Is It Just Us...

Or does listing items on Folksy make you really tired!!
We've just finished a marathon children themed listing session...phew! Now you can find a selection of seriously cute bibs....

And a creation of ours (nothing revolutionary we are sure!) called a 'dummy tamer'...it attached to your little ones dummy on one end and the other connects to your push chair/pram. We think their pretty cool anyways...

Thought we would give you a heads up, if you fancy any of these lovelies let us know that you join us on our blog and we will pop in an extra little lovely.

We also thought that you might want to know about an awesome magazine we have discovered called Cloth Magazine. You should check them out!

On that note,

good evening my dears

Dont Panic...We are Still Alive..

Hello to all our faithful followers out there. Thanks for hanging in there, sorry that there hasn't been much posting action going on around here. We are both still alive, just a bit busy tweaking the shop!! We thought it would only be fair if we showed you a little snippet of what we've been up to!!May we introduce you to Steve the cloud (on the bottom right) if you pop into the shop he will welcome you at the top of the stairs! we've also been having fun with some stencils and fabric paint with the 'Buttons are a girl's best friend' and 'eat your greens' shoppers being the outcome. The middle left picture shows some of the prints which we now sell for the very talented Alex
We think they brighten up the stairs perfectly. We've also been making some shabby chick stlye lavender hearts.
There's been a bit of re-jigging going on in the shop...nothing big just us fitting into the shop a bit better. There are now 4 sellers apart from ourselves you can find Lovely Lilly, Inkander, Diamond Lollipop and Bagladee .If there are any of you out there thinking you might like to have an outlet for the lovelies that you create then why not drop us a line and we will send you a copy of our terms and conditions? As a quick outline we take no commission what so ever instead we charge ten pound a month rent...if you don't want to carry on after a month that's no problem whats so ever.
Anyways...shop duties call. Have a lovely Saturday evening in the sun!

Drum Roll Please.....

We drew the giveaway today. However due to Bex's camera being broken and having to do the draw at work, we couldn't take any pictures! We decided to do two draws...one for people who had put their name down on the list at the shop and another for people who started to follow the blog.
So at around 2.45pm in deepest darkest Cineworld the first name to be pulled out of the Thumbelina lunch box was.....
Maria Dent from Creative Bumblebee
The second name out of the lunch box (and a name off of the list in the shop) was...
Chloe Peel.
Congratulations to you lucky winners! if you could please get in touch (through comments or email ...stuffednonsense@hotmail.co.uk) with your addresses and we will entrust a load of stuffednonsense lovelies to the post man!
Well Done!!

An Award and Some New Lovelies For Sale

Afternoon dear followers.
How are you all today? Succeeding at dodging the rain drops we hope?
Just thought we would pop in to let you know that there are some brand new lovelies up for sale on folksy. Yep, Bex may have given herself square eyes from sitting at the laptop for too long but 'by golly' (in a toff English voice) 'she did it!' We thought it would nice if we gave our followers a little pay back for reading our ramblings so if your tempted enough to purchase any of our beautiful things leave us a message on your order and we will pop a little something extra in...how does that sound?
We also received our first award, how exciting,Thank you very much Lucy .
O.K. so we have to list 5 current obsessions..
1. Coming up with the perfect wallet pattern: (Bex has been at this for a while...one day she will succeed!)
2. Buttons
3. Trying to recycle as much fabric as we can. We use a lot of old clothes when we make our monsters, however there are a few designs which are hard to do with out new patterned fabric as they just don't look right... the dust bunnies for example.
4. Our secret project...fingers crossed we can tell you soon
5. Our shop...its soo important to us; and when you think we have only been working together for about 7 months it makes it seem even more crazy!
We also have to give the award to 5 other people and their blogs, ones we enjoy reading...

We'd also like to give the award to some over sea blogs, we pretty sure that the ladies who write the blogs are crazy busy most of the time, but it will give y'all out there a heads up about them, and then you can enjoy the fabtastic stuff they do!
Jenny at Sew Darn Cute
And last but by no means least Heidi at My Paper Crane

Right, thought we would finish up with a picture of our plushies in the WINDOW (that's right the window, not out back or tucked away in a corner, but in the window!) of MADE, the shop in Cirencester which sells our lovelies.

TaTaaaa!!!

As some of you may know, there is a shop in Cirencester which sells some of StuffedNonsense's stuff; well they recently got in touch asking for more because they had hardly any left!!! (what great news?!) Sooo we've spent all of the past two days fixing up stuff like this...Sewing up a load of dust bunnies...Packaging up a load of button jewellery...And saying Good Bye to some Bob's.
Righto...my eyes need a rest after all that hard work they've done today! Have a Great Saturday!!xx
P.S. Whoops, nearly forgot...Vicky's Ninjas are in the shop safe and sound, they are very very cute!!Look...
