Well… I went to a MiB meeting and came home with one less tote bag to sell! 🤭👜🌹
What a brilliant evening.
We talked, laughed, learnt more about each other’s businesses and even had a mini session with V showing us some of her Strike Back defence techniques. 💪🏽
And then it was my turn to talk about what I do.
I shared a little about Rosa Lea, Canal Art and my current Hopefull Handbags project.
For this fundraiser I’ve collaborated with Everything Personalised 4 U, who are helping bring my original Canal Art inspired design to life on a limited run of printed tote bags. 👜🌹
The bags are being sold to raise money for Hopefull Handbags, who support women and children affected by domestic abuse by providing practical items, comfort and support at a time when it can be desperately needed. 💗
Somewhere between the talking, laughing and networking…
I made another sale! 🥰
Which means we are now down to:
🌹 18 bags left 🌹
This is exactly why I love getting out and actually talking to people about what I’m creating. You never quite know where one conversation might lead.
And judging by these photos… I think it’s fair to say we had a rather good time too. 😂💃🏽🥰
