Well, in just over a week we will be at Redworth Hall Hotel for Luxury Christmas Fayre’s first event in a couple of years. Am I ready? Well, no, not really.
The problem is that running a business from home, especially when you’ve just had a large stock delivery, means that everywhere you turn there are boxes or display things or paper bags. Our house isn’t even that big, so we are officially bursting at the seams.
This also makes loading up for events tricky, as the chances of forgetting something are high. Add to that the fact most of the bags and boxes haven’t been touched for at least 12 months and, well, you see my point.
Having said all that, I’m bristling with excitement to get back to face to face retailing. I love our website, but there’s nothing quite like seeing children’s faces light up (both big and small) when they see our stall. I also can’t wait to see Redworth Hall Hotel all decorated for Christmas – it really gives you that magical warm glowy feeling that this time of year encapsulates.
So, although I’m sitting here trying to plan how to pack everything ready for transporting to Redworth Hall, making sure nothing gets left behind, I’m also trying to keep a lid on my excitement levels too. It’s going to be a busy run up to Christmas!
Hope to see you there!
