Mabooshka’s Learn & Craft Box

I've been super super busy, I really need to buy a planner and order my days and tasks. Raising two children and launching a business is incredibly difficult but I'm a woman that enjoys a challenge, so bring it on. I've finally gotten my plan into action, a Learn & Craft Box designed for 3-5 …

Bunnies, Bunnies Bunnies!

As Easter approaches I can't stop crocheting these cute little bunnies. {I designed the pattern and clothing patterns myself} I hope to get these listed asap! I have crocheted so many that my partner is worried that they'll take over our home. I certainly wouldn't complain if they did! My daughter has taken a shine …

A Crazy December..

A crazy December indeed! We are only on the 14th December and I am already drowning in things I need to do. (It doesn't help that my daughter's birthday is this month...) I've had to plan a party, organise gifts & food.. (times this by two, I am hosting a christmas dinner after all.) Then we all …

It’s Official!

That's right, after all my hard work Mabooshka is finally online! If you have a spare second or two do check it out 🙂 I have an offer on my hand knitted & crocheted scarves... It's not perfect but it's something! Here's to a new chapter, I hope it's going to be a long, exciting …

Too Busy to Breathe

Well, the title pretty much sums up the past few months. I've been making progressive steps with my business, by getting a custom order for a crocheted sunburst double blanket:     Furthermore, over the past week and during this week I'm making further progress with my own website. Very exciting! I am self employed ^_^ …

“Let’s Build an Empire”

(A follow up from my previous post) My Mother in Law has had her eyes on a shop, that may sell my knitted and crocheted bits. After bank holiday Monday, I went in for a meeting with the owner. An hour later we had an agreement. That's right she bought everything I went in with, …

Onwards and Upwards

My lovely Mother in law has been keeping her eye out for a shop for me to sell my knitted goods onto, and she has found me a little outlet. Grateful isn't the word! Ahh we are moving onwards and upwards. Mabooshka is finally getting off the ground, now to keep it a float is …

We Are Online

So I am unable to currently buy my own server and host. But, using Etsy to fund it isn't a bad idea. After several precious hours of photographing, editing and adding product descriptions, some of my products are available to buy through my Etsy store. Hopefully if I manage to sell these and make a …

Mini Stalls

I've been thinking about hiring a hall and having loads of little stalls; cupcakes, cookies, jewellery, knitted and crochet goods.... The thing is my friends don't really create things. They prefer to buy them. I on the otherhand try to make everything I can before buying it, be it a pillowcase or a piece of …

A Little Dress

I'm making my friend's daughter a really sweet hand knitted dress. I've decided to use khaki green. Also it is my own design. (The sts are not but combining them together was my own choosing.) She will be 1 in August and I've almost finished it.    I am quite proud that I'm knitting things …
