We Are Moving.

For the last 18 months I have met the most amazing people here at The Old Dairy.
Coffee groups have come and enjoyed the garden and food, we even made the local news.

Being interviewed by Win news.

With my youngest daughter getting married and moving away, I am going to need the time to travel to visit my family. 3 of my 4 daughters live away and also my eldest son.
My Family

Sometimes things need to change and closing the shop is one of those changes.
Every thing else will stay the same.


I am still going to do the markets and sell all the same quality goods I had at the Dairy.

I will continue to stock the Trap-Art yarn and other yarns.



 I am still going to make my candles.





The best part is 
I am going to run more workshops.

The first soap making work shop for the year is on
Sunday 3/4/16 from 2pm-4pm





I will also hold other workshops 
Candles
Personal care
and others.


A new soap Peppermint and Lavender.









The workshops will now be held at the house in a new area we have there at the Shed.
Lots more room so there is able to be more to a class.
Friday craft will still be on each Friday, just all at the house now.






What will I do with The Old Dairy I hear you ask?
Well my brother is now going to live there, it will make a perfect little Granny flat for him.

So make sure you drop in to my facebook page


and see what markets I will be at and what work shops are coming up.....

CLosed and going Camping.....

I'm back
I have been a little slack in my blogging.
So much going on in the shop.



I have been doing more markets as well .....I have been going to markets to 
looking to see if I will do them.
I have settled on a few I will do, as well as some School Fete's.



I have made some beautiful vintage English china cake plates
in different sizes as well... 


I am closed over this Easter week end.
Time to sit and plan what to do next in the shop.
Time for a move around I think.


 Also there will be workshops coming up later in the year as well as a 
night time craft get together.


This is what I will be doing this week end in the quietness of the bush..

Till next week
Happy Easter

Cake Stands......


It was a quiet week in the shop last week as I only opened on Thursday.


It was busy though as we had craft in the morning, and I had a couple of drop by customers.


Below is my new batch of soap I am trilling.



It is men's shaving soap, I have done round and square bars.
 It will be ready in two weeks as I like 
to cure my soaps for at least 6 weeks.


I did manage to get 3 cake stands made on Thursday afternoon.


and yes it was a hard decision to make. All these plates I have 2 or more of so 
they were the ones I used.


The Old Dairy is open again tomorrow until Saturday.
I am back at the Stockyard Creek Markets on Saturday morning as well.


Have a great week.

Cake Stands....



 This week I am making Cake Stands.
Below is a cup stand that has proven very popular.
They are all made from Good English China.
The cup Plate Stands are $15


 My problem is
I Love all the plates I have, yes all 100 plus of them.
Some are in the shop the rest are hiding in the house. Then 
I have to make a chioce what plates to use for stands.



The Cake Stand below I need to drill holes into
as yet I haven't broken any but it is still nerve wracking choosing what plates to use
in case I do.
These Stands are 
$25


This week I am only open on Thursday 19th 
As we are doing a quick Road trip to Charters Towers for our Grandsons 2nd Birthday.



This Thursday is also our craft day
From 9:30 onwards.
We are all knitting and crocheting this week, so I have lots of new yarns in the shop


Enjoy your week
Make sure you take some time to do what you love...

Vintage wishes
