The Creative Shop is a family-run business, based in the heart of Douglas. Established in 2006, we have grown from a small art and framing shop, to a store now often described as an Aladdin’s Cave of creativity.
Our friendly team of Simon, Lynda, Kieran, & Georgia will always be happy to help with your creative needs.
We offer a full bespoke picture framing and mount cutting service, as well as keeping several ready-made frames in stock.
In the shop we sell a wide range of artist materials and sets, assorted crafts and creative kits, as well as home and office stationery supplies.
We also provide a graphic design and print service; from scanning and copying documents, to the creation of logos, business cards, posters, leaflets, menus, vouchers, and more!
Our latest venture is Laser Cutting and personalised engraving. In the shop and on our social media you will find an enormous menu of glasses, drinkware and other gifts available for personalisation, as well as all sorts of products that we have created or adapted.
We’re very proudly Manx, and keep stock of a great range of Isle of Man themed gifts & souvenirs, as well as scenic prints, nostalgic posters, and vintage maps.
Given the Isle of Man’s connection to road racing, we have a keen passion for motorsport. As of 2025, we are proud sponsors of local rising-star Marcus Simpson for the upcoming road racing season. Keep an eye out for our logo as he competes in races in the Isle of Man, as well as across the UK, Ireland, and further afield.
Each year we produce a unique road-racing calendar and a series of posters, featuring quality photographs from THIS YEAR’S EVENT.
