Hello!  Just popping in to say hi.  I have quite a few orders on at the moment (and a busy family life) and I am not the most disciplined person when it comes to regular posting.  The thing is, I believe that is what people like.  Regular posts.  Do you agree – put you hand up if you do.   I would love to know what you think.

So, this is what I plan to do.  And why.  On Fridays I am going to showcase a fellow Etsy seller that I have some connection with.  Mostly because I love their things, probably because I have stepped over the line and made a purchase from them and have been super satisfied.  You are welcome to make suggestions.  The Etsy platform is amazing.  It’s customers and sellers have been truly grand to me and I just think it’s nice for them to be recognised for all that creative inspiration they give us.  I am also hoping this feature will keep me on a good blogging path and that you might be interested in sharing my finds.

Firstly, I would like to share Ormolu.  A very sweet stationery shop run by Kaitlin in California.  I first contacted Kaitlin before our wedding last year to ask if it was possible to do some custom signage for our tables.  I was looking for a vintage scroll frame with our table names in the centre.  Our tables were named after the places that the Viking and I have lived together (from Bondi to Jolimont, Frederiksberg to Coogee).  They were perfect.  Kaitlin also did a little sign for our table centres.  The idea was to have a small posy for each lady at each table arranged to look like one centre piece.  The sign was to let the ladies know to ‘take a posie before you go’.  We were very happy.  So I often check back to see what Ormolu has in store.  I always find pretty gift  and journalling tags, paper buttons, and even DIY paper chains.  And great shipping prices.  I am a repeat offender here!
