We really are rather bad at keeping our regular blog posts updated - I guess that's the downside of being very busy. However, its a new year and our resolution is to be more disciplined with our blog. So....a quick update...Christmas was very busy, we have sold lots of blacksmithing course vouchers and are looking forward to seeing people when they book on later in the year. Our online sales are on the up, which is good.
Thank you to all our customers and supporters - both those we see in the shop and online. We couldn't do this with out you. Thank you for shopping independent. You are making a difference.
Pearl has been doing some work experience in a different setting to the shop. Shes been working for Carmarthenshire Peoples First (http://www.carmarthenshirepeoplefirst.co.uk) A brilliant organisation that supports people with learning disabilities. This does mean she is in the shop a bit less and we miss her (as she is the most organised person and the only one who tidies up behind the counter!).
We are pleased that we have a new artist in the shop. William Reimnitz is a skilled landscape artist https://www.facebook.com/pages/category/Artist/William-Reimnitz-Artist-515120285299370/ He is also a keen walker - you can feel his affinity with nature when you look at the pictures. The detail is so well observed. We love his big skies. Much of his work centers on the landscapes around Swansea. He also has some great North Wales images.
We are looking forward to a fabulous 2019. It will be our third year in our little shop - its gone so quickly. Don't forget to come and visit us if you are in Carmarthen town and tell everyone about us. and dont forget we are on instagram, facebook, twitter and online.
Diolch and catch up soon.
Trudi
