My son-in-law prints banners and about 2 years ago he printed me two bright red 2 ft x 4 ft [approx] banners which we have put one each side our gate which has really worked for pulling in the trade.

As I live in a village in the middle of the countryside I had my doubts how much trade I would get but as my customer numbers are now well over 850 and I have customers who post to me or even fly half way round the world to get to me I can trust to be kept busy now. I'm really buzzing with it all... love it love it love it :-) Kate....happy to help/advise with a repair job any time.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12564678114875826791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-32718883559162263862009-09-05T09:21:00.801+01:002009-09-05T09:21:00.801+01:00That’s one interesting workroom there, I can almos...That’s one interesting workroom there, I can almost hear those machines whizzing away.<br />My sewing machine must have about five inches of dust on it because me……I can’t sew a straight line for toffee!<br /><br />I have to admit I’m a tiny bit Green eyed at all those lovely stamps and the storage.
