I have also had a few trips away. Firstly, to Bruges for my good friend Alex's hen party/30th birthday celebrations! Alex runs <a href="http://www.by-alex.co.uk/" target="_blank">By Alex Textiles</a> and she creates beautiful homewares full of country charm! Stunning architecture, beautiful weather, boat trips plus lots of eating and drinking made for a fabulous weekend!<br />

<br />
I have also been working on some new product lines and new designs which will be launched to trade in July. My goal this year is to become more organised with designing and producing new ranges. Usually, we can be a little last minute and it can become quite stressful, so I am taking some time earlier on in the year to be creative. All I can say is we have some very exciting developments in the pipeline!<br />

I mentioned in an earlier blog that my family had booked for Kristian and I to stay at the <a href="http://www.gilpinlodge.co.uk/" target="_blank">Gilpin Lodge</a> in the Lake District for my birthday treat. One word ... BLISS! This was our room, a junior suite called 'Troutbeck' which had the most fabulous terrace with spectacular views. From the moment we arrived, we were looked after by all of the wonderful staff and enjoyed a spectacular five course meal and a superb breakfast the following morning. It was a fabulous retreat and was much needed after Spring Fair! I've come back to work this morning feeling refreshed and relaxed. </div>

Bunting is a must have for the Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics so we have created a simple yet luxury bunting in red, blue and cream to match our 'Proverbs' range. The bunting will be available on the <a href="http://www.beckybroome.com/" target="_blank">website</a> soon.<br />

My gifts included several <a href="http://www.evelom.com/" target="_blank">Eve Lom</a> products (my favourite!) and a weekend getaway for Kristian and I to stay at the <a href="http://www.gilpinlodge.co.uk/" target="_blank">Gilpin Lodge</a> - a luxury country house hotel in the Lake District! I am sure it will be much needed after Spring Fair!<br />

I'm going to have the weekend off (well most of it anyway!) and try to rest in preparation for the chaotic madness that is preparing, packing and working at Spring Fair. After Sunday, I won't have a day off for another 12 days! </div>
<br />
Hope you all have a great weekend. xAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03824761960196986169noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788468866539036458.post-31459114929646779902012-01-25T02:19:00.000-08:002012-01-25T02:19:59.315-08:00Busy Busy<br />
After a hectic run up to Christmas, Kristian and I managed to take a week off to enjoy the festivities and have a well earned rest! However, since starting back, we have been very busy bees! We finalised the designs for our new Valentine's range and got busy in the print studio. The collection includes, gift bag sets, gift tags and cupcake toppers! They are perfect for adding that finishing touch to your Valentine's Day gift!<br />
