Relaunching for Cosy Season!
We have been particularly quiet on socials for the last couple of months. We had a lot going on behind the scenes and in our personal lives, and after an absolutely crazy summer wedding season we took a couple of months to regroup, relaunch, and re-evaluate.
First up i'm pleased to say that our Christmas Seed Paper is now being uploaded to Etsy and Ebay, and this years new vintage christmas finds are also available on Etsy. You can get 20% on Etsy using code JINGLE2024.
Secondly we have expanded our preloved finds by quietly developing our Vinted Shop. We were finding a lot of our sourcing for vintage items we'd be offered preloved clothing and homewares that would otherwise be destined for the landfil. We rework these items, mending and repairing where needed, or simply laundering them so that they are presentable. Over the last year we have saved over 500 items from the landfill through this.
Finally, and on a personal note, you will remember that this time last year my husband Paul was diagnosed with Stage 4 Brain Cancer. After a gruelling year of Radiotherapy and Chemotherapy under the amazing care of the Royal Marsden Hospital he has completed treatment. We never thought we'd see another christmas, holiday, or birthday with him after his diagnosis last winter, but he has fought hard against this horrible condition and although he will be monitored for the rest of his life, right now we are enjoying a slightly less stressful time. And never one to rest fully, during his time under treatment he wrote and published his first book!

We do have lots more to come for the Cosy season, but right now we're going to enjoy the run up to Bonfire Night and early winter events. Stay tuned to our socials for updates and much more!
Simone, Paul, and all our lovely helpers ###
