Ring giveaway!

Over the last week or so I have been so busy with preparing the Cats & Whiskers stall in order to apply for a market that I haven't been able to update the etsy store or blog in a while.

To make it up to everyone, I will be giving away one blue flower resin ring (pictured below). To be in the draw to win this, send an email to catsandwhiskers@gmail.com with your name and postal address.

Note that this is only open to cats & Whiskers Facebook fans, so if you want to enter but aren't a fan, visit www.facebook.com/catsandwhiskers to like our page.

The competition will close on Monday 4 June and the winner notified by email.

Good luck!
Kim

Update

Today's been a record day for offline sales for Cats & Whiskers, which is amazing!

I am currently in the process of applying for our first market stall. There will more information on that over the next few weeks.

For now, you can get a mini sneak peek of how the stall will be decorated with the photos below. More coming soon.

We have a winner!

Thank you to everyone who entered our recent competition.  The winner was drawn today.

Congratulations to Kahurangi, who won the balloon necklace!

This necklace is already one of the most popular items in the Cats & Whiskers etsy store, to the point that there is only one left, and it is only available in our felt store.  More should be available in around 3 weeks, but if you want one before then you may want to get in quick.

What an awesome week so far for Cats & Whiskers!

Firstly, some good news.  It looks like the issues I was having with resin are solved, so hopefully the first resin items will be up this weekend! 

I've also been working on my stall for displaying Cats & Whiskers jewellery at markets.  I won't say much about it for now, but it is based on one of my favourite books when I was little, The Folk of the Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton.

Finally, the competition to win a balloon necklace ends tomorrow, so there is still time to enter.  Click here for more info.

Thanks to everyone for your amazing support so far.

Awesome first day!  Big thanks to everyone for visiting our store and making Cats & Whiskers' first day a success.  More items should be up by the end of the week.

I'm also currently investigating other mediums to work with, including leather.  I will post photos of my progress.

Below is a link to the shop again in case you missed it yesterday:
