Busy Busy, this week has been all about the cards. Currently preparing these ready to package before I go away.

Lots of new ideas pending, I have a massive amount of new designs of cards ready to upload.

New cold cups, refreshing older designs and creating new ones.

And my favourite time if year, Autumnal designs.

Busy first day working officially from home.

Ive been on my holidays and left my etsy shop open, the cards have gone wild since ive been away still more to get through

Days like this make me realise I made the right decision.

And thats a wrap, its been fun, stressful and everything in between and ive enjoyed owning my own shop, but I much prefer working from home.

I dont see it as a defeat, I see it as 'ive tried it and wasnt for me ' i would always kick my self if I'd never done it.

My kids are my life, ive been blessed to be a stay at home mam for the last 5 years, balancing childcare between only me and dylan has been hard, we don't get weekends off, nights away anything like that so finding cover for work is impossible.

I can now work at my own pace, and build my etsy shop back up to how it used to be as ive neglected it a bit.

This page will remain and it will be where you can find all my new releases, order through messenger or on my personal FB.

I am on holiday next week so all messages will be answered when im back.

Thanks to everyone that came on my journey with me, for popping in for a chat, ordering gifts and personalised items.

And good luck to the new tenant with his new business venture

What a week this has turned out to be..... unfortunately unable to open the shop today and possibly tomorrow. So frustrating when its my final days of sales before I close the shop and continue from home.

On a positive i have been pushed to my limit on orders through etsy this week. 62 in 8 days and these are all multiples ive spent all my time off preparing and making these.

My washing machine broke this morning so im having to wait in for my new one to arrive tomorrow.

Pics of my never ending teacher cold cups ( theres still another batch to make )
And my cards which have been super popular atm

The last few weeks ive had to make a massive decision about the shop.

I have decided to not renew my rental contract in August and take my business back to where I started with my online shop and working from home.

It hasn't been a easy decision, as the shop has flourished and has been successful but at the expense of my own health.

One of the main reasons is my family, its a double edged sword, I opened the shop to provide for my family but In turn im not present for them, school holidays, weekends I have to work and they have to come with me.

So im taking my small business back to basics and running it how I like and when I like and to fit around the kids.

Ive loved working in the shop, ive loved having the space but it just isnt my time right now, ill always put my children first and right now im still needed.

I wanted to get this post on before the rumour mill starts, but im not closing my business, im just moving it back to what fits us best as a family.

My online shop is amazing and im so proud of what i have achieved with it

I intend to close saturday 18th July
( depending on what is left)

I am going to be running massive sales in the shop only

Thank you to all my lovely customers who have came in, come for a chat and all the lovely comments in the shop.

ALL CURRENT ORDERS STILL STAND AND ILL BE WORKING MY WAY THROUGH THEM AS I TRANSITION TO MY NEW OFFICE AT HOME
