Featured

Thanks so much to Hand Made Spark for featuring our Map Pillow Box Set on their blog.

The blog post is about the SHOP LOCAL feature on etsy.
A lot of sellers are not filling in their location and could be missing out on sales because of it. Follow the link below to have a peek......

.....Sweet Dreams

I'm addicted to watching Extreme Makeover Home Edition at the moment and it got me thinking 'What would my dream bedroom look like?

I love any kind of rustic looking wood/ driftwood so my dream room would look like a mixture of all of these rooms.


















......makes me sleepy just looking at it

Etsy London Meet Up

I was lucky enough to go along to the Etsy meet up in London.
It was held at the make lounge. I had never been there before and its a great place with lots of fantastic craft workshops.

It was amazing to meet lots of other etsy shop owners and I fell in love with a badge making machine and am now on the look out for one myself.

Also got ot to meet the lovely AmityUK . She is the UK etsy blogger and also has her own shop




Cannot wait for the next UK meet up :-)

Business cards

We finally had new business cards made in time for the London, UK etsy meet up this week.
We are so excited to be able to start passing out our cards to people instead of just explaining what we make and writing our website on bits of paper for them.

We ordered them from vista print and got 250 free cards. You just have to pay postage costs.
I also got a free silver card holder, a free pen with our website on it and a free stamp. The stamp is great for decorating packaging and tags for items.
Its a great site with a lot of freebies and it was all delivered within 3 days.

Bottle Cap Earrings

We have added a new range to our shop. Jewellery made using recycled bottle tops from beer, soda bottles etc etc. We flatten them out and they are then finished off with silver plated earwires.

We have some of the pairs of earrings listed in our shop, here they are....let us know what you think?

We made our first sale

I think waiting for that first sale can be really difficult when you have opened a new shop and put alot of time, effort and thought into each listing. It is so nice to wake up and check your email and see a message waiting for you telling you that you have a transaction.
We are thrilled to have made that first hurdle and it all seems worth it. We actually made a double sale to a lovely etsy member and her items have been gift wrapped and sent off to her this morning.
