Notebook Covers


Hi all, i hope you've had a lovely week! I've been having fun planning some future products (more to tell you on that soon i hope) but i did also manage to get some new notebook covers listed for sale too.

Notebook Covers


They come complete with a notepad made from recycled paper, which can just be slipped out of the cover and replaced when its full up.


They all feature Free Spirit Designs fabrics and are available from my website and Etsy shop now priced £8.99.

For an extra £3.00 they can also be personalised with a hand embroidered title.


Here they are getting ready to go to a local craft fair i've been asked to take part in...


... i usually stick to online selling so i'm not organised with displays and the like - i'm just popping everything in white wicker baskets and hoping for the best!

I am looking forward to a change of scene and chance to chat with customers and fellow stall holders though, i'll let you know how i get on!


In Other News...


Another thing that has put a smile on my face this week is the arrival of my new mini business cards from moo.com. I went for a range of my designs this time, to pair with coordinating products when i post them off to customers. I think they look rather cheery all together and as always with moo, the print quality is excellent .


Its been a week of cold but sunny days in these parts which has made for some lovely dog walks, i'll leave you with my whippet, River, soaking up those welcome rays :)


I'm linking this post with two fabulous linky parties - Handmade Monday over at Lucy Blossom and Happy Friday at Planet Penny. As always i look forward to catching up with lots of lovely fellow bloggers :) x

    I think your notebook covers are wonderful and even better if personalised. Your Moo cards look so pretty. River looks like he's enjoying soaking in the rays. Have a lovely weekend.

    If I had a dog, it would be a whippet; they always seem so lovely and gentle. Not sure it would be a good idea with our resident rabbit though! I love River's cowl (?) too. Beautiful notebook covers and business cards. Best of luck with the craft fair. x

      They are the loveliest dogs, v sweet natured and affectionate. As you have the rabbit first you might be okay if you started with a puppy so it could grow up with it... i'm not sure i'd leave them unattended together though! :/

      Thank you! x

    I love your Moo Cards, I've never tried the company but I've heard good things about the quality.
    White wicker baskets give a clean look at craft fairs, especially if you can place them at different heights. I love your notebook covers, your fabric is so pretty :)

      Yes, they're very reliable, not cheap but you do get what you pay for in terms of quality.

      Thanks Jan, that's great advice! :)

    Good luck with the craft fair, I'm sure you'll have lots of fun. Mini moo cards look great. We have 2 lurchers so totally understand about them loving heat and wearing snuggly coats. Mine are living in their hooded double fleeces during this cold spell!

    Your notebook covers are lovely - I'm sure you won't be bringing many of them home from the craft fair! We've used moo.com in the past, too, and been impressed with them. I like that you've used your own designs on your cards, they look very bright and cheerful! xx

    Love the notebook covers and those business cards look so cool.
    Baskets are ideal for fairs as easier to load and unload on the day

    Hi - lovely photo of River with the sun on his face :)
    Good luck with the craft fair (if I'm not too late!) - it'll be good to get feedback face to face and to meet other sellers and maybe pick up more tips
