I’ve been a very naughty girl and have been thoroughly neglecting my blog for a long time.  In my defence poor health has put paid to many of my plans for this year, and will continue to do so focus for a few months to come, but it really shouldn’t be an excuse for finding time at least once a week to sit down and get typing.

Just been brain-storming a list of ideas, and have so many I now feel even more guilty for not doing it earlier!  Got my pile of notes and ideas spread out, an evening of writing awaits…

Was up at Earls Court for Top Drawer yesterday, the first big trade show of the year.  Overall not sure this is the type of show I will attend again as I’m really looking for smaller designer-maker types than weren’t generally present.  However I did get to meet up with a couple of regular contacts, putting names to faces, and also took advantage of the seminar and advice sessions which provided some good tips. Flare Communications provided some thought-provoking advice in their free one-to-one PR session, which has had my head full of ideas today. 

Best part of the day though was the buying!  Placed a jewellery order and picked up a few gorgeous clutch bags and purses made from vintage silk scarves to try out. Look out for these stunners online soon…

I’ve joined Twitter!  Never even looked at it before, but now I’m tweeting and following along with the rest of the world.  Today I even found a link to our fabulous bamboo socks have been tweeted by someone else!  Follow me by using the Twitter button on the right.

Hoping this will be a useful way to broaden my network, and keep my Tweeting customers up to date with all my news.  Happy Tweeting!
