Radford Station House

03/12/2022

21 Days until Christmas i wish everyone a wonderful Christmas! 2023 will be the year for bouncing back to business with my little Radford Station House.
Hopefully i catch up with everyone. 🎄🎄🎄🎄
Below:
A little cheap Wreath i threw together.
Vines from up the road, bottle brush branches painted in splashes of gold paint, and i had the bird in my chrissy box, for memory i paid 80c on a sale table! Cost... $1.80 You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on decorations. You can find them anywhere. 😁
Have a great Christmas! 🌲

Not sure what's going on...im trying to reply to your lovely comments, but for some reason it keeps coming up that there is a problem with my replies???? I'll get it sorted asap. But thankyou for the kind comments.

Im still here guys! This has been bigger than Ben Hur 😁 i have so much to sort out, plus working more hours at my other job. Its been a bit hard working out the work, life, family balance. I also signed up to a design course! Trying to get time to get my shop sorted has been somewhat harder than i thought. Thanks for hanging in there.
I'm still going to sell New, Old and Vintage items.
I do love combing the three. Below is what i have done at home in my little Railway Cottage combining the three. The before photo is when we came to look at the house. And of course the after.

Hi everyone. Two weeks and posts will start with some bits and bobs for sale. Can't wait to get back into it again. I've missed my shop so much. Have a great weekend !

As soon as i have my shed ready I'll be hiring the amazing Gab, from Virtually Gab. She came highly recommend. Social media is certainly the way to go.
Have a great week everyone

Fun fact: Working with a virtual assistant for only 2️⃣ hours per week can skyrocket your success

You don't need to hire a Virtual Assistant full time.

People are reluctant to find assistance, because they don't want to commit to it for the long-haul.

But, you don’t have to !! 💗

Hiring a virtual assistant is not a life-long commitment; it needs to work for you as long or as little as it benefits you.

When you sign up with Virtually Gab, your minimum commitment is 1 month.

1 month = 8 hours
8 hours = 2 hours p/week.

If, at the end of the month you no longer need assistance, you don't need to commit to another.

⚡️Imagine what you could achieve with an extra 2 hours EVERY week!!

One month still too scary? I also offer one-off projects with custom quotes to suit your budget and your project.

❌ Stop committing to things that don’t serve you.

I am here to serve your business for what it NEEDS 🙌. I work with multiple clients, some for a month or two, some going on 4 years...

Do you have a one-off project coming up that you need to outsource? Or looking for regular assistance with work flows? Book a discovery call, or DM me to see if this is something I could assist you with.

DM me: ‘VIRTUAL ASSISTANCE’ for more info 🌈

This is a bit long winded, so grab a cuppa and sit down for a couple of minutes. ( i apologise in advance for my terrible grammer! )
Since I had my shop at Peak crossing and absolutely loved it, upclycling, finding items to upcycle and selling new and old homewares, The shop unfortunately was sold, devastated me!
My husband Rob made the shed up the back yard into shop. I thought it was a great idea. But......
In the last 2 to 3 years so much happened. I had health issues, i developed an Autoimmune disease, which knocked me around for a fair time. ( all good now, under control) Covid. I was working heaps at my other job. Some personal issues. People you thought were good people, turned out to be awful people. There is alot of people you come across out there aren't true to themselves, and have an agenda, they are only interested in what your doing business wise to undermine you and do exactly the same. It's unfortunate, but it happens alot. All these things took a real toll on me.
One minute i wanted to build the business back up next minute i had no drive to even look at it.
I decided when on holidays in Melbourne over April recently i got heaps of inspiration from going around to heaps of businesses that did similar to my business. I got really inspired, especially buy my friends business in Victoria The Sassy Rabbit, i couldn't wait to get it going again. Then without going into detail, i had some news i wasn't expecting, i flew back to Melbourne for another week. Im home now.
That visit made my think alot about everything. It really had a profound effect on me.
One being i never write about my thoughts and life indepth, and yet here i am doing just that. I realized I've had all these excuses why not to get my shop up and going.
I suppose it has been a bit of fear of failure, what if people don't like what i do?, what if im judged? Everytime i got inspired, i felt anxious, then lost all motivation. Now i know i just have to stop letting time go by and just hook in. I absolutely love what i do. So over the next few weeks, ill get things going and be alot more organised and fight my fears! Thanks to all the customers and friends that have always been there supporting me. ❤🙏

And she's done...
Before and after.

01/04/2022

Having been absent from my shop...my dream you might say. Due to health issues, lack of motivation, lack of idea's, so many more reasons, too many to mention.
I'm on annual leave from my job for a month. Home until the 6th, then off to Melbourne for three weeks. I intend to come home with ideas, alot of motivation, and be inspired to put everything into my dream. Im visiting a few shops and places while im in Victoria...one of them being the Sassy little Rabbit, which happens to be owned by the beautiful Linda, whom i just happened to grow up with, im sure I'll be inspired by Linda. 😊
The pic below is obviously a small locker cabinet, im going to do it up for my husband's office! I'll post the after in a couple of days.
Hope everyone is keeping well. Have a wonderful weekend! ❤

I do sincerely apologize for my absence. New year.. new ideas.

Sorry I've been a bit absent of late. Life certainly dosen't go to plan sometimes.😢 Without airing my dirty laundry, this year, especially you might say, has not been my best year emotionally, i will get back on track and get the shop back to selling my goods very shortly, i hope you all understand, im so sorry i have been inconsistent.
