H@Home Update: First Markets!!

Something very exciting happened at the end of January....

I held my first market stall!

I chose the Stansbury Seaside Markets for my first market adventure. I have been attending these markets as a customer for many years so it was somewhere I was familiar with.

I was very nervous to finally show my products off in person and to friends and family but they were all well received on the day and lots of positive feedback helped ease my nerves quickly.

Overall I am happy with my first market experience and met lots of other friendly stallholders who were nice enough to chat about their own experiences and offer lots of helpful advice.

With my newfound confidence I am excitedly planning my next market adventure and looking forward to showing off my homemade goodies to a wider audience.

Luckily for those of you who can't make it markets around Adelaide my products can still be found in my Etsy shop.

Details and dates of future markets will be posted on my facebook and instagram pages x

A Change Is As Good As A Holiday

I have recently noticed that I have been loosing inspiration and focus. So I took some time out to think about why and what to do about it and I've realised that I am not doing, writing and posting about all the things I really want to be.

I still love DIY, design and my Etsy shop but there are so many more facets of my life and loves. I also have an insatiable desire for travel, for food, to be entertained, to enjoy life.

The result... I have decided to makeover my blog. I want to make it a lifestyle destination. To celebrate I am working on a bit of a new look and maybe even some new branding. One thing that won't be changing though is my commitment to original content.

Exciting times ahead xo

Etsy Treasury - Australia

I've been a bit absent recently (very busily working on some projects around my home which will be revealed very soon!) but I was updating some info in my Etsy shop and thought I might play around with a Treasury.

This is the first one that I have curated, however I have had some of my products feature in other people's before.

I thought I would start with one close to home, literally.... I have chosen the theme of my first Treasury as AUSTRALIA.

Here is a sneak peak at some of my favourite Australia items on Etsy.

(Click on the picture to view the Treasury in more detail..... happy shopping!)
