New Shop!

so, this is what has happened...
after much deliberation, I have decided to be a brave teddy, and open a Big Cartel shop
Etsy has never really worked for me, I think that the stuff that I sell gets lost among its huge expanse of shelves, shelves that reach all around the world, lets be honest
I am going to keep a few things in my Etsy shop but I really feel the need to move along a little

I have just struggled, for approximately and hour to add my domain name to the Big Cartel shop, I will only know for sure that this has worked in 24-48 hours (or so the big gigs at 123-reg tell me)
maybe tomorrow I will be able to type in www.ooohbetty.co.uk and I will be magically transported to my brand new shop
please pray for this to happen, I need all the help I can get!!

not too sure how it will all work out?
will the 'cushion needing public' find my new shop?

lets not worry hey

here are the new cushions I have made and these are the pics I have used on Big Cartel
 your feedback would be muchly helpful







obvs, I will be adding my badger cushions and fox cushions before the week is out, they are so nearly made, just the boring bit to do
I have made them using some rather nice autumnal woollen fabrics that are just perfect for cozying up ones sofa
I am also planning on creating new design critters and characters
these are still a work in progress but they will replicate the characters on all my cushions

lastly, as I do feel like I am wittering rather, I am going to be selling vintage homewares in the shop
only things that I really love and would really like to keep myself ;-)

watch this space and watch out for the new link that will hopefully (god willing), transport us magically to the new Oooh Betty premises...PLEASE WORK

thanks for reading. x
