Open Shedudio Day One.

The finishing touch.

The DP bought me three hanging baskets (from Home Bargains - these beauties were £5.99 each - which is bloody amazing when you look at what's in them and the baskets and chains)



If you are particularly observant you may have noticed the paving is wet.  It rained, not heavily but constant .  So it was humid.  So the breathing was not as brilliant as yesterday but nae bad.


My 3 browsers.  


And my bargain bag 50% off.

My first visitor was Photogifts.  Bearing gifts!


He had made me a mug.  Aw.
A personalised mug.

A coaster too.

And - a bottle of wine.  

Well I just have to put an order in now do I not.

Following him there was the Isla Art and Crafts Group from Keith.  

A fellow local artist bearing Rock Cakes.  

The DP provided refreshments including a Banana cake he had made.

A most enjoyable afternoon.  

Shattered now!  But worth it.  Lots of cards sold.  Which the DP advised me had paid for the hanging baskets!

Success.

On a final note I asked my Joiner to give me business cards and I have already, hopefully, got him a new customer.  Everyone was so impressed with the shedudio.  Photogifts chap had seen the before and was well impressed.

Happy me.

The hanging baskets look lovely and well matched in the blue. I absolutely love the mug with the cute rabbit and the matching coaster. Have a good weekend.

Lovely hanging baskets, not seen any in our Home Bargains round here, though I have seen silk flower ones in the store. Glad to hear that you had a good breathing day yesterday. I love the mug and coaster. If you order any mugs, will they just be available from you, or will they reach shops throughout England too ?

Just catching up in blogland after a hecktic weekend. I'm glad it went so well for you and I am sure everyone enjoyed their visit. I hope it's not too hot for you tomorrow (we were roasting again today although we were outside, so there WAS a breeze!).
