WE MADE IT! We are open!

A selection of spoons by Treedom Woods, I love the hobbit spoon and the fairy feeder best!

Some long-leggedy friends.
Yes, it is a bit late to be posting this today, but it has been busy in the store and busy in the outside world too. Little girls and school Prom, say no more. Well it has been a very hectic, exciting and joyous few days in the Canterbury We Made It! store, we opened our doors at 10am on Tuesday morning and have been overjoyed at the public reaction. Our wonderful furniture maker, Jason Muteham, put in some extra pieces prior to opening, and sold a beautiful cabinet before lunch! Another Artisan was asked to stock a store in Alberta Canada! We have been visited by locals, tourists, business men and women, Artists and Crafter's too. People are joining the project everyday and the community is growing.
Yesterday was only day three and already we are in talks about opening a We Made It! in the Midlands too. I must get on and stream some advertising on behalf of all our Artisans, so for now I will leave you with some pictures of the past week. Enjoy the sun wherever you are x Emma
