I just wanted to take a moment to explain a couple of things about our business.
I am a stay at home Mum and my partner works full time. I envisioned this little business earlier this year and I was so fortunate enough to make this happen with the help of my family.
We work from our garage in our home which is based on the Northern Gold Coast. We source majority of our supplies locally however there are some exceptions.
We have seen a few comments regarding Australian Made etc and whilst every one of our products is made some way or another with our own two hands, there are just some items that we cannot get supplied from Australia, yes, because it’s financially cheaper for us, which in return is also cheaper for our customers.
Let’s break it down.
I use a sewing machine which I brought from an Australian store, however the machine is made in Taiwan. The needles I use for my machine, made in Vietnam. The thread is made in Germany.
I buy fabric from an Australian store however it’s made in China.
My Paracord is sourced from a local supplier but made in the USA.
The scissors I use are made in Brazil but you guessed it, I brought them from another Aussie store.
See where I’m going with this?
A business wouldn’t be a business without the supply from other countries.
I have mentioned before that we do not drop ship, we have a couple of items sent to us from China and then we personalise them all ourselves. You will receive items from us within the week, you won’t be waiting weeks to receive it.
Unfortunately we can’t make everyone happy, we try and be fair with our pricing, a price that is fair to you and also a price that is worthy of our time as most of our items we make in bulk one pattern at a time and it often takes hours and hours of continuous work behind the scenes.
So in a nut shell, buying from a business like ours you are still supporting small Aussie businesses making dreams come true.
