!!!PLEASE get little cauldrons with handles for people to use as baskets in your store while they shop around 😍

[@ranjanimohanraj8222]

This is such a cool idea😍

[@bailatwerski2951]

Ooooo thats a great idea 💯

[@gmmclean]

Yeessss

[@jennicookie1412]

Looove this idea!!!!

[@Avafahy]

Yea

[@DLFH]

I think you would do well with a Lost Cauldron stationary line, including wax and stamps, in the shop and eventually be one of the easier to ship items exclusive to the shop.

[@mmgwife]

I know you may not see this but a suggestion. Rent a wheel chair and a few other different mobility aids and run them around the shop before you open but after the renovations are done. You will learn a lot about the accessibility of the store. Its one very eye opening look at the way others move.

[@Kiki-in7mg]

Thank you for thinking about disabled patrons, it makes all the difference! I hope they will be mindful about pets in store as well, as disabled people with service dogs should be able to shop safely too. Lovely to see some thoughtful suggestions here.

[@mmgwife]

@@Kiki-in7mg I Am disabled which is why I suggested it. I just recently upgraded from a manual wheelchair to an electric scooter. I always try to suggest this to any KZbinr that I see opening a stick and mortar store. We are the overlooked and forgotten demographic.

[@karenbrauneis4290]

I 100% agree with you regarding the store tour. I have been in a wheelchair for over 11 years, and it is horrifying how inaccessible a lot of businesses are to people with disabilities. Sometimes the aisles are fine, but the area allotted for turns is not easily negotiated. Also, please make sure the entrance accessibility is sturdy and feels safe. Also, make sure there is access from the car to your doorstep. You laugh, but I’ve seen it happen. I live in the U.S., and too many businesses follow the “letter of the law”, but not the “spirit of the law”. They are just checking off a box, when the reality is quite different. Best of luck with your new venture. I hope to get to shop in your online store someday.

[@gaynorandrews1684]

My thoughts on your plushies.... have you considered special adoption certificates etc. I am sure children would adore the whole concept of adopting a plushie, naming it and giving it a 'Forever Home' Plus a special box/room of its own, or bed, or purch, etc. I know you're only renovating still but just wanted to throw an idea your way. 😉

[@jennicookie1412]

I love this! It would also teach them about adopting irl pets in the future!

[@boxy197]

very good idea it’s like a squishmallow but better you know what i mean😊

[@theannabeanlatte]

I would love to see periodic lost cauldron vlogs when it’s open! I’m so excited to see the next episode of the set up!

[@stourmbringer4825]

Cherry you should do a subscribers meet and greet. You will totally overwhelm the little town and see just how much you are loved and appreciated for all your magical ✨️ and whimsical 🎉 influence you've done over the years. Who knows I might have to take a trip across the pond and see it for myself 😂! Wishing you all the success in the world for All your magical indevors. ✨️

[@lauraladyll]

You could do a soft opening of the store either as a subscriber meet and greet or a little before, so you have a test run before you’re fully open.

[@monicaplamondon7297]

I’m glad you guys went with the name The Lost Cauldron. It’s the perfect name. Hope you’ll post a pic of the namesake cauldron. And yes, please keep the videos of The Lost Cauldron coming as well! Especially for those of us who don’t live near there. (Washington State, USA here.). Thanks Cherry!

[@deborahbissette1376]

Can you order online?

[@jessicawight7020]

I would love a sew on patch that is lost cauldron branded , excited for it to open

[@silverbackentertainment237]

My grandparents on my dad's side live in Matlock and I've visited since I was little. It's a beautiful location and keeps you fit with lots of steep hills. There's a big Sainbury's there which is ideal for parking and there's a castle overlooking the town. Matlock was also the main filming location of the 2004 independent film Dead Man's Shoes, which is far from the escapism of Harry Potter but still a gripping and very well-made thriller. I'm planning to visit again in the summer so I'll certainly visit and it would be amazing to meet you in person. Wish you every success when it opens.

[@magicalpensieve]

I loved visiting Haddon Hall which is nearby.

[@silverbackentertainment237]

@@magicalpensieve There are some beautiful places to visit. They filmed the 2011 Jane Eyre with Michael Fassbender at Haddon Hall. There's also Chatsworth Hall which is five minutes' drive from Matlock and you can see deer in the grounds.

[@fahranthurston2167]

I recognised the front of the shops stonework! I believe its going to be across from kwik fit!

[@silverbackentertainment237]

@@fahranthurston2167 I know where that is, not far from the town centre. There's a steep cobblestone street nearby leading to a huge graveyard, certainly Harry Potter-esque.

[@ca1.1um]

Matlock? How exciting! Me and my brother have been watching your videos for YEARS now. We will definitely be popping in at some point. Super proud of you Cherry ❤️👏🏻

[@MsKyiio]

Matlock is only 1,5 h (by car) away from where I live.. and 3,5 h by public transport.. now I have even more motivation to do my driving licence and get a car!!

[@KayleighChristensen]

Cant wait to see renovations part 2! Its such an exciting project for you and we are all along for the ride! 😊

[@user-um5mu9ws2z]

Thank you for answering so many questions. So excited for your shop. Looking forward to videos updating your progress.

[@HP_Lace]

I am so excited for your new shop to open and I LOVE your videos! Congratulations and good luck Cherry! 🍒🤞💞

[@paulabuffham1241]

You are so excited about this - it really shows how passionate you are about this and you will love being the shop owner! So excited for you. Will be in Matlock in June so hope you’ll be open on a Sunday after my bike sportif on the Saturday!

[@traceybradbury5022]

looking forward to seeing the shop!

[@shivanijenevive]

Looking forward to more Lost Cauldron vlogs! It would be fun to have little update vlogs here and there about new merchandise, etc.

[@user-yy3dv7jn6n]

I ❤ this! My aunt has renovated an old historic house to turn into a shop (I've been helping). It's crazy how many steps it takes, hoops you jump through, random details you would never notice but are important to the overall. In one of her rooms I hand painted different quotes on the crown molding. She did a blue ceiling in the upstairs hallway with sparkles added into the paint and we're going to "stamp" golden/bronzy stars on it! Hopefully I'll be helping create an owlry inspired detail around the mailbox with an area for larger packages as well.! Love your videos and I'm very excited/happy/all the things for you on this new adventure in your life!❤

[@laurenbrice5986]

This is so exciting!! I cannot wait to see the shop when it’s completed and hopefully bump into you while I’m there 😊

[@eyeballs1977]

Congrats Cherry! 🎉

[@kathyyork8230]

Just love the entire atmosphere at the Lost Cauldron shop! Those lights and moody feel is AMAZING!

[@lifeinacottagegarden]

So fun! I really want to open a magical bookshop/coffee shop but I am contenting myself with living vicariously through your videos 😂

[@HappyGnoux]

i'm really looking forward to the updates!!!

[@user-st1mr8tj2u]

I’m so excited for your shop. I am obsessed with Harry Potter and can’t wait for the shop to open. I love your videos and think you are amazing. Good luck with the shop renovation and can’t wait to see more videos on it.

I can't waittttt!!!! Will you have mini Magical items for dolls? That would be adorable!!!

[@ellycat5703]

I just found your channel yesterday. Where to begin. You're sooo cute it's just a delight to watch your videos. Enchanting. Soo excited to see the stocking of the shop video. Super keen to watch a whole back log of older content too :D What a great find this channel was ^__^

Unless it changed, from when i asked her, they won't be doing online orders.

I asked her about this before she said it was in person shop only

[@bailatwerski2951]

Me too🎉

I'm thinking of your cute vlog decorating your magical shelves for the Holidays. Now, I can't wait for a vlog of you decorating The Lost Cauldron for the holidays! It's like your magical shelves got a Big Sister!

[@waynesmith3908]

Cherry … a Magical type Shoppe seems very much a natural progression of your evolution. I definitely agree ❤ Since the shop was previously a candy shop, I think you should have some lovely sweeties included in the Lost Cauldron shop. Baby plushie Owls 🦉 sounds very needed.

[@astridmulkens6635]

Good luck with the shop ❤🍀

[@carriemalizia6590]

Excited for you! Love your shirt! Where did you get it?!?

[@andrescastillo07]

Wishing you the best and sending you light and blessings so your shop is as successful as possible!! I'm from Costa Rica so it will be very hard to go there someday, but maybe one day! Remember to take care of yourself and rest!

[@EmilyCheetham]

Cherry it would be sooo cool if you could find the whole history of the store and put it in chronological order and possibly them make up little history booklet of it and include any pictures you can find online. Then could put the booklet in your store and sell them?

[@vampqueen]

Good luck Cherry. 🥰 x

[@jennieh.6494]

Truly appreciate the fact that it’s wheelchair accessible. Great job!

[@katyevans8024]

I’m only down the road in Mansfield- can’t wait to come and visit! Me and a friend were discussing the shop yesterday!!! Xx

I'm a short hop down the road from you in Newark-on-Trent! Really hoping to make a visit to the shop when it's open 😊

[@hilarywallace9927]

Your Founding Member partner I see is Leslie from the Lonely Broomstick, Falkirk! Wow , how exciting! The Lonely Broomstick is a super magical shop ....I'm sure you will both make the Lost Cauldron just as magical !❤ Exciting times !

[@sdavis8292]

I think you’re amazing! I think is wonderful that you’re opening a shop, hopefully I can visit one day! 🥰

[@lauraw2074]

I’m so excited about your shop 😃. I remember some of its earlier iterations very well and it definitely lends itself to a magical shop. The building wouldn’t look out of place in Diagon Alley imo lol.

Congrats Cherry on your new shop. As someone in the US, I hope at some point once you have things in hand with the physical shop an item or two (pins) end up on a website. I missed ordering from Ordinary Owl and still regret it. I plan on not making the same mistake if I get the opportunity this time.

Please do The Lost Cauldron sweatshirts or jumpers!!

The Lost Cauldron is everything I wish the shops in York were! Those HP themed shops are just boring tourist gift shops that lack any real soul. I really feel like The Lost Cauldron will not only be a magical experience but a curated collectors dream shop! Hats off to you folks!

Maybe one day, nothing in the works at this second though!

Hi Cherry!! I hope you are having a wonderful day!! I wasn't sure where to put my comment because it's about a new tv show that I think you would absolutely love! It's on Netflix, and it's called Dead Boy Detectives. Anyway, I also wanted to say congratulations on your new gorgeous, magical shop!! Sending lots of hugs!! 💙

[@beccacaca1]

Not relating to the video content at all but I'm obsessed with what you're wearing in this 😅

Eventually, we will sell a limited amount of our exclusive Lost Cauldron items online in the future. However, the entire shops inventory won’t be sold online.

I’m so excited for this even though I don’t like anywhere near it as I form Scandinavia I hope I can visit some in the near future when it’s been open But I was wondering if you @charrywallis think it could evolve into a multi location concept somewhere down the line ? I would love to see What it could become with the huge global magickal community there is So much love from me and I’m so excited to see what will come out of this ♥️✨

I know that magnets are involved with the lower cupboards, but remember locks and a key. Having them level with curious children or pets can lead to accidents! I hope all is going well with you guys this week ❤

Congrats🎉🎉🎉on making it with such a huge deal as magical store, i hope you'll get a kick out of it! A cool idea i'd like to offer personally is to have an exclusive pin or sticker that would have 'magical family' stamped on top of animated golden snitches mixed with red cherries in between. That would be awesome!
