Maisie-Moo Returns

Hello all, gosh it will have been almost three months since my last blog post. During this time I completed all my back orders (yay) and have had a wonderful holiday.

Maisie-Moo will be officially back from at the beginning of September. However I have started taking advance custom orders through my Etsy shop. If you were wanting to order a MM Creation and it is not listed, please do not hesitate to contact me via Etsy or Facebook and I can arrange.

Thank you all for being so patient and I am looking forward to getting Maisie-Moo up and running again for Spring.

Closed up shop...

What a difficult thing to do! Today I had to 'deactivate' all my listings in my Felt and Etsy shops as I have just too many orders to deal with..... ordinarily this would not be a problem as I would just extend my completion times. But with our holiday to Scotland and Thailand looming I felt the best thing for my customers and myself was to 'shut up shop' and make sure the orders I have are completed before we go.

Sorry in advance to anyone who was was wanting to order a Maisie-Moo Felt Creation.... I will be up and running in a couple of months and in the mean time hope to list some of my popular creations for instant purchase...time permitting that is.

Thank you all again for your support and I will keep you updated on my status.

So Manic!!

I can't believe it has been a month since my last post!! This is due to being so crazy busy I have just not had the time to even think. Not only is Maisie-Moo now running to a 6 week completion for my existing creations, I am having to turn down work for individually made custom creations.. Sorry! I am getting a new/second hand kitchen fitted (by my lovely Dad) which is so exciting, who knew picking taps, tiles and the all important bench could take so much time.

Here are a couple of pics of today's (and recent) mail... I had a very quick photo session...

All heading off to the USA.

Really pleased with the look of this name banner... makes me want to eat boiled sweets.

Another cheeky monkey for another cheeky monkey!!

New hanger for the Rainbow Elephants... with a music button playing "Twinkle Twinkle".

So enjoyed making these Rainbow Cottages for my girlfriend Jenny who is expecting soon.

Bums!!

If your creation is not here, please do not worry, I only photograph a few of what I complete.

I hope this reached you happy and well.

Loving being a mum...

It has been a busy couple of weeks, Maisie is becoming more of a delight (if at all possible).. she is starting to say so many words and understands so much more. She is 16 months now, such a wonderful age!

I have been busy with my creations too and here are some that have been sent out today... not all are shown as taking photos takes so much precious sewing time.

This was made to match a customers nursery decor, they had dark furniture so I painted my normally whitewashed wood a rich dark brown.

This is heading off to Australia along with a Gertie Giraffe too.

This name banner will be adorning a nursery door in Norfolk..

I so enjoyed making these pink owls and these will be hanging above a soon to born baby in New York.

Hope you all have a lovely Easter break xxx Ria

This weeks mail..

Just a wee showcase of some of the orders that I have sent off this week. My 'Owl and wee Critter' Mobile has proved popular and I have made three this week along with the following orders out in the post this week,

What a week!

Well I survived three pin pricked fingers, my parents being away and being run into by a very large truck. To elaborate... I have some new needles and am still getting used to them, hence the finger injuries..... I never realised what a help my Mum and Dad were till they decided to take a holiday, all the more appreciated!. And yesterday, dropping hubby off to work, we were rammed by a very large truck and trailer who 'did not see us'... it left us a little shook up and thankful for full cover insurance.

Quite a few orders made it out though, one to the UK for Daniel, he had a Blinky made for his new bedroom door. Grace, also in the UK has a an Owl Family to look over her and Kathryn from Texas will be receiving her Owl and wee critter baby mobile soon too.

First Flight Baby Bird Mobile ....

is flying off to the US tomorrow... I had forgotten how much work goes into this particular mobile so it has take me a few days to complete. It looks like it will not be slowing down anytime soon either as 4 of my new Owl Mobiles have sold in the last 2 days. Yay! I am glad you like the design.

Who says Monkeys should only be blue!

Another busy one this week.

I have just completed this cute wee red cheeky monkey for Quin who was only born last week and I will be posting off two Owl Familys today, one for Maeve and one for Luke.

Off now to explore the local toy library then spend the day with Maisie's Poppy.

Have a great weekend!
