Busy Owls

I have discovered a sure fire way of selling my clocks. Visit the shop with the clock in store and decide to either swap it or remove it for a refresh. Then wait.
In no time at all a customer will arrive and ask to buy the clock that is no longer there. It has happened too many times to be a coincidence.

Yesterday at Craft Victoria I had taken an Owl clock to the car and swapped it with another when sure enough , a lovely girl appeared and asked to buy it. I had to do a quick sprint to the car to catch Mr.BJ before he drove off with it!
I don't care how they happen, or how fast I have to run, it's just nice to have a sale!

And in other news, my kitchen was deemed "too busy" to appear in the pages of a certain newspaper. Sorry, even if I tried I just can't do minimalist!

    How odd - I have one of those photos of your kitchen 'pinned' on Pinterest! Maybe I found it on your own pinboards.

    That's cool Jennie, I haven't been pinteresting for a long time.In fact there is a funny glitch and it won't let me sign in. Probably a good thing for less time wasting.

    Now that's a marketing strategy I haven't heard of!

    I love the look of your kitchen. It looks like a gorgeous place to hang out. I'm so not into minimalism.
