I don’t consider myself a natural buyer. Some people have a great knack for working out themes and only buying within those themes. I, on the other hand, often buy what I like and don’t think about how it will come together in the shop.
I’m pleased to say I’ve improved this year, and looking at what I’ve bought (that was ordered back in January/February) are very happy with the themes. When you run a small business you obviously have your own strengths and weaknesses, and I guess the key to growing is recognising your weaknesses and working on improving them -and I think I have made start in this area this year.
My favourite is always the whimsical ranges and I’ve attached a few of these. I see Christmas as being about having fun, and don’t take it too seriously, hence the whimsy style. But we have managed to find some great, more traditional products as well.
Anyway, today I’ll go back to the shop and we will finish installing shop fittings and will finally see the frame and how it has come together. Then the next step is dressing the trees, and adding the “wow” factor to the shop.
Check out the Melbourne pages of the web site for a few more great shots of the new range.
