We have been utterly and totally overwhelmed by the support and enthusiasm our project has received over the last 11 days. The days have flown past so far and we suspect they will shoot past during the coming weeks too.
We kicked off with a fabulous online feature about Hat Stand in The Star on Friday 3rd June and this was followed up with a mention in the print copy on Monday this week. We didn't realise it had made it to print too, so we were very happily surprised when people arrived this week saying they had read about us in the paper!
We weren't the only ones to be snapped enjoying ourselves though. Thanks to the fabulous Danni of Danni Maytree Photography, we have loved seeing our guests chatting, trying on hats and enjoying their fizz. If you would like to see more, please do check out the album on our Facebook page. We have lots more to add so please do keep checking in. In addition to being photographed, our guests were also sketched by the immensely talented Samantha Galbraith. Thanks to Kriszta for capturing this for us |
We have been genuinely shocked at the rate at which pieces are flying off the shelves. We are all frantically working away behind the scenes to keep refreshing the shop and bring you new pieces as quickly as possible. So, if you see something on our social media pages which takes your fancy, please don't delay in getting in touch. We can reserve designs with a deposit and as many designs are one offs, we would hate for anyone to be disappointed that they have missed out.
Roll on the next 11 days...as after that point we will be in our final week. There are going to be some sore blocking and sewing fingers come the 29th June and our last day at The Hat Stand!
PS. If you have been to visit us and had a little play with our designs (and the photoframe!) be sure to check out our Happy Customers album on Facebook and be sure to tag yourself.
