Two exciting new shops!!

It's not very often that I blog about online shops, after permenantly putting my Etsy shop on hold, I haven't had the enthusiasm for Etsy that I used too. However, yesterday I got very excited about online shopping indeed as two of my lovely UK blog friends Elizabeth and Zoe opened their shops and now I am very excited to share them with you!
First up is Elizabeth's new shop Three Jelly Moulds and a Wardrobe...
 
If you follow Elizabeth's blog or Twitter then you know that she has been putting her shop together for a while hunting out the perfect pieces for it and I must say, her finds really are lovely. 
With a combination of vintage and retro pieces and categories such as Kitchen, Fashion, Photography and also a great £10 and under section, this vintage shop has a huge selection of delightful pieces at great prices.

Next is Zoe's new shop, Ladybird Likes...

You may recognise this shop from my last Christmas giveaway. I was very excited about Zoe's shop then and now that it's open, I am just as excited about it now.

Like Elizabeth's shop, Zoe's shop combines a lot of my favourite things - cameras, brooches, birds, dogs(!!) and photography. With beautiful necklaces, stationary, photos and postcards and a huge variety of brooches, Ladybird Likes is a fun little shop, perfect for gifts, either for your friends or just for yourself.

Having had a shop once myself, I completely understand the time and effort it takes to put one together and to show your work well. Both Elizabeth and Zoe's shops look wonderful, have amazing pieces and they are both a true testiment to their hard work and skills and
 both are definitely worth a look around, enjoy!

On the third week of Christmas... Closed!

2012 Calendars ...

I've been planning these for a while but I'll be honest, my blog/selling photos confidence is pretty low at the moment, I sold one calender last year, but you never know right... someone might want one again and making them has kept me busy and out of trouble which is good.

I've put together one Paris b&w diana mini calender but I'm planning other Paris options, holga favourites, diana mini favourites - in fact you could always make requests if you want - I'm happy with anything and I have lots of photos... and I'm thinking I'll make them available for PDF download and printed this year too - as I always worry the post will suck. (It took a month for my last parcel to get to the US, not cool)

I've also decided to make these by request this year as I hate listing items on Etsy and then they just sit there and expire - it wastes my money and time. So if you're interested in one then please let me know either in a comment here or my email is rhiannelouise@gmail.com and I'll let you know the options that are available.

The calenders will be 5x7 size - 12 pages available in matt or glossy prints and cost £12 (about $20) plus postage. Or the PDF option, which I can email to you, will be £9 (about $15).

I hope that at least one person is as excited about these as I am and hopefully I might even hear from someone :)
