It was five weeks of very hard work, long hours, stressful moments but also lots of laughs, great friends helping out and excitement sice we took over the lease. The shop has been the culmination of lots of planning and dreaming and Ruth and I are ecstatic we have finally made it to the point where we are open for business!!!



Here's a few photos of the shop but check out the shop website for more.

Our canvas we asked everyone to sign with as much Flourish as possible.

Our front entrance area, filled with lots of lovely things.

The wall of colour, it looks so beautiful, we had lots of wonderful help from Deb from Down Under Direct to get it looking this good.

We have some lovely things to display our goodies in.

Our front counter with the gorgeous Lorna and Briohny behind serving, they are our extremely talented ladies who will be taking classes for us.

So that's what the sneak peeks have been about, I'm sure you probably guessed though, lol.

Please come and have a look around our store and introduce yourselves to us, we 'd love to meet you all.

Eeeeeekkk!!!!

Only two more days to go!!!

Better late than ever.....

At the beginning of December we had photos again with the very talented Rachel Richter and I meant to put up some of the gorgeous photos she took but with Christmas and everything else that is happening here it just didn't happen. So here I am sharing just a few of my favourites because I seriously LOVED them all!!! Rachel is so lovely with the kids and manages to somehow get the best out of them, if you are up in Brisbane at all I highly recommend you getting her to take some photos for you, you won't regret it!!!

LOVE THIS ONE!!!!!

So cute.

Awwwww

I've been very slack where the blog is concerned, there just hasn't been enough hours in the day to get to it unfortunately. We have been insanely busy and are all feeling completely worn out but unbelievably excited abut Christmas.

There's a lot happening in the Fletcher household at the minute, some very exciting things coming up as well as a lot of work that needs to be done. Stay tuned for more news of this :)
I thought I was very organised having done most of my Christmas shopping for family in Victoria when I was there in October but fell in a huge heap when I got back - constant sickness will do that! Anyway we are now all organised, the presents are wrapped, the chocolate pav is in the oven, the prawns are peeled and ready to be devoured and the kids are sooooo very excited about the big fat man in red coming tonight!!!!

We would like to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and hope that tomorrow is filled with laughter and joy and that your New Year is full of wonderful and exciting adventures!!

Merry Christmas!!!

123 Challenge December is......

1. A Christmas tree somewhere on the page
2. A big splash of paint.
3. Lots of bling......pearls, rhinestones, glitter, anything sparkly.

Now there is NO WAY you CAN'T ALL do this one!!! Come along and join in!

How cute is this....
