There's only one more month od winter and I'm so ready to be a little bit warmer again, (so is my electricity bill lol)
This month I am in full swing getting ready for the market on the 16th. Making cards, fathers day crafts and Fathers day activity boxes.
Super excited to have gotten a mention in the Adelaide Hills Pantry magazine about the market. You can read the full article here. 🤗
But here's a quick screenshot
I am trying a new thing out with my social media by putting fun names next to each day I have some idea what I am posting for each day because even though I dislike social media its called marketing people and marketing is what brings sales in and at the end of the day we are all just trying to make some sales right?!
So if you are anything like me and never know what to post each day here's a fun quick formula for you to go by or try making your own.
Making Monday - where I show what I have been making. Ie. New products or finished products.
Trusting Tuesday - something that makes my customers trust me. Why handmade is better
Working Wednesday - bts of something I have been working on
Theme it Thursday - the theme for the month, this month is fathers day.
Feature Friday - feature another person's business.

Six days later and I have been busy working on my market products. I have made all the diy bits and pieces for children to make Fathers day cards with me on the day including some example cards they can make.
I also got an email from a lovely women saying she had seen my lollipop holders in Lemon Fizz and was wondering if I could make 60 for her children to take to school on their birthdays so I have been making them as well.
These will be going on the website too under party favours.

Gosh its nearly the end of the month already, this year is flying past!!
I had an eventful day yesterday!
Yep my clothes line decided to snap on my while I was hanging out the clothes!!
Apart from my children messaging me all day about not wanting to do certain classes I made cards inbetween all that. I am making double the cards to go in both the Blackwood and Mt Barker Lemon Fizz shops as Claire is getting bigger card stands so more of my cards and other creators cards can be showcased. So im pretty pumped about that! 😁
The market went off without a hitch. It wasn't very profitable but I did sell a few craft kits and some diy card packs. I have asked my AI to help me think of some more things to put on my stall that people might like.

So I have been sick! I actually have Covid again!! Which sucks but I'm getting better I think and I'm here now so let me tell you about what's been happening on the work side of things.
While I was sitting in front of the TV I added all my Father's Day Cards to my website.
I also looked after my little Niece Peggy this month while she was sick and she showed me some of her art work which I dearly want to turn into cards.♡
I have been making and restocking cards to go in both the lemon fizz shops.
And isn't this just adorable. My daughter decided she wanted to make this jumper for her boyfriends birthday. So off we went to the shop to buy a cricut maker 3 yay! So we could cut out a giant spider in stencil form so she could spend the afternoon kissing the jumper lol. It turned out so cute and from someone that doesn't call herself crafty! I even got her to make a kissing card to go with his gift!♡
That's all for this month come see what I have planned for next month.
