Fabricate Friday – Customer Appreciation Gifts

Happy Friday everyone.

Today I’m sharing the latest customer gifts that I am giving to each and every one of my customers who shop with me during the month of July.  I do not usually share what I give to my customers as I like to surprise them and sometimes I just forget to video it.  However, today I did because it is close to the end of the month and next month will be different.   I am very appreciative of their business and wanted to show that.  Just to be clear, if you shop with me online or at a workshop you will receive a little something from me, as long as I have an address to drop it off or mail to.  Thanks in advance for your patronage.

Fabricate Friday – Sweet Treat Lidded Box

Hello and welcome.  Thanks for spending some time with me today.  I hope you are off to a great weekend.  I am heading on a road trip (in my new car) with my best freind for a lovely road trip to Vancouver Island for some whale watching and high tea drinking at a famous hotel called the Empress.  I’ve included links here so you can live vicariously through me.  Tonight I will dine in a fancy restaurant in Vancouver called Hawksworth Restaurant too, I’m pretty excited and I still have the morning to work at the salon before I take off  (a wedding party, so I can’t leave early).   I will most likely post pictures via Instagram (search Susanne_Netz)  and Facebook (there’s a link on the right hand side of this blog) so you can follow along if you would like. I won’t gloat too much but rather wish that you too have some holiday time this summer or at least take the time to get out of the craft room and enjoy the sunshine.

Today’s project is a simple one, but none the less cute.  Check it out.
