Where does the time go?!

Well I seem to have completely lost May somewhere, baffled to what I have done each day but it has flown by... but somewhere along the way finally found the sun!

At the beginning of the Month I had lovely celebrations of my Parents Ruby Wedding Anniversary - and lucky them they got an original emsOriginal illustration of there lovely lives together! hehe.

I'm really looking forward to this week, there's already a great atmosphere in the air in Knutsford as we head towards the Olympic torch run through on the 31st May, and then the Diamond Jubilee weekend ahead! We have been rolling out the bunting in the Cherry Tree Shop! I did have big plans for commemorative souvenirs but this got lost somewhere in the depths of the beginning of May! But i think now I will just soak up the weekend with the BBC coverage and perhaps a cheeky glass of something bubbly!

So what have I been upto! Well i have been really developing new ideas for emsOriginal and a new area of my business "Something Borrowed..." - I have a number of items I have been collecting for years, all back from the days I had big plans to become a tv&film set designer and now I'm finally refurbishing and bringing them back to life to become props for wedding and event hire! It all began with a little vintage suitcase, and a couple of bits and bobs I hired as extra's alongside my wedding stationery, but the ideas have really evolved and now I have a vintage sweetie cart, photo booth, croquet sets, boules, books and typewriters to hire! Just slowly updating the website with all props available ready for the autumn!

I'm really looking forward to June, I have finally got sometime to really push the new areas of my business I have been really keen to get to work on! And I will be having a little stand at the Plumley Village fun day on the 30th June so a good month to really get some new ideas and get creating with a nice day with family & friends and hopefully lots of customers on the 30th!

See you soon!

April showers!

Well this week we have been definitely been having a few rain showers! But definitely summer is on the way! March was a very busy month here at emsOriginal and April seems to be running away with itself too!!

So the highlights of March...

1. I completed and on time my vintage suitcase! And it seems this little case has a few more travels in it yet and is booking up quickly for weddings this spring and summer! See below my finished article and let me know what you think!

Vintage Suitcase Available to Hire, please email weddings@emsoriginal.com for further detail!

2. Iv been busy with some other little ideas iv been having for creating bespoke weddings and will be installing a wedding window in the Cherry Tree Shop this month so will keep you updated on when it is completed and you can come down to view!

3. I did finally start making a few little pieces for the jubilee an promise to have them for sale in cherry tree by the end of the month! So watch this space!

4. I have a new stockist of my cards! A fabulous boutique clothes shop called Mandi Boo in Audlem! I have to stop myself spending too much money when I deliver stock it such a fab place!

I'm still working hard and will update my website in the next few weeks with my most recent commissions and some further samples of some of the wedding stationary I have been completing but it really is all just running perfectly!

Thanks for following! See you soon!
