Farewell 2010

Well as the last day of 2010 draws to an end I have been reflecting back on the year that has been. Wow so much has happened for me and my family, the biggest thing we did was make the move from NZ to Australia in January, which was pretty stressful preparing for that move and its hard starting fresh but we are certainly getting on our feet now and really enjoying what Australia has to bring :)

I had no idea at that time how far forward that would bring my little work at home business. I thought I did pretty well back in NZ but wow over here its been so very overwhelming! I can't believe how hard I have made my little sewing machine work and how many cute little products have been produced and little faces I have made smile :) Seeing those smiles makes every bit of handmade work worth it!

Within the first 3 months of starting up here I had accomplished over 100 orders and as of today I have more than tripled that! How on earth have I managed all that on my own? Some friends have called me superwoman but I don't feel like superwoman lol I have to admit I have pushed myself quite a bit but I had no idea at the extent. All I can say is I try my best and I put in all the handmade love I possibly can into each item knowing how much it will be loved back :)



I am so very grateful to all my customers through 2010 and so lucky to have so many loyal customers who keep coming back! Thank you to all of you, you know who you all are! I am also so very lucky to have made some very good friends through my page, what would I do without you all! I am so glad to be friends with you all and enjoying meeting those who I am able to meet in person and next year I look forward to making new friends and meeting more of you :)

The hardest thing for me in 2010 was loosing my mum. It was something that happend very quickly and will take me a very long time to come to terms with. She was someone I always shared my dreams with about my site and all my sewing. Everytime I finished something I had to show her. She also helped me alot and gave me many ideas. She was the one who named my Snappy Straps over 3 years ago. I miss her so much and if she knew how far I have come in this short time I am sure she would be proud of me.


I can't wait to see what 2011 brings and I have lots of new items I hopefully will be stocking next year. Its very exciting for me thinking about it all and I can't wait to announce all the new things as they come. I'm also excited to have some help next year with my sewing and cutting, it will help me very much to keep up with everyones demands :)



Well I wish you all the very best for 2011 and hope its a great year for you all.

Happy New Year Everyone!
