So I went to the @minding_her_business event today they were talking about just being happy and grateful with where you are now and what you already have.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As business owners we’re always looking ahead and forget to appreciate the present and things we’ve already achieved.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So stop and take a moment to think of all what you currently have and what you’ve already achieved.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We also had to think about what 3 things we couldn’t live without.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are your 3 things?

I’m so happy that our paper making kit is so well loved 💕
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love the thought of all those families soon to be making beautiful creations together. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Spending time together and also doing something hands-on and creative.

Something to ponder over this Saturday.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m sat in my garden overlooking the pool, having a cuppa (of course), kids are at swimming, but the best best best news is that as I type, our ducted cooling is getting fitted!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Being a new-ish Brit in Queensland, I can’t get used to the humidity and it makes me not feel joy! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The idea of working from home with no direct cooling in my office or garage work space was filling me with dread, with the summer fast approaching.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No anymore... bring on the sun and heat, as I’ll be smiling in my studio and garage (yes we’re cooling the garage too) and drinking a hot cuppa without being sweaty 😝

Our Let’s Create Friendship Necklaces kit is a very special gift.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not only is it a beautiful kit for a child to make their own necklace out of clay and wooden beads, but this kit teaches a child about the joy of giving and not just receiving.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our kit includes all the materials to make 2 reversible necklaces; 1 for the child who’s received the kit, and one for them to make for their best friend, including a little Poppy & Daisy gift bag.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This kit a a top pick of Daisy’s and she loves making beautiful handmade necklaces for her friends.

I saw this and thought how cute is this?
Flowers do actually make me smile!
I love seeing beautiful flowers in the wild, I love seeing people carrying a bunch of flowers, knowing they are going to be gifted to make someone else smile and I love being given flowers myself, as I don’t often buy them.

I think flowers can make us feel a sense of positivity. When we feel positive our minds are open, we think more deeply and are more creative and productive.
Stopping to smell the roses can give us a welcome mindful pause in our busy day.
Even a brief moment looking at nature or breathing it in allows our minds to rest and restore. It can reduce stress and bring a sense of calm and clarity, just for a few moments even.

When we appreciate the small things in life it gives us a sense of joy.
Appreciation is good for our hearts and souls and something we all could do with feeling more often I think.

I loved this quote as it made me feel warm and fuzzy, but I googled the meaning and apparently it was meant that the flowers are laughing at people for believing we own the land.
Either way, it brought a smile to my face, just like flowers do!

Have a lovely evening!.

Such fond memories of our photoshoot day with Daisy & Poppy and photographer @debibrettphotography.
Debi’s girls just happen to be exactly the same age as mine and we both just happen to be Brits living in Oz and both running our own businesses, so we’re never short of conversation 😝
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Some people you’re just meant to meet, don’t you think?

I’m getting a lot of messages from people about how they used to do crafts when they were little, but somehow stopped as they got older.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So far, our handmade paper kits and flower press kits have been the most popular which is so exciting to see!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I’m aiming for our Let’s Create kits to inspire more little creatives.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m hoping that as parents, we can take a breath from our busy worlds and go foraging for flowers together to press and make beautiful crafts or make fun varieties of handmade paper from junk mail and turn them into gorgeous paper goodness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love that we can potentially inspire us adults to inspire our children to get hands-on again together and back to nature.

Sleep is overrated right?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Who else can’t switch off when there’s no line between work, home and fun?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is why I try to watch a bit of mind numbing tv after I turn my computer off, so that I’m not going from work straight to sleep!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Currently the Bachelorette is my escapism 🤩
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else watching this season?

Morning!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s a beautiful sunny-but not hot Queensland day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get to walk Poppy & Daisy to school, come home to my lovely home, make a cup of tea and work on my dream business with no restrictions to my day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m feeling like one lucky lady!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What are you grateful for today?

I’ve had a few challenges in the last 6 months in my desire to create eco products entirely plastic free.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m spent many days researching different options and testing galore. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Not only is my kit contents eco conscious, but my packaging, stickers and containers my products are housed in.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of my challenges on this journey to reduce plastic toys in landfill has been how to store air drying clay without a plastic ziplock or vacuum sealed bag!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Plastic has its uses and one of them is to create airtight seals.
But after testing and stressful days and sleepless night’s, I believe I’ve nailed it and found a workable solution.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This game is very challenging some days but gloriously satisfying too!

Well I’m feeling totally chilled this Sunday!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A bit of fresh air at the markets, a bit of down time, bit of work, but of craft, bit of gardening (well hubby) and lots of tea!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The way Sunday’s should be 😊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How did your day shape out?
