Happy New Year - Bring on 2012

2012-01-03T15:18:00.003+10:00

Hi Everyone
Wow....I can't believe that the last time I posted was at the beginning of November. That is crazy. Well, life has actually been crazy since then.

Christmas has gone and was fabulous...New Years has gone and was great and super low key and we are now on the up hill run to 2012. I wonder what it will bring.

2011 was an amazing year for our family and for business.

Lets see.....Handmade Heaven Online has taken off and is actually working out just as awesome with sales online as in the actual retail boutique. This works out awesome so I can be a WAHM and raise my 2 boys.

YES, 2 boys :)
We have a new addition to our little family. Little Fletcher joined us on the 12/12/2011. He is totally adorable and is a fab little brother to Cooper. Here is a photo of my boys :)

What can I see for 2012....
Increase business for Handmade Heaven :)
Increase business for Facebook Promotions part of Handmade Heaven.
I have a lot of work ahead of me and I am very excited to what this year will bring.

So in saying that....I have a few spaces left on the website for a couple of handmadies to join. You can read the guidelines as to how the website works HERE
I am full at the moment with regards to Facebook Promos, but will let you know when spaces become available on that side of things.

So, Happy New Year and I hope that 2012 is YOUR YEAR xox

Thank you

Hi Everyone

I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for being so supportive of Handmade Heaven.
Today, I closed and opened the doors for the last time to my dream, but I am very excited to be starting my new adventure of selling online through my website which you can see HERE.

The main reason and really the only reason why I decided to close was because we are adding to our family with baby #2. I have 6 weeks to go with baby being due 18th December. I am excited to be at home, raising a family and also working as well.

It has been 2.5 years in The Old Flour Mill and I have loved every bit of it. All the handmadies who trusted me with their beautiful items to all the wonderful and hundreds of customers who supported our handmadies by purchasing beautiful handmade wares. They can still do this, but just online. I hope to provide these same and many more customers with a fabulous online shopping experience...

I have some new handmadies on board as well as some "oldies" that have followed me over from shop to website...

So, a big thanks to you all and I will see you on FACEBOOK or around the Market Scene

Facebook - Closing down but Re-opening again online sale :)

2011-10-08T18:55:00.002+10:00

Hi Everyone

I just wanted to let you all know that Handmade Heaven is having a sale on FB on Tuesday starting from 9am. It will go for 2 weeks, however, I am not sure how long these heavily discounted handmade goodies will actually last.

HERE is the event listing...

Hope you can make it....

I have created a website at www.handmadeheaven.com.au if you wanted to check it out.
Looking at launching Mid November (at this stage)

One baby closes and another one is born :)

2011-09-21T11:53:00.000+10:00

Hi Fellow Bloggers :)

I have not been looking forward to having this "discussion" with you all...Then I look at my title that I have written and I am excited as to what the future brings not only for me and my family, but Handmade Heaven.

Sadly, I could not find a buyer for Handmade Heaven. Oh yes, there was ALOT of interest but sadly no one wanted to take the next step. So, this got my mind ticking overtime. What can I do to keep Handmade Heaven going? OF COURSE...create an online store and run it from home while I raise my family.

Oh, Handmade Heaven has had its ups and downs (more ups then downs)....I don't look at this as a failure. I have been a successful (and original) handmade retail boutique in Ipswich for over 2 years. I have built up such an amazing fan base and customer base that I could not imagine abandoning you all! The only difference is, customers will not physically be able to come into the shop and purchase...everything will be online, the customer service will still be awesome as will the amazing product supplied to the website....and this is the trend of shopping in the world...So I am excited to step into that huge trend.

I already have so many wonderful handmadies on board the new and amazing adventure and I can't wait to launch in November...so keep your eyes peeled.

The Handmade Expo is going bigger and stronger than ever. So my presence will still be at the market at Bundamba and wherever else we decide to expand it to. So many awesome possibilities out there and so much encouragement and support.

So, in saying that. Handmade Heave's last trading day will be Saturday 29th October. There will be some massive sales leading up to the closing day. I would love to see you all in here with your smiling faces before the doors close...so pop it in your diary as an EVENT...not as a CLOSING DOWN DAY....

Big kisses and cuddles to you all

(REPOST) from The Handmade Expo

2011-04-19T09:46:00.000+10:00

Hi Everyone

We just wanted to let you know of a great opportunity that has come up under The Handmade Expo banner...

The Handmade Expo is taking out a 9m x 3m site at the Ipswich Show in May (13th, 14th & 15th)...
The Ipswich Show is a massive 3 day event with approx 25,000 potential customers looking and potentially purchasing your items.
We did this event back in 2009 and found it to be a successful day for 90% of people involved.

We have made 2 packages available...

Package #1
$170
Selling and promoting your product and business...Now, you don't need to be there to sell your product, we will do this on your behalf. If you take us up on this offer, we will require your items to be either dropped off at the showgrounds on the Thursday 12th or if you were to send your product, we will need to receive it on or before the Wednesday 11th May. We are not taking a commission on sales...everything you sell, you get back..We will require you to price your items (perhaps with your business card attached).
We would require approx $500 worth of stock from you to make it worth your while. This will give us stock to "restock" with all the time.

Package #2
$50
This package is promotion only. So a whole stack of your business cards or flyers which we will place on a promotions table for potentially 25,000 customers to take..Once again, if you would like to do this offer, we will require your promotional material to be dropped off at the showgrounds on the Thursday 12th or if you were to send your promo material, we will require it in our hot little hands on or before Wednesday 11th May...

We believe that this is a great opportunity to sell and promote yourselves and would love to help you....

If you are interested in either of these, we will require your payment on or before the 22nd April (we have extended payment date)

You can direct deposit into

GIFFORD, BAIN, HASTED
BSB: 064417
ACC: 10651469
Please use your name and show as a reference...

We hope that you are keen to be involved.

2011-01-19T10:59:00.005+10:00

Hi Everyone

Finally, I am back on deck in my little piece of heaven...
So much has happend since xmas, from Holidays in Melbourne, to Floods at home...I want to share my journey with you, both amazing and scary...

So, xmas was an amazing time. We had Micky, Dan and their 2 boys, Jordan and Jackson, Mum and Dad and us over xmas eve, had a pyjama party and all woke up on xmas morning to Santa being (very generous) and also us being all together. We had a great gourmet bbq breaky and then we then headed over to Mum and Dad's house for xmas lunch. We were going to go for a swim, but we did have a rainy xmas day...but had a great day hanging out inside.....

On the 28th December, the girls (me, Mum, Micky, Grandma, Aunty Jacky and Cousin Jessica) scooted to Melbourne for 4 days (mum, jacky and grandma went for 9 days). We had the most amazing time...eating lots of great food, drinking lots of great coffee and wine. PLUS THE SHOPPING, oh, the shopping...
We caught up with extended family as well which was really lovely. Trammed it and bused it and of course flew (which i do not enjoy at all)!!!
I visited some of my favourite places....Olive Grove, Meet me at Mikes and In.cube8r (which sadly was not open, but needed some sort of proof that I had been there)

We came back on new years eve to spend with our husbands and kids who missed us dearly as did we...But it was nice to have a break from the real world!!! The weather in Melbourne was amazing too...

Then came the floods...I was supposed to come back into Handmade Heaven on Tuesday 11th Jan...but this is when it all took place. We evacuated Mum and Dad from their home in Laidley which we thought was lower ground, so Monday night we had another pyjama party. Tuesday came around and we started getting text messages from the SES saying we need to evacuate to higher ground immediately...then came a knock on the door from SES advising the same thing. So, we grabbed our packed bags and walked to higher ground (whilst crossing a raging river on a foot bridge). We walked to council yards where there were about 100 people. They did not have the facilities to look after all of us there, so they helicoptered us out to the Laidley Hospital and then bused us up to the Laidley Highschool where we spent the night on the floor. We were dirty, smelling, wet and did not know what we would be going back to the next day. So a nervous wait for everyone there....

Come Wednesday we went back home after lunch to find that we were one of the lucky ones, as were mum and dads home (apart from the pool)... Mimmi's (mums shop) at Forest Hill was not so lucky with the flood waters creeping into her shop up about 6 inches. Quite a bit of damaged stock, but Mum, Mitch, Dad, Mum and Nicole (from Hot Toffee) got stuck into it and cleaned it all up in one day. Amazing and hard work by all...

Come Thursday, we headed into Handmade Heaven to check that everything was ok here, which it was. Grabbed some stock from Bubba Chenille (Eco Cloths), Cute as Buttons (towels, washers, singlets, shirts) and Spoil & Indulge (soaps) and scooted up to the main evacuation centre at the Ipswich Show grounds to donate...A big thanks to you guys for this...it was very well received for all...

Come Friday, Mum and I headed back to the evacuation centre to help. We spent a couple of hours folding and sorting clothes for the people effected by the flood. We spoke to a lot of people, helped them find what they needed (as I am sure the last thing they felt like doing was spending hours up there sorting through needed things) and was a shoulder to cry on. My heart goes out to all of you and only wish I could do more for you.

That weekend was spent cleaning up our own yards from debris, etc....

On the Monday (just gone), Mum and I received a donation of 400 bottles of water from the Lockey Valley Ulysses bike club, so we drove around to all the effected areas in Ipswich handing out bottles of water. This is seriously the least we could do for all of these people trying to get their homes on the foot path. The devastation that we saw was heartbreaking. Words can not describe it. I can not even comprehend what these people are going through that have lost everything.

So, a bit of a diary of events that have happend since xmas. I never thought that I would go through this. I have heard about the 74 floods ever since I have moved to Ipswich in 1996. The amazing efforts from volunteers, defense, family, friends and strangers has been amazing and even though I did not lose anything, I wanted to thank them for all their hard work and efforts...

A big thanks to everyone who has sent messages, called and emailed us to see if we are ok. WE ARE xoxox

At the moment, I have dedicated my front feature cupboard to handmade items where 100% of sales go direct to the Flood Appeal. Current Handmadie or Not, EVERYONE is welcome to put a couple of items on this table. I am hoping to raise quite a bit to help grow the fund which will go out to well needed families...

Big Kisses and Hugs

Happy Birthday to US

2010-10-01T10:33:00.002+10:00

Hi Everyone

I wanted to take this small opportunity to wish my beautiful sister, MICKY, a Happy 30th birthday for tomorrow.
For those of you who do not know, Micky is my twin sister, so guess what...It is MY birthday too..LOL

We have had the most amazing 30 years together...we are not only twin sisters, but we are best friends. Micky is gorgeous, adorable, spunky and a very honest and open person and this is just a few awesome qualities that she has.

We are having a big DOUBLE birthday bash tomorrow night which we are really looking forward too (haven't had a double party since our 18th)....Wow...seems so long ago....

Just wanted to share with you all how proud of a sister I am....

NEW HANDMADIE = Galozels

2010-09-30T13:08:00.002+10:00

Hi Everyone

This is very exciting...I am stoked to have Eliza from Galozels on board in Handmade Heaven.

What are Galozels you ask...well, they are colourful little critters who live in weed patches. They spend their days getting into mischief, and Eliza spends her days writing their adventures down.

So, what you can get in Handmade Heaven is a choice of 3 published books and a Galozel to go with the book. These books can be personliased with your child's name as well, which is a really unique and wonderful idea.
This is a great xmas/birthday/anytime gift. The recipient will not be dissapointed.

I am sorry it has taken me so long to post this.

Friday night was the Quest Business Achiever Awards. Handmade Heaven was up for the RETAIL/SERVICES category.
I could not make it as I had The Handmade Expo on the Saturday and I would have not been able to do both.

So, Friday night, I was hanging out with the Fam watching my 5 year old Nephew race around the BMX track and received a phone call from the Di..Licious girls advising that Handmade Heaven had WON WON WON.....

So, I would like to take this opp to thank everyone who voted for Handmade Heaven....My Family....My Friends.....Handmadies....Customers....without any of you, this achievement would not have been possible.

New Handmadie - Buttoney Boo

Hi Everyone

A big warm welcome to Sally from Buttoney Boo.
These are soooo different.

They are the most amazing pouches...(I am not sure if pouches are the right word)!!! They come in 2 sizes in Handmade Heaven, however the range available upon order is impressive. The fabrics are funky and unusual. They are covered with the most devine pvc...it is so soft to touch and what is even more impressive is they are machine washable. Thats right...you turn them inside out and throw them in the wash. AWESOME...

CHECK IT OUT:

Welcome Sally :)
