Posts Tagged ‘daisy loves…’

Hello and welcome to our new blog home! When we started daisy loves… a couple of months ago we weren’t 100% sure where it was going to go but now we have been blogging for a while we can’t get enough!  So we decided to take the plunge and do it properly with our own URL and a brand new look.  Please take a look around our new home and make sure you come back on a regular basis to read about new finds, new interviews, hear what we’ve been up to and even grab yourself some freebies! 

We have put our first two items into our Etsy Shop with more on the way.  We decided to launch it a little early and kick off with the Rescue Range of bandanas – the sale of which will raise money to help GWP Rescue Inc, a charity based in Kansas that rescues German Wirehaired Pointers who have been abandoned or are no longer wanted or who have been rescued from puppy mills.  Take a look at their website to see the puppies they have just rescued in a massive raid – well over 20!

We hope you enjoy our new blog and new look and we would love to hear your comments!  If you would like us to interview you or review your product or shop then we would love to hear from you as well – just get in touch via the contact page.

We look forward to hearing from you! x

Wearing my design hat (take a look at The Scarlet Wonderland) I have just finished the poster for our local village dog show in August. It is also our first daisy loves…show so it will be a busy day!

We thought you might like to meet Daisy Boo – the inspiration behined daisy loves… Daisy Boo is a German Wirehaired Pointer who has lived with Nicola for 18 months. She arrived with her ‘husband’ (and father to her litter of 15 pups!) Mr Sonny and since then has settled into country life in our thatched cottage with miles of field of them to run in with their labrador and spaniel friends. You will see plenty of her in the future being a ‘model’ for the various daisy loves… ranges along with her chums. The photo of Daisy Boo was taken by Lesley-Anne.

It looks like summer might finally have arrived in England – and just in time for the weekend for a change! Walking the dogs does so much for inspiring creativity and even more so when the weather is so warm and there are so many beautiful things to look at. We both live in a tiny village in thatched cottages and it really is postcard pretty – just a wee village shop, a pub and a church! We are very lucky to live only a few hundred yards from each other and we spend a lot of time together mapping out the great life plan. Right not that plan is mainly dog collars, leads and treats! Nicola is also doing posters and leaflets for the upcoming dog show which will be the launch of the first daisy loves…range.

We are desperately trying to find beautiful quality fabric we love at prices we can pay for our first collection and we just can’t wait to try out the first prototypes on our furry friends! They will definitely be the talk of the village! x
