End of Month Review - A quick look back at August

I took some time off in August to spend with wonderful friends.  After two weeks out of the office it take a while to get back into your stride, even so... it's been a busy month, here's what we have been up to...

1// Nicola wrote 10 things you might not know about The Ruby Orchard...We do gift vouchers,  we can deliver, we are on instagram and we wholesale our rustic frames to other shops!

2// Our August facebook album of new products got everyone excited! You ain't seen nothing yet... we have some AMAZING new stock ordered, in production and on the way!

3// Sandi described her perfect day out and about in the midlands.  Sounds like my kinda day too!

4// While I was away at the coast I popped into see Terry making Foreva candles and headed for my first visit at The Litchi Orchard Market.

5// We let you in on who we love to follow and keep up to date with online.  It was so hard to choose our favorites.

6// Our team of furniture makers is growing. We have had some great new pieces refurbed and are now in store.  Preserving the past and creating beautiful pieces from other peoples rubbish is so exciting.

7// I shopped up a storm in J'burg buying new stock for the up and coming festive season.  As always we will post pics on our facebook page as soon as the stock starts arriving!

8// City Girl Searching featured me on her blog in her 'Life After the Dress' series... watch this space... Roxy and I have some pretty plans!

9//  Sandi is a Pinterest addict...Well she loves it!!  Our boards of style inspiration are being updated daily and we have some great plans for using Pinterest to show you how to use our products in your homes.

Cannot believe it is September already... I am trying so hard not to mention the 'C' word!!!
