A day out in the big smoke

The week has started very well for us. On Monday I had a day trip to London, took 600 of our publicity wall art postcards and went to Kings Road and Notting Hill to post cards through letterboxes. Really sunny, really lovely day. Some gorgeous houses, love the brightly painted houses at the back of Kings Road, so interesting. Was tempted to have a drink in the sunshine at the ‘Chelsea Potter’ on Kings Road, an old haunt of mine many moons ago…in the end went for a bottle of water and sandwich at Pret a Manger, how things have changed!!

The postcards are just a tiny part of our advertising plan. Magazine wise, “Junior’ will be featuring ‘Outer Space’, I had a lovely email back from ‘Angels and Urchins’ saying how nice our work is and that they will contact us after the holidays regarding a feature. These two publications are read by the most affluent parents, so hopefully they will like our unique handmade wall art for their children !!!! Still working hard on our site to get us up on the first few pages of Google, this is very important for small businesses: to be seen by as many people as possible…

Off to Suffolk and Norfolk for 10 days, sure I will have something to report on my return…
