A Very Merry Heartfelt Christmas!

That special time of year has come around again, it has gone so quickly and to think that at the end of January we would have been open a year!!! Wowsa!

What a success! For me it has been a blast and I am so very grateful to be a part of this wonderful creation, I have learnt so much, met so many lovely people and made some fantastic friends!

I want to take this time to thank everyone who have supported us this year, we are so very grateful and appreciate every bit of generosity and friendship.

We hope that everyone has a fantabulous Christmas, over indulge! I will, and then worry about the few extra pounds later, thats what New Years resolutions are for!

Vintage Wedding Shoot

Hey guys,

Sorry its been a while, much to tell you!

Back in September, the Heartfelt team decided to do another photo shoot with the great Martin Hill! Vintage Weddings was the theme, and Mandy wanted to do a different take to what the average bride might want to look like on her special day!

I have managed to get hold of some of the shots from that day!

Similar to the shoot back in February on the trainlines at Crowcombe Heathfield, we decided to use the same models, Kate and Annabelle Hinckley and of course the amateur in the team, me. Having done this before we are always very aware of the demands and effects of volunterring ourselves to model but as usual you can always guarantee that its going to be an amazing experience and you get dolled up!

We needed the right setting and for us it was Chapel Cleeve, an old hotel, very famous in this area. It is owned by Jeannie Wilkins, such a lovely lady who made us feel very welcome. The building is outstanding and so traditional, it was amazing to see the inside and all the paintings and furniture that she had on display.

Although it was September, typically for us it was freezing, but when you have to produce shots, you have to suck it! As for me too, heels are not my forte and by the end of the morning my feet were literally killing me. As ever though Kate and Annabelle were amazing, they are always the professionals, and always make me feel confident too.

Mandy didn't want to dress us in the traditional white gowns, she wanted to do things in her own quirky way, which is always exciting! The dresses that we got to wear were from our shop and they were gorgeous, you simply cannot imitate these pieces, they are unique, and each have their own story to tell, they have stood the test of time!

With the help from our team, we were once again able to transform ourselves and look the part! Bella Hodge, the master of make up artists, created beauty. Susie Logan with her floral designs produced some beautiful bouquets for us to hold and Susan Hinckley, the ever amazing wonderwoman who always gives us her support and love.

It was a fantastic day and have a look at the shots!

Winter Warmers

With the competition and fashion show that we had organised it was undeniable that Mandy had to bring dear old Mollie over, her collection was divine and definately couldn't be shipped over by plane. The journey was certainly a long one but was sure another opportunity to bring over a selection of new clothes from ZOUM in France and some Vintage items too.



Whenever Mandy comes over its always exciting, a great chance to try on what goodies that she has brought over with her! Very tempting!!



The shop is now fully stocked again, as always though!! Full to the brim with Winter warmers.



Come over for a brew, the kettle is always on!

WWW

We've decided to go for it.



ONLINE is the way up!!



Whenever customers come in from afar, one thing they always ask us is whether we are on the internet and we say unfortunately we aren't but now we have decided to bite the bullet and go for it, so watch this space!!



With Fran, Mandys niece on board we are well on the way to establishing ourselves in the virtual world.



In the new year we should be up and running. Fingers crossed!!

20th of November!

Hi guys,

On the 20th of November I am holding an evening opening in the shop! A chance for friends to get together with a glass of bubbles and browse to your hearts content.

Sometimes our lives can become really hectic and retail therapy for me is always the best remedy.

I know its a Saturday evening and your probably usually glued to the telly with Strictly and X Factor on the go but please press record and come on down!

It will be from 6pm onwards, bring a friend too.

You can't g wrong with 15% DISCOUNT either!!!!

Muchos Love

Becky
