I Love You but We Need a Break......

Let me start by saying its not You its Me. Its just time we had a little break, it won't be forever I just need some space, seriously and literally I need space and you dear Japanese fabric keep filling up my sewing room so its time to say goodbye for awhile. We have had some great times together, with the children in bed, a nice bottle of wine, scrolling around your categories. Just when I thought I had seen it all you go and surprise me again and the next thing I know I am waiting impatiently for the postman, listening out for the squeak of the front gate, the knock on the door and when it doesn't come I am forlorn. Long weekends are the worst 3 whole days without the possibility of mail, well this is where I draw the line in the sand, enough is enough, farewell dear friend, until we meet again.............

Does anyone get Served anymore?

So I have had one of those days where I mistakenly adorned my cloak of invisibility when I left the house, next time I will make sure I wear something a little more noticeable.........
this is my list of  "lets ignore a customer" shops of today

1. Muffin Break - 6 staff, 1 other customer, totally ignored by all staff as they huddled round the ovens
2. Jesters - 3 staff, no other customers, staff were having a chat behind the counter totally ignored once again
3. Deli Section Woolworths - 4 staff, no other customers, took my number and waited,  totally ignored yet again but all the meat is now very prettily laid out, obviously not for sale though.

The end result I left all stores with no purchases, morning tea was not bought, a treat for the boys was not purchased and my husband has to have tinned tuna on his sandwiches yet again.

Calamity Bolt - Gorgeous Handmade

Last week I had my very first facebook sale and to my delight some of my customers were fantastic creative people themselves, one such person is Elke who has a made it store Calamity Bolt where she sells the most amazing Hobby Horses like the one pictured above.

Elke also makes hair accessories, clips and bands and her very cute logo was drawn by her daughter when she was 4.

Nice to meet you Elke!!

How to Scare the Crap out of Me

Step 1. Chase your 14mth old as he opens the front gate and runs up your very busy car speeding road
Step 2. Your husband calls to say he nearly ran the fully loaded 170ton truck he is driving off the road
Step 3. Pick up your children from daycare and be told one had escaped during the day
Step 4. Call your mother to have a good cry and be told your father is having a minor heart attack

What a Day!
