Day 20… CURRENT WINDOW DISPLAY #myshoplife2018 At the mo it’s a bit of a primary bright window…. with house plants, cards, and little ones accessorises. The window displays are one of my favourite things to do. When I worked for Topshop doing VM, I loved it when we had a new window scheme… picking the outfits + styling it… Big window vinyls sometimes cause me massive headaches… you needed to be like an octopus!! Lucky my window is so small I don’t have that issue!!! A new window is in the pipe line at the mo!! So keep an eye out! P.S It is super hard to take photos of the window!! Any tips on how to get a good shot? #myshoplife2018 #shopsmall #myshopstyle #lovedoingwindowdisplays #lifestyleshop #homewareshop #visualmerchandising #windowdisplay #windowdesign #shopwindow #styling #faffing
Day 19… SUPPLIERS & DESIGNERS #myshoplife2018 With over 40 designers + makers in the coach house, the shelves are full with incredibly talented people. I love the fact that I work with everyone directly, so I know the maker… the processes that is used to make + the ideas behind the products….

Day 14… SUPPORT NETWORK #myshoplife2018 Being self employed + working on your own means…. hard work, long hours, multi tasking, being tired, being so happy, being so stressed.

From friends, family, stockists, customers + other indie business owners. I am one lucky bee!! I can only tag 20 but I think there must be 100’s of you!!

Day 12… THROWBACK #myshoplife2018 #TBT to the max…. this is the coach house before I got my hands on it!!! I wasn’t brave enough to put the last 3 photos in colour or first…. As your eyes will never recover!!! But I could see pass the 80’s cave office, the million phone lines, papers all over the place + orange carpets! Time makes you forget how much has changed… I worked so hard along with @ongldesignmake. Sarah, Simon + Dan re worked all the OSB wood from the old shop to fit the coach house, they trull are the dream team!! I closed the old shop in July, hoping to re open in September but it took wayyyyy longer + I opened back up in October! HOW has 6months passed?! Oh and I haven’t done a launch/ moving/ new location party!!! Any ideas?!!! I am open Thurs- Sat 10-6 this week, so come say hi + see what the space looks like now! #myshoplife2018 #shopsmall #myshopstyle #lifestyleshop #homewareshop #lovemyshop #simplestyle #throwbackthursday #diyshop #workhard #myshopstory
Day 11… CHALKBOARD/ SIGNAGE #myshoplife2018 If you are strolling past the coach house you will see this bad boy outside!! (Unless it’s ridiculously windy!!) It will be back out tomorrow. I made this for the old shop nearly 4years ago... so could really do with a spruce up, but I like to keep everything quite minimal + let the products do the talking. My dream is to get a sticky out, light up sign... so you can find me a lot easier. But I am yet to find one that won’t bankrupt me!! PS sorry I missed 2 days... just needed a bit of time off!! #myshoplife2018 #shopsignage #shopsmall #myshopstyle #homelove #lifestyleshop #homewareshop #lovemyshop #simplestyle #osb #Aboard #diy #signagedesign #madeinuk #osblove
