ENJOY YOUR LONG WEEKEND (if you’re lucky enough to get one!)

on Monday June 8 for us NSWer’s anyway. woohoo - for information on all Public Holidays check the Australian Gov website, most helpful.

Things have been plodding along at Rainbow Designs, a fairly quiet May but nothing to get too concerned about. Just makes it extra hard when we have a super busy day, a bit out of practice!

Only one new gift has been added to our range this month, we added it just before Mother’s Day and had an order for it within an hour, excellent.

I’m a bit slow on getting the image edited, one day, like so many other things!

This weather hasn’t been helping with motivation, thankfully the wild winds and torential rains have left (for the moment at least) but the grey days do take their toll. It is amazing what a bit of sunlight can do for your mood.

The Pacific Highway just north of here has been closed for the last 4 days which slows our deliveries down a bit, thankfully things are getting back to normal now (baring any more king tides and huge rainfalls) and the trucks can now get through safely. My wish is for a bigger airport so the larger jets can land and we might actually get our freight and mail flown out instead of just relying on road freight meaning things would be delivered much faster.

These were for an Easter we did for a client which I was pretty happy with and thankfully so was the client!

We are currently in the process of doing another client order just waiting on a few things to be finalised and then we can get them on their way. They’re for staff recognition gifts which is great to see businesses, even in this tough time,  acknowledging the hardwork their staff put in, each and every day. Well done!

And to end todays post, my lunch (yum):

Daylight savings in NSW that is! So don’t forget to put your clocks back 1hr before you got to bed on Saturday. Yay, an extra hour on Sunday! What are you going to do with it? I might, work (nar), sleep in (maybe), spend it in the garden (probly not), find some markets (possibly), do nothing (likely), do everything (not likely), cook (umm, no), clean the house (heck no), laze about (alrighty then) - decision made

NSW school holidays start next Friday, I can’t wait and I can’t wait for the Easter bunny either, the kids get so excited (oh alright, I get so excited!). I think turkish delight would go a long way to making the Easter bunny even better than Santa. a. lot. of. turkish. delight.

To ensure Easter gifts are delivered before the Easter long weekend (yippee) orders need to be in by:

WA, NT - Friday 3 April

All other areas (ex Sydney) -  Monday 6 April

Sydney Metro - Wednesday 8 April (although we recommend ordering earlier)

The earlier the better, this avoids missing out and any delays with delivery thus avoiding disappointed friends and family who probably think you just didn’t bother, which is so not true! Order now = You Being Worshipped
