I have been a Madeit seller since 2011. I love Madeit.

Lovers of amazing handmade and independently created products can purchase items on madeit direct from the sellers with products ranging from fashion, art, homewares, accessories, stationery, toys, children and babies clothing and much much more".

Merry-Go-Round handmade Bunting in MadeIt '90 days 'till Christmas' Newsletter

Yesterday we were lucky enough to have our
Christmas Retro Red / Green Flag Bunting
featured in in the madeit.com.au '90 days till Christmas!' newsletter!


I think it's never too early to shop for Christmas gifts & decorations. I'd rather buy something that is appropriate & thoughtful early in the year rather than something that is 'rushed' and a 'last minute decision'. 

Many sellers are now starting to list their Christmas items online, including myself!
I'll have some Xmas Bunting - New styles, very soon.

I love to upcycle and give a new life to something that had an intended previous use.
Some of my  tea towels are brand new but many are retro vintage - that is 20-40 years old! They are in excellent condition as they have never been used for their original purpose.
I try to source my tea towels from all around the world, Australia, United Kingdom & the USA, to just name a few.
