Hi all - we've had a very busy few weeks and what is quite exciting is that our Teddy Bear making Design and Makeover party has become very popular so Gemma and myself have been playing midwife to many a bear! It is kind of odd the way the bear starts off just as a furry bit of fabric and starts to develop a little personality as it is stuffed. If that sounds crazy I'm sorry but it's true and party girl Georgia's granny said so too yesterday so I'm not alone in that thought! Not only do I love the process of making the bears but I love listening to the girls as they fill out the birth certificates - I am always intrigued by how they come to choose the name of their little new friend. I also love to see the bears waiting together to be taken home to a new family and I always have a quick word with the bears before I leave and tell them that they have to take care of their new owner. Yes, I have gone loopy - well, maybe not, I've always been like this!
Monday night means only one thing in our family at the moment and that is waiting for Polly on Dragon's Den. We've already had the "She's definately on tonight" phone call so we'll see ........ love Dawn xx
Update - well, I usually go to my YOGA session on a Monday afternoon but rearranged it today due to half term Makeover Mates parties so went this evening instead - guess what?? ........ I missed Polly on Dragon's Den, that means everyone else saw it but me! Never mind - she turned down the Dragon's offer of investment and has since managed to secure loads of contracts for her products and is doing v.well thank you! GO POLLY!!
