Sunday bliss

Hi everyone!

I'm super excited, had a great day out & found lots of lovely goodies - although it looks like I'm keeping majority of items. I've been busy putting lots of new stock on the facebook page as well as making some pretty pom pom flowers, perfect for valentines, mothers day or just a treat for yourself. They look especially great in vintage jars!

Each bunch includes 6 pom pom flowers on sticks with a personalised stamped label. Below are a few of the new items which have been added to the stall in the last few weeks, enjoy!

Now to show off some of the bits I got today! A gorgeous vintage vanity case, which I'm toooootally in love with! Also picked up some pretty china and a very cool oooold mobile phone!

Still have lots of new items to sort through & should be adding some items this week so keep checking our facebook page! Thanks for all the on going support!

Hello 2013

WOW! Its been so long since I've last blogged - on that note...HAPPY NEW YEAR! 

I've been really loving fonts and experimenting with different types lately (above pics) I'm desperate to start getting creative again! The holidays have taken the toll on me and slowed me down a tad! So I've started to keep notes of all the things I would like to make this year and already I have a list as long as my arm! I just can't stop adding to it, the more I go on to pinterest the more lovely things I find to make. So I shall be keeping you up-to-date with my crafting experience! 


As well as crafting I've been adding lots new items to the stall over the holiday period, heres just a few of the treasures...

This is just a quick post & I shall be back soon with lots more lovely bits! So until then come down to the stall and visit our gorgeous cafe - Tea for Two :-) 



 

Balloons, colour...action!

Hey hey! 

Just a quick post to show you some pics of my week :-) Last weekend we had a lovely long weekend to Centerparcs - it was action packed with quad biking, segways & lots of walking! So much pretty scenery...

Once home from Centerparcs, I was lucky to have some work experience with a fun and creative event planning company. Mind Candy was the customer for the party, they're an entertainment company who have created an online gaming world  for children called "Moshi Monsters". The brand is fun and completely creative which is why  the decor for the party was totally fresh thinking and original...we spent the day applying a mix of pop coloured balloons to the walls, making sure it looked like an explosion, a big 3d wave working itself around the interior. Bright bunting flags & upside-down umbrellas hung from the ceiling and walls, all in keeping with the bright burst of colour! As well as the quirky use of objects, there was also some fun novelty interactions such as cotton candy, photobooths and ice cream cocktails. I left the event feeling totally inspired...and was dreaming about balloons, all night...

Tomorrow is a day at the stall with some new items to be added! Will keep you posted! Nighty nighty!

Seaside fun

Hi people! I have been meaning to send this blog post for the last week but I have been a busy little bee, so anyway here we go...we had a trip to the seaside for one of the last "hottest" weekends and had a fun, relaxing time with friends and BBQ's, our farewell to summer until next year! Last week was spent working at the stall & ordering our first christmas order (which arrived today & we are mega excited- post to follow) Here are a few pics of whats currently in the stall...

     

   

Here are some new items that we added to the stall this week; 

As well as adding to the stall we also completed our first restoration project, you may have seen us facebook post about a chair, that a customer no longer liked so we decided to brighten it up! And here we have it... not only do we have happy faces but the customer does too - not bad for a first try, eh?

Please check our facebook page for more items & updates! We now have over 100 followers, yippeee!
