Around We Go

11/01/2022

It's a new year! And each year I make a promise to be more eco conscious in my purchases and more mindful on how and what I buy. So it is very exciting to say another local Ballan buisness are stocking our cards! Another win for the war on waste and gift giving! The Wine & Deli Co have an amazing selection of not only wine but all sorts of local artisan goodies. You'll find all that you need and this one stop wine, coffee and gift shop! Including the most scrumptious menu. Be sure to support local in everyway! Thanks guys!

So great feedback we've had is that many of you out there are actually after Christmas and Every Occasion Swing Tags OR Mini Cards?

Whats your jam?
Hit me up in the comments with what you do!

We have whipped up the below swing tags, choosing our most popular cards.
The question is, should we have the TO: and FROM: or leave it blank?
Or should we do mini-cards?

Ahhhhh Christmas is approaching so we'll need to get these pumping soon. Also if you have orded some cards but would like some swing tags too, we can hold your order to not have to worry about postage. Please contact me if that sounds good to you..

MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE EVERYONE! I can't believe were doing this and the good it is circulating in every direction! THANK YOU!

Gosh I haven't really marketed a business before but it feels alot like blowing your own trumpet on the daily. I have to put aside that it feels so self serving and realise that we are actually doing a good thing and that it needs advertising and promotion!

So when starting this social enterprise, figuring out how to give back and pay it forward was the easy bit! Not even a second thought went into supporting Australian charities. And to have a different charity chosen by each artist is extra special. We believe it gives the artist a sense of giving back too, and to a organisation that has either helped them or the feel called to raise awareness about. And that's the extra speacial part.

It's also no secret we've all struggled in the last year or so and so have the charities and non for profits. And they were happily here for us during the entire covid ordeal. Do we hear them complaining? Nope.

So even if you don't resonate with anything else we do or represent we hope that this inspires you to bundel up a few gift cards and then feel all gooey, warm and fuzzy inside about it 💞

New to whole social enterprise and buisness sustainability stuff I've been doing a heap of research and development.most of it has been shocking and utterly terrifying but what keeps me balanced is that every little bit helps. And the more awareness and education we can bring to each other the bigger the chances are that those little bits will turn into big bits.

So do your bit. Even if it's a small bit. Even something as small as a gift card matters when we each use 230kilos of un recycled paper a year!

Meet our first featured artist. Amie! Check out her insta .art.photo

If you have read previous posts of mine you will know Amie inspired me to start Around We Go a few years ago when she gave me the Black Cockatoo card.

( You can buy it now at www.aroundwego.online )

It blew me away. And it's safe to say after having a look at the rest of her work I was sold. She is one inspiring lady. Having battled with some health and mental health challenges over the years and it has at times taken her away from her art. But regardless she keeps creating. That's why her chosen charity is
So jump on our website or check out Amie's work on her insta and do some drooling like I do... Buy a card or two from us and help support her and her work and the black dog institute 💗

Thank you!
