World wide shipping, GIVEAWAY,

Hello everyone and welcome to...

What a week it has been. I've made a custom headband for a customer and am posting it out to her tomorrow. I do hope the intended recipient likes it.

Only four more big sleeps until Made With Love By Penny begins shipping internationally. I am so looking forward to meeting new customers.

So anyway, the organization thing has fallen down by the wayside again. I still have heaps to do before I will be ready and if the weather would be so kind as to stop being dreary and dismal so as I could get some form of sunshine through the windows to take photo's of everything that is already available for sale as well as some new listings.

I have to admit there are times when I feel there is just not enough hours in the day to do what I want but then I read this article on The Joy At Home about Mom Entreprenurs. It was quite a revealing interview with two mothers who not only work but also have their own businesses and are raising a family.

The questions they answered really made me put my life into perspective as far as not thinking I could be organized. I don't have the excuse of having children at home that require my undivided attention, unless of course you count my three fur-babies, one of whom will demand his grooming be done. lol

Seriously though go check out The Joy At Home. Joy designs home interior goods and is a graphic artist. So if you are looking for something special, go visit her website.

Happy Mother's Day

Hello everyone,

Just a short post today. I know it can happen at times.

I would just like to wish all the mums, step-mum's, grandmother's, mother's of fur-babies, father's who are both mum's and dad's, foster mum's and any other form of mother I have missed, a truly wonderful and loving Mother's Day.

For me, being a mum of 2 amazing son's, 2 gorgeous grandsons and one beautiful step-granddaughter, means that it is Mother's Day everyday.
The pride and love whenever I think of them fills my heart to bursting point.
Add to that mix, the fact that both my sons have found loving, thoughtful partner's whom they wish to share their lives with, makes me smile with joy and a deep love for both of these gorgeous women because they love my son's as I, their mum, feel they should be loved.

To both my mum and mother in-law, thank you for always being there for us. You are both spectacular ladies who have taught us all what it means to love unconditionally.

So on that note, I will leave you all to enjoy the remainder of your day.

PS My mother in-law loved her wrap.
