Hey! I’m here. I can’t believe my last post was back at the end of January! 5 months ago. Where have those months gone? Sorry if you feel as though I abandoned you!

So much has happened since then. 28 Days 28 Designs in February went down an absolute storm and I loved every minute. I’m planning something similar to do later in the year as it really kicked me into a good routine of listing items on the site and doing new designs! So if you enjoyed February with me then keep your eyes peeled!

Also, since then I finally got my long awaited shoulder surgery. I’d love to say that I’m all fixed and issue free but sadly that isn’t the case. 🙁 I had a good 3 or 4 weeks of absolutely no issues and no pain but it’s been creeping back since. I’m back at Physio this week and see the specialist next week for my surgery follow up..so I shall see what they suggest next. I am super grateful that it isn’t affecting my working ability. The last thing I want is to be sat around doing nothing.

But less about me and more about the exciting upcomings for TFD. You may have spotted some tweaks and updates to the website recently. I’m learning more and more about the best ways to build my site to make it user friendly and just awesome. It’s not a quick job though so it’s being done around orders and other things. AND… We’re in July. THE best month of the year. It’s my birthday month. Which means you will see lots of awesome sauce stuff because you just can’t beat your own birthday month. Even if I did forget how old I was! Oooops!

First up – Keep an eye out for a giveaway launching soon that will be a collaboration with another small business… That’s all I’m saying on that one. Top secret. So you’ll have to check back to see what it is. I will of course let you know when it’s launched!

Secondly… Some exclusive items are being added to the website at the moment. Another small business collaboration for one of my first ever TFD customers. If you’re a fan of super awesome Scented Soy Wax Melts then you absolutely need to go and check out Little Ideas with Love on FB or their website. I have worked with Rach since TFD was launched and if you know her and her products, I mean, who doesn’t, then you’ll know what’s coming next. I print all her work wear including hoodies, fleeces, table runners, t-shirts.. and even some super cool slogan sweatshirts recently, so when she asked about some exclusive LIWL Merch for her customers to order direct how could I say no! Watch this space…

I’m typing away and realise just how much I have to tell you all and at the same time can see how much I’ve already written. I think I need to do some posts more often. So I’ll leave it there. There is SO much more I want to share but I’ll do so shortly. I don’t want you to open this and go “woah, essay much. Not reading that” do I!

For now, thank you, goodbye, keep yours eyes peeled as it definitely won’t be 5 months for the next update. Give me 5 days. Tops. I’m on this!

Stay Awesome. Charlotte – Teal Fox Designs
