dusk Bridal Fair 2012 – 10-11 March {appearances}

16 Feb

I’m gearing up for the dusk Bridal Fair 2012 at the moment. (Actually it would be fair to say I’m struggling to find my mojo at the moment, but I’m trying hard!). I’m at the same booth as last year (43) and really looking forward to it. The dusk Bridal Fair always feels less frantic to me than some of the others and that’s great because it gives me time to really chat to the visitors which, of course, is the reason I exhibit there in the first place!

I’m also quite excited to be launching my latest candle fragrance at the fair – and displaying some candles in my recently acquired reclaimed glassware (I love the Salvos!). No lit candles for me at the fair but the cold ‘throw’ (fragrance strength) on this one is good enough.

I also intend to launch a new range of wedding stationery which I hope to be able to offer eventually as a DIY option.

So lots to look forward to … now I just have to get my inspiration in gear! :-)

This year the dusk Bridal Fair has some super prizes on offer and all the usual quality exhibitors, fashion shows and displays. If you visit then be sure to come and say hi!

Candle Winner – January 2012

1 Feb

How exciting, I have my first candle winner for 2012!

And the winner is Stephanie! Congratulations to you Stephanie, my e-mail is on the way.

Every month someone, like Stephanie, wins one of my medium apothecary candles. To be in with a chance all you have to do is purchase a candle from me and then take a few minutes to complete my survey. It’s that simple, so what are you waiting for?

Christmas Cards – 2011

25 Sep

So we are into September now and I’ve started on my Christmas cards. It may seem early, but I know from experience how time can creep up on you!

So far I’ve managed to use up the remnants of last year’s papers and I’m very pleased with the results:

I’ve also done a bit of work on another design new for this year:

I’m looking for new papers and new inspiration now. What have you seen around that you like? Are you getting your plans in place for Christmas?

Wedding Guest Tree

DIY Wedding Guest Book Tree

Fancy something a bit different from the usual Guest Book for your guests to sign? Why not try a wedding guest tree? The options for this are myriad.

The basis is a tree – this can be an actual tree (or arrangement of twigs!) or a printed/painted/drawn picture of a tree. The idea then is that your guests write their tidings on a small tag and hang them on the tree (for the real tree version) or use a thumb print and write on the picture. Of course, there’s nothing to stop you from coming up with your own idea …
