Showcase! (My first!)

So things have been a little crazy around here recently, especially seeing as Mothers Day creeping up on us rather quickly!

And what do I do when things get crazy?? Well the answer is simple – I add to the crazi-ness by joining in my first Facebook Showcase!

So I joined a lovely group of ladies from the Collective Artisans. And I made a beautiful pink owl for the Sugar And Spice Showcase.

The showcase opened this morning – and it has sold already! I’m so excited!

I definitely recommend you pop over and have a little look at what else is on offer – as there is some amazing handmade items there. And tomorrow morning their second showcase will open. That one is themed – Frogs and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails!

I didn’t enter into the second one as I wasn’t sure how I’d go. Now I wish I did!

Thanks for stopping by!

My New Crafty Business

For the last 5 or so years I have run my own little handmade business, (House of Nicnax) making owl doorstops! I must admit that the ‘owl’ craze has hung around longer than I could ever imagined! Never did I think that my little hobby would turn into a business and that I would be selling regularly at markets, online and through Facebook!

It really has been a crazy little ride for me! I have enjoyed it so much along the way – and I don’t have plans to stop anytime soon! While people love and want my owls – I will continue to make them!

But in saying that – It was time I expanded a little.

Back in July I started to sell crafting supplies as well. I love being able to buy a whole range of gorgeous supplies, and sell them to amazingly clever people to create some awesome handmade items!

As of last weekend, I took a huge step. I decided to make the “supplies” my new business! So now I run TWO businesses!!!

So now I would like to officially introduce you to ……….The Little Craft House

My sales for TLCH will be through Ebay, however I have created a Facebook and Instagram account as well to promote any sales, new products and to hopefully share some of the clever creations people make!

I’d really appreciate it if you pop over and check them out!

So that’s about it for now. Lots of late nights ahead for me!

Wish me luck!

Happy crafting!

Perth Makers Market Giveaway!

Calling all people of Perth (Australia)!!!

You may or may not have read recently that I am going to be attending a new market that is starting up in Perth on February 7th. It’s called the Perth Makers Market and features over 70 local handmade crafters.

As the launch of a new market is always special, Erin, the co-ordinator, has put together an a-maz-ing competition! The prize is valued at over $450!! (and includes one of my owls!!)

The prizes!

So if your in Perth (you must be able to collect your prize on the day) head over to the Perth Makers Market Facebook page and enter the comp! AND if your on Instagram, head over to their Insta page, as there is another comp running through that too!

And even if you don’t win, (which I have my fingers crossed that you do win) come visit me and the other awesome stall holders on the day. It’ll be a great day, and you can get your hands on some really unique pieces!

Thanks for stopping by…and good luck!
