Home London 2012

So this is a bit overdue, but last month I was selling at the Home show down in London. It was my first time exhibiting in a few years so I wanted to come back with a bang! I launched the new cushion collection and the Lotta bird cushions which had their first outing at a trade show.

My favourite part of doing the shows is setting up my stand. It's like decorating your house, but in miniature! 

It's a Holiday Hullabaloo!

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!

I'll be selling lots of new and one-off products as well as some old favourites...

Florida Fun

Ooh, I've been a bit quiet here lately! There's been so much going on recently. Holidays, new products, Christmas preparations and trade shows.

Last week I got back from a family holiday in Florida. In between stuffing my face with delicious seafood and trips to Disney World, I squeezed in some Florida style thrifting.

This weekend, I took a trip with my family down to Carlisle to visit Aunt Flora. We prefer to say Auntie Flora Doll, because it's just better. I managed to squeeze in a few visits to some charity and vintage shops in Carlisle and Windermere. Look at what I found!
