Party Bag Fillers, Gifts and Wedding Favours

After some serious thought into what will be happening with Yummy Spirit after all the changes so far, which seem to be paying off! For which I am very happy about!, I have decided to open another page just sell our party bag fillers.
Candle Bag Lanterns
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Yummy-Spirit-Party-Bag-Gifts/218159021544092
Here you will find a fantastic range of fillers for party bags, hen nights, weddings and birthday parties of all ages.
Dress Memo Pads
The majority are in bulk to save you money and we can increase the number of all our items and decrease the numbers if necessary.
Our original Yummy Spirit fb selling page will also stay open and you may have seen already but we have added a lot of new items to the fb shop and are currently selling items off to make way for the next wave of products.

I will be adding new items to both pages very shortly so check back often to see what's new and what's on sale!

Status Sales and One off Bargains

Now that we are on the run up to Summer, it's time for a little clearance of the warehouse! Over the next couple of weeks you will see a lot of items popping up for sale on our facebook page at great prices so that I can make room for all our new summer items!
As many of you already know I have a little problem of over ordering all the pretty items and so always have more than I should so there will be a nice range of different items up for grabs.


The status sales are the ones to watch! As soon as I post the first to comment 'BUY' gets it, so be quick. What doesn't sell that day will be put on the facebook store at the price shown for a week before being taken off, if we have a lot of items that don't sell I will bulk package them up and sell them wholesale or full price with 50% going to charity!

Website, Facebook and Other Updates

This week has been very hectic here for me here at Yummy Spirit. My new business Our Local Crafts has taken off quite well and I haven't been as attentive as I should be on the shop.
It has however given me an insight to were my customers are coming from and so have come to some hard decisions.
We will be closing the website this weekend, you will still be able to buy my products only now it will be through our new facebook shop. You will receive the same service as the website and you will still be paying the same way through paypal it'll just be through a different medium :) As I am on facebook all day anyway for the our local crafts business you will be able to contact me quickly and all enquiries will be answered.
To celebrate our grand opening we are offering free postage on all items bought this month.

Yummy Spirit Raffle

I have gone and done it again!! I overspent only to find on returning home that the reason I don't buy too many items at once anymore is because I have no space!

This raffle will take place on the 30 April and is to win 10 of our beautiful scarves worth £55. The winner will receive 10 different styles and colours.

New Fairies, Cupcakes and other Cute items

We have been very busy this week, with new spring items and new business ventures to keep  us busy I almost forgot to blog and promote our new range!! 


This week saw a large delivery of new fairy collectables including the popular range fairy children, a new cute range of cupcakes and mushrooms and some gorgeous new trinket boxes. The majority have now been added to the website and only our woodland fairies have yet to be put on.
Fairy Child Trinket Box
Our monthly Friday Giveaway is on the 15th April, and we are giving away a beautiful fairy ornament. More information on this can be found here: Giveaway Friday April. Last months lucky winner won themselves a gorgeous scarf, so don't miss out, you have to be in it to win it!!
Cute Cupcake Keyrings
Our newest business venture has taken a lot of my time but is now up and running. As a small business I sometimes find it difficult to be a small fish in a big pond and it can be quite overwhelming so I have decided to make it that much easier if not for myself but for others! I have set up a website and facebook page where you can find other crafters to network with and find products to buy, we have a local business directory you can add your links to and a place where you can find information on the nearest craft fairs and markets. I will also be setting up my own craft fairs and markets around the UK beginning this summer in a bid to help small local businesses find customers and connections they may not have had before.
Our new website is Our Local Crafts and our FB page is http://www.facebook.com/OurLocalCrafts
New Woodland Fairies
This month also saw us donate to some fantastic charities such as:
and
in which we helped raise some money for hospital equipment and support. We will be donating again to Ella's Journey for their auction in June and we hope to have a charity market around that time to help raise funds.
