Exciting Week!


What an exciting week it has been. It started with more than average sales over the weekend (don't know why) and having my swallow set featured in the Madeit website newsletter on Monday (BTW, you should subscribe, you'll find lots of handmade lovelies). Well, within an hour of that happening I sold four more items and received a phone call from a frantic customer who wanted to know whether I was listing any more ring sets because there weren't any left. That lovely lady does not know how much that made my day! Some new wholesale requests and emails from new customers asking for product updates pretty much rounded off a great week.

In addition to that I have been able to list some new designs from my new and improved range (pictured). A slight change in the base material means that my new stuff is MUCH lighter, meaning improved stick-ability as well as the ability to offer FREE SHIPPING within Australia. Oh, and I now have greater flexibility in the range of shapes I can use too so watch this space!

Nesting.......


I think it's the pregnancy hormones kicking in because I am in a bit of a nesting phase. I've been planning some finishing touches to our renovations with a bit of urgency, which isn't like me really (the urgency bit). Anyway, not liking the current situation of my couch (it's a bit boring), I discovered some cushions that will match the retro-asian thing going on and had to share them with you. Even though I had to order them from the UK, they are actually designed by an Australian born artist, Nanami Cowdroy. I love, love, love them. Will post a before and after photo of the couch when I get them. I wonder if they repel baby spew?

Found some boxed frames in my cupboard so....


I made up some butterflies in a box. I only had four boxed frames so that's all there is. They're on sale now in my madeit store.

Just waiting on some new supplies and I'll be posting some NEW stuff soon. Yay!! As I'm think I'm sick of looking at my old stuff - It's time to move on...

SALE and Free Shipping!!

I'm hoping you are having a lovely start to your new year. It's been a bit hectic on the home front but I have had time to review my products and am introducing a new line of designs very soon. In the meantime I have cleared out my store room and have put put all of my old stock on Sale in my Madeitstore. These items have been significantly reduced so I'm not expecting them to last long.........

Something Pretty



I had some left over rings lying around and not wanting them to go to waste I made these little dreamcatchers. These ones are a bit girly but I'm planning to make some for boys rooms too!

How disappointing!

Well it's been a bit of a rough week this week with getting so sick I was unable to make it to The Handmade Markets on Saturday. I am pretty devastated as I had some new designs ready to go and it's just so much darn fun being there!

Anyway, no time to feel sorry for myself as I'm booked in for some markets leading up to Christmas including The Old Bus Depot Markets every Sunday until 13th December as well as the night market at Old Parliament House 5-9pm on the 4th December.

Will be posting some pictures of my new creations over the coming days, including my swallows - yay!!
