On Saturday 10th December I'll be donning my Made In The Shade cap (it's never been off, if truth be told) and selling at our Holiday Hullabaloo!

Mondays are my day off from working at The Maisonette. But as you can imagine, they're not really days off. There's still work to be done elsewhere. Working on my own designs, Made In The Shade work, cleaning, shopping and loads more get squeezed into every Monday.
This morning, while running errands I couldn't resist popping into my favourite East End charity shops. I'm allowed to go shopping on my day off, right? Yes. I'm now the giddy owner of a new collection of souvenir tea towels.
Total spend: £4.50

HOOT HOOT! Indeed! Saturday's Made In The Shade was a huge success. The event was organised by myself, Carrie Maclennan, Suzanne Smith, Jo Gurney and Lynsey Smith. There were almost 2000 visitors through the doors despite it being such awful weather. So, if you never made it down to The Lighthouse, you missed out! There were so many beautiful products but I was so busy running around trying to move signs, eat lovehearts, dance to the amazing soundtrack and try to figure out how to work the walkie talkie thing that I never had time to shop.
But I won't fret! Made In The Shade returns on 6th and 7th December for an amazing festive shopping weekender. It'll be the biggest yet with live music from The Parsonage and a special guest all the way from London - vintage hair stylist Nina Butkovich-Budden from Nina's Vintage Hair Parlour. She'll be styling our lovely tresses (and yours!) to make sure we're all looking as glamourous as ever.
