Still on holiday...back soon :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

This will be short as i have my family over (from a very cold and snowy Sweden) for the holidays. I hope you will have a wonderful Christmas/holiday time with loved ones. As I will have lots to do in the next week or so, I am not sure if I will have time to post again before the new year... so I would love to take the opportunity now and thank all of you who love my stuff. My year has been so wonderful and above expectation - I am loving it!

Thank you very much

The weekend

On Saturday I traded at Allie's Attic in Paddington. It seems like not a lot of people knew that we were there and it was a real shame as there were so many wonderful stalls (including mine of course, lol). I guess you can get that with new markets and fingers x that it will pick up in the future. I did feel a little miserable I must admit but the highlight of my day was going home with these two gorgeous pillows/dolls? Aren't they sooooooooooooooo adorable? I got them from the lovely Lisa from The Read Thread and my daughter loves them as much as I do :)


One good thing though is that I had a chance to talk to so many wonderful stallholders and I hope I will see you all again soon.

Sunday was Bondi Markets day and it was amazing. This time I felt it was the real first Christmas shopping day (for me anyway) and had a few repeat customers from last Christmas which was great - I love repeat customers!

My fab new dresses :)

I road tested my new dresses today. I initially wanted to have some ready for the next Allie's Attic in Paddington on 12 December but I had some ready to come to Bondi with me today. It seemed quite a few people liked them as much as I do! (It's not wrong to love your own stuff is it?)


Here are a few snapshots of some of my newies.

Allie's Attic

As always I want to start by saying thank you to everyone that came and said hi. I had a great day but it was a little slow at times. The time went a little quicker by having great neighbours to chat to. My immediate neighbour was Sarah from rosebarnett, I would recommend to check our her blog as she has so many fabulous things. I also caught up with another equally talented Sarah from Gifts Created. Love her mushrooms!

This time I didn't take my camera when I walked around checking the other stalls so you will have to make do with photos of my stall :) If I don't see you at Bondi, hopefully I will catch up with some of you at the next Allie's Attic on Saturday 12 December.

And the winner is...

I know that you all just want to know if you've won (don't scroll down yet) but I first want to say thank you to everyone who left a comment for me. I am really going to take your suggestions on board. In fact, some of them I already have in the pipeline. Apart from the comments left here I also received a few emails (via Allie's Attic Facebook page) and they were of course also in the draw. My son picked the winners and...

Congratulations to the winners. For those of you who didn't win please don't despair as I will have more giveaways in the future. Apart from Cori as I already have your email, would patg_au and mum/toddler/babe please email me (meleifashion@optusnet.com.au) so we can arrange the best way of getting the prizes to you.
