July! already?

 

Wow, so June flew by in a whirl of making and designing, what started out as a break from clothing design has turned in to its own little business, Our Me&My soft toy range is proving incredibly popular and they continue to sell out at all our stockists a scary rate!

This week we have added a whale toy, taking a break from the world of floral and pastel patterns and going for something bold! these little beauties will be available at our Etsy Shop MeMyUk or selected designs are available at our stockists, Felix & Lily's in Islington, We Make London in Camden and Raindrops on Roses in St Albans....

 

 

an obsession with Elephants....

 

Now I'm a fabric hoarder, I tend to stick to the same key colours and styles in my designs, but like a magpie I will buy anything that catches my eye, and I had this beautiful brushed suede sitting on my shelf for nearly a year, there is only about half a metre of this and I couldn't bring myself to chop it up, then one night when my mind was racing with ideas I decided to try and make a suede Ellie and I love it! (its the cream one in the photo) Suede is a joy to work with, it is strong and doesn't fray, and it feels amazing! so I now have VERY limited stock of cream suede luxe Ellies. Wish I could keep them all, but that just wouldn't be fair!

 

These beauties will be available at my Etsy Shop shortly....

Me&My sunny days.....

 

We have had beautiful weather the past couple of days, and a flurry of activity on the designing front, I'm determined to fill up my Etsy shop with as many lovely things as possible, plus there has been a whole heap of friends who have either had a baby or are expecting one (myself included!) which always helps with ideas....

I have loved watching my ideas evolve, its been less then a year since I started all of this as a hobby! and only 6months of really making it a viable business, and in that time my style, has become cleaner, brighter and most of all very much my own :-) the next few months are seriously exciting, Me&My will be featured in a book, more stockists to be confirmed, and if I'm brave enough I may even attempt a trade show, all this while counting down until September when our family of 3 will become 4!

 

not getting very much done..........

So as the weekend draws to an end, its dawned on me that I have actually not done a lot! I did finish one Me&My design, that's been in my head for a while, but with orders for other designs coming in, its hard to find the time to do something just because you want to! this baby grow is available at my Etsy shop

I also spent much of the weekend trying to get my son interested in crafts, basically if it involves making monsters and gluing things to paper he is good to go! 

( I drew the monsters, as he just wanted to do noses and googly eyes)

new snaps!

So I finally got around to buying a new camera, after literally looking in every single cupboard, draw, nook and cranny for my charger, I realised my old camera wasn't actually that good, so off I went and bought some new tech....

well with all bright new shiny things I had to try it out as soon as I got home! here are a few snaps...

 

 

                                 The rabbits are available to order on my Etsy Shop- MeMyUk,

Happy Easter

Well, I have just got home from THE coldest fair I have ever done!, now I have done Christmas fairs outside, I have done fairs in the rain before, but today I have never ever been so cold in my life! despite the sun trying to shine, it was a tough day, however, lots of lovely comments, some sales and great feedback means it was worth it.... now time to photograph the new accessories range and put it up on Etsy.....plus some very exciting news to come...

HAPPY EASTER Everyone.

 

 

 

 

what a random day.....

well well, its been a rather strange day! I have been steadily prepping for the Easter weekend craft fair after taking a month off, and thinking I must get back into things, then all of a sudden I have orders coming in from all over the place, and I'm now as busy as I would hope to be...looking forward to Sunday, trading at Inn on the Park in St Albans, and keeping my fingers crossed that the weather is kind! here is a preview of some new ranges, I promise there WILL be better photos, but I really get excited about new products and have to share them! feedback as always is most welcome.
