Reusable Storage Bags

Posted by beautifulflowerstar at 7:29 PM 3 comments
If you're like me you have things.....everywhere....and the thought of little plastic bags to store it all in well that just doesn't sit well with me.

Introducing the latest in our reduce, reuse, recycle campaign - Cotton Storage Bags.

In various sizes these bags are made from Cotton inside and out with a Velcro closure to ensure even the smallest of hands can use them. This ensures also that no crumbs can get trapped in seams - as PUL has not been food tested completely to my satisfaction as yet you will need to exercise caution when using as a sandwich bag what type of sandwich you pack.

Completely machine washable and if you wish you can even iron them :)

Pricing will be 1 for $5 or 3 for $10 - stock levels and colours will be confirmed after my markets this weekend.

Uses include but not limited to....

  • Snack / Sandwich bags for school lunch boxes
  • Picnics
  • Storage in handbags
  • Make-Up
  • Buttons/Ribbons/Spools of thread
  • Baby food when travelling
  • Pencils/Crayons
  • Mini heat/cold packs (fill a ziploc bag with rice, and either heat safely in your microwave or place in your freezer then place ziploc bag inside the cotton cover - Be Careful when heating not to overheat)
The uses are limited only by your imagination :)

Market Day

Posted by beautifulflowerstar at 12:49 AM 0 comments




I love doing markets - I love talking to people face to face, I love being able to show people what I make so they can feel and touch before they buy, I love the anticipation of not knowing who I will meet that day :)

For me - markets are all about interacting with you - my customers - on a more hands on way - there's a lot of you that don't know what I look like or who I am - and markets are the perfect setting for meeting your local crafters.

I'm a people person, chances are given a shot I could sell snow to an eskimo - it's just the way I am :) I love being around people, I love seeing the children you are buying for so I can get more of a 'feel' for their personality rather than just the words you use to describe them - and the greater majority of the handcrafters I know feel exactly the same way.

The only thing I don't like about Market Days - making sure the housework is all done the night before - but hey who likes housework at the best of times ;)

So don't be shy - go to your local craft markets - google is an amazing source of information on markets in your area, you never know what treasures you will uncover :)
