We have arrived, after oh! all of about three weeks of hard graft, I have taken the ridiculous step of going live with my little business, the blog; the website; the etsy site and I have only just started making things!
I am a 'handmade in ireland' business producing a range of homeware and gifts incorporating the irish language.
Travelling around my country I find it shocking that there are so few nice things to buy that aren't green and acrylic, to take home as a little keepsake...what happened to the toil of men and women before us spinning, milling and weaving, for tourists to go home with plastic bags bursting with neon dyed leprauchauns and shamrock emblazoned 'made in china' mugs???
A change is a comin!! Linen, tweed, cotton, simple, clean and fresh, it's here, it's fabulous and well and truly Irish.
Failté, welcome home.....
