Little Ollie handmade crafts

👋 C I A O F O R N O W 👋

The time has come to say goodbye to Little Ollie crafts. 👋

I will be stopping trading at the end of *March 2024.*

I have enjoyed designing and making lots of things over the years, but it is no longer something I have time for.

I started this venture when on maternity leave with Ollie, I then returned to work and managed to juggle all for a long time. However, he is now almost 5 and has a little sister, Luisa, who is almost 3. As you can imagine, family life is busy! Making time for social media, marketing, stalls, designing, ordering stock, etc, is just not there anymore.

When you pair that with machines breaking and equipment getting old and needing to be replaced, in this climate, with everything being so expensive, it's just not doable for me anymore.

Earlier this year, I closed down my website as keeping that up to date was also time-consuming and not cost-effective. But now, with a heavy heart, I've decided it is time to stop trading altogether. So as we approach the new financial year, I am giving everyone 1 month of orders before I close my order book for good on 31st March 2024.

So if you have anything you have been meaning to ask me to do or want to get some gifts done now, let me know, and I will see if I can squeeze you in. 😉

Please do remember that orders are only confirmed after full payment is received.

Thank you to everyone who has ever liked, shared, or mentioned me to someone and helped get my small business going. All my lovely customers (and other small businesses I've had the pleasure of working with) who have ordered from me, a massive thank you!! 😊 I have been so lucky to be involved in baby showers, birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, children's gifts, valentines gifts... the list is endless, and I am grateful for each and every order. It is true what they say, we really do a happy dance when we get an order!!! 💃

Now it's time to concentrate on my little family, some me time, a clear head and actually have chilled evenings?! 👌

A fake page had been set up to try and target small businesses. I assume they want people to click the link. I have obviously blocked this account, but just to warn others

I have a number of these in stock, selling at a reduced rate of £2.00 until stocks last. Lovely addition to the Xmas eve boxes, or have your cheeky elf to present them to your little ones.

They come with a white ribbon to go round your children's neck.

DM to order, collection from Reddish or I can post at additional charge.
