all our winners and those highly commended – you did such an amazing job for Dorking!
Don’t forget to visit Dorking this Christmas to see all the winners and enjoy the festive cheer they bring.
