🌿 Roots & Bloom — what a day! 🌿
Well… where do I even start? 🥹❤️
Today was my first Summer Fayre with Roots & Bloom, and honestly, I am completely overwhelmed by the love and support we received.
To everyone who came along, stopped at our stall, chatted to us, bought something, asked about bespoke pieces, shared our posts, followed Roots & Bloom, recommended us or simply took the time to tell me how much you liked my work…
THANK YOU. 🥹❤️
I genuinely don't think I can put into words what it meant to hear so many lovely comments about my crazy little wire creations! 😂❤️
And then there were 3@ bespoke enquiries, people asking about future fairs, and even someone insisting I need to do the Swarkston fayres because apparently Roots & Bloom would be a massive hit! 🤣🥹
And then I came home to THIS beautiful post from Amanda…
Wow. Just wow. 🥹❤️
Amanda Dawes and Andy, thank you so much for coming along to support us and for taking the time to write such incredibly kind words. It honestly means more than you know. ❤️
Today wasn't just about sales (although £370-ish 🤯🥹) — it was about realising that people genuinely connect with the things I make.
Every piece is handmade, usually in my little Needle Shack, with a ridiculous amount of copper wire, beads, patience… and occasionally a few choice words when the wire refuses to behave! 😂
Today has given me the biggest boost and reminded me why I started Roots & Bloom in the first place.
So from the bottom of my heart…
Thank you for believing in my little creations. 🌿❤️
And to everyone who supported us today — you've helped Roots & Bloom take its very first little step. 🥹🌱
And I have to give a massive thank you to Tyler Wilson too. ❤️
She has been behind the scenes helping me with the social media, getting Roots & Bloom out there and supporting me through all the nerves, planning and chaos that comes with doing something like this for the first time! 😂
Having her there today meant so much to me. It really has felt like a little team effort, and I couldn't have asked for better support. 🥹❤️
Here's to whatever comes next… 🥂
