mimmis in the spotlight
Just wanted to pop by and show you all who dont live in South East Queensland or who aren't on Facebook my little brush with fame ( about a minute ! )
Its on my facebook page and it wont copy to my blog.
If you go to www.facebook.com/mimmisonline and scroll down to the 16th June you'll be able to view the 3 minute interview that aired on the box.
My little brush with fame has led to a much greater awareness and has been so wonderful for mimmis. I have met an amazing array of new friends who have travelled from far and wide to check out my shop and wonder at all the clever people who entrust me to help sell their handmade wares too.
My website has been great for mimmis too, although only new and a bit on the slow side, I felt I had to jump on board the ecommerce side of things so I am ready for when there aren't shops anymore ??? Thats what I feel like its getting to sometimes, with everyone purchasing on line these days !
Do you shop on line?
How are you all ? Its been ages hasn't it? Have a lovely day wont you :-)
Ok well off to play in mimmis now, change all the things I dreamt about last night !

I am so glad the date was on my last post...achem once again its been way too long !
Just wanted to let you know that I am still here, busy keeping mimmis looking beautiful with new giftware, furniture and handmade items.
I am still and always looking for gorgeous handmade items on commission that compliment my range.
If you have something gorgeous , please email me at mimmisforesthill@bigpond.com and we can have a look at your lovely work. If you aren't sure whether your things would be a beautiful match then I invite you to have a browse on my facebook page www.facebook.com/mimmisonline and see what you think.
I will very soon be releasing my brand new website, shop included and is being worked on by a web designer as I write this post, I cant wait to show you all.
Our markets have been going great guns, with 4 monthly venues now and at least two more coming on board this year ( that are in the final stages of planning). Kingaroy, Morayfield, Redlands and Ipswich are all going great guns and mostly averaging 80 stalls of deliciously gorgeous handmade stalls.
If you think your area needs a well run, proven handmade market and know someone who could run said market, please email the market or pass this info to someone you might think would be interested.
You can email liesa@thehandmadeexpo.com.au with your idea.
At mimmis I was lucky enough to have a visit yesterday from The Great South East, a show run on channel 7 every Sunday at 5.30. They came to do a piece on mimmis and will be aired in the next 4 weeks or so. This will be amazing for mimmis and Foresthill, in the Lockyer Valley, Qld and cant wait for big things to hopefully happen from this.
Well back to sewing some lovely vintage chenille bathmats and cushions, planning ahead for the Ipswich Show in May, where I am having a stall for the three days of the show...Big week that week !
If you'd like to keep up to date with mimmis goings on, then please come over to my facebook page and have a browse around.
Talk soon

Good Morning to a wet S.E Queensland. Looks my day off I'll be staying at home catching up on neglected chores.
Just wanted to come by and let you know about a MEGA giveaway The Handmade Expo is having. It started this morning and its on facebook.
You only need like the partipitating pages and the Mr Rafflecopter will randomly draw three winners to each win a $200 market voucher which can be used at any of our 5 venues ( 3 months expiry)
So if you think you are able to get to one of our markets in the next three months, then Its worth having a go.
Never know you might find some new pages to follow !
All contributors bar one come to our market as stallholders, so it will be nice to follow up and see their work in the flesh at a market close to you.
You can check out our dates and venues on our website too.
Cheerio !http://thehandmadeexpo.blogspot.com.au/2013/02/mega-voucher-giveaway.html

Hello, long time no see !
How are you ?
Its been so long since we spoke :-) I am going to catch up with some of you tonight and some more tomorrow night etc etc.
Amazing how many of you pass me in the corridors of facebook, we wave and say hi occaissionaly. Its nice ! I miss you though!
So I thought I'd stop by to let you know that I have cleaned up my on line shop and popped some things on sale, in line with my shop in Foresthill. A few bargains, 30 - 50% off some of the items. There are heaps more in store, I only have a small capacity on line shop at the moment.
I have embarked on presenting small mini workshop/classes in Feb and March in my shop. I have a nice big back room/class room and am offering some quickie classes, things like basic embroidery, learn to crochet, scrap booking, quilling and one of my embellishment classes. I say " my" but actually haven't done it before. How hard can it be? It only will go for an hour or hour and a half.
If you'd like to come for a visit , I have a lovely range of stock at the moment including some beautiful vintage cups and saucers and some divine trios also. I have some amazing clocks made from beautiful " Royal" plates and to die for jewellery made from sterling silver and broken china. Of course I had to have a pair of earings, couldn't resist !
Here's my shop address www.mimmis.com.au , you can find me always on facebook at www.facebook.com/mimmisonline and my live shop address is Victoria Street, Foresthill, Qld 4342.
There's a google map around somewhere ! Perhaps on my website ! If not just google " mimmis" or pop it in your Navman !
