Folks, my Facebook account was hacked. Please DO NOT respond to or click on any bizaare ads that appear on my personal page, business page or body shop group! Some horrible cretin has been using my Facebook ad account to place fake scam ads, and racked up over 200 USD charged to my PayPal and bank account, as well as a random mastercard account (I don't even own a mastercard!) I've had messages from strangers asking if 'the shoes are fakes', people have been duped into spending up to £250 quid with this scammer, under my name and through my account!! Mortified and FURIOUS!! as for fb support... About as much use as a chocolate watch!!

Right folks, I'm finally organised!

Its the 1st of December eeek!!

I've been super busy behind the scenes and my group has taken a bit of a back seat to painting and getting organised. But, as promised, I have finally sorted the bumble santa for my charity raffle! All proceeds from this draw will go to COTE (children on the edge, amazing charity the body shop is working with, I will post a link to their website in the comments if you want to see more of what they're about 😍)

The raffle will run until the 14th of December to give me plenty time to get the prize out to the winner. The easiest way to run this is all in one group as it's also available to my body shop customers, so if you'd like to take part in the draw could you please pop over and join that group so I can keep it all in one place? Here's my body shop group link:

- Santa bumble, from Tact-Isle Toys hand painted by me
- French lavender pillow mist
- sleeping mask
- British rose hand cream
- full sized expert face mask (either coffee or almond milk and oats)
- 3x bath bubbles

🎄A. D. V. E. N. T. C. A. L. E. N. D. A. R. S🎄

I've been a bit AWOL on this page but it's because, on top of fulfilling current customer orders, my wee body shop group and keeping a small human alive, I've been working on these for weeks! It's taken me so long to design something different, I hate copying with a passion when it comes to peg dolls, the possibilities are endless with these so I really wanted to create something unique. So here they are, I'm just gauging interest at the moment so honest feedback is appreciated!

Excuse my drawing skills they are somewhat lacking with felt tip pens, I'm a million times better with a paintbrush this is just to give you a wee idea of how they might look 😍

What do we all think? I wanted it to be something to suit everyones budget, and am happy to arrange payment plans for them as long as they are paid for by the time they will go out for postage mid November 😍

The bags will be more festive colours, this is just what I have at home just now, il be ordering all the stock once I have an idea of how many I might need.

FULL calendar rrp £130 containing:

🎄15x 7cm little hat character pegs like (but way better than!) the drawings

🎄 9x 7cm reindeer pegs with all their names on their tummies, (each will have a different coloured nose)

🎄 one giant surprise festive peg for number 25 (think Christmas night scene, snow, tree lights, santa flying in the sky...)

🎄25 random acts of kindness, one note in each bag

🎄 25 numbered hessian bags, 25 little clothes pegs and twine to hang them up on

🎄 Sweet Treats from The Sweet-Topia Company

Cheaper Options:

🎄25 bags with minimum 5 pegs of customers choosing from the designs, price starting from £50 with mini sweet bags in every bag not containing a peg (£5 per additional peg doll)

🎄12 bags with 12 pegs of choice, a little sweet in each, and acts of kindness notes in each, for £75

🎄12 bags with 5 pegs of choice, kindness notes in every bag, and mini sweet bags in the ones with no pegs in (£5 per additional peg) for £40

🎄12 bags containing a nativity scene (Mary, Joseph, baby jesus, 3 wise men, shepherd, angel, 2 sheep and 2 donkeys) kindness notes and a little sweet in each bag for £75

Lastly, the idea of these is that they are built based on customer taste and budget so some things can be changed, for example I have snowman shaped pegs and wooden Christmas trees I can swap for some of the others, and the nativity scene can also be added into the 25 pegs set instead of some of the others on request. The penguins may need to be on normal shaped pegs I'm not sure yet if I can fit their faces on the little heads.

What do we all think??

These WILL NOT be posted out before mid November but are going to take a LOT of work and planning so I need to launch them ASAP to get them made up and ready for santa time! 🎅

I'm still here guys, beavering away with your orders and trying to juggle a million things at once 😂 speaking of which... Guess what???

irs nearly August, which means ADVENT CALENDAR LAUNCH MONTH!

So many options with these, to suit any budget. Payment plans will be an option, and throughout August, anyone who places a deposit or pays for a calendar, will be entered into a draw to win a MEGA JAR of sweets from the amazingly talented Sweet-Topia, who will also be providing the sweet treats for the calendars. Excited!!

What's in the calendars?

💥 One giant Christmas themed surprise peg doll for day 25

💥 A little 'random act of kindness' note for each day leading up to Christmas for your small people to do

A wee update folks

I have an order list as long as my arm, and while I try to say yes to every order, I'm slowly falling behind! So, for the next few weeks, I will be closed for new custom orders while I catch up on outstanding ones. Anyone with outstanding orders with me, please get in touch it you need them quickly and il prioritise. Going as fast as I can, I paint every night (last night was the first night off in a while!) I PROMISE your orders are worth the wait, and anyone still waiting il pop in a wee extra goodie when I send them out to you 😉 aside from that, the only new things coming up will be the ADVENT CALENDAR LAUNCH! I will post about that tomorrow and will be taking deposits for preorders from the 1st of August so keep your eyes peeled for a calendar to suit any budget, paid outright or on a payment plan 😍

One busy mamma just now and LOVING IT! 😍
