Newsletter No 1 – January 2022
Hello and welcome, this is a pretty exciting moment for me, and I want to include you in my first e-newsletter! It has taken me 12 years to build up the courage to send out a newsletter as there are so many other exciting things to do and I fully understand that not everyone has time for even more e-mails. To quickly address why you are receiving it: you probably asked if I had a mailing list at some point in the past or you responded to a post on Facebook, possibly we have met, maybe at a show or you have visited the forge. It may have been a while ago, so you might have to dig deep into the old memory banks. If you don’t want to receive these emails you can absolutely unsubscribe (down at the bottom)… but I hope you stay! I will not bombard you whilst hopefully offering you something of interest each monthly issue: helpful tips, inspiration, recommendations, and possibly some fun.
January Sale
This time I’m here to tell you about an open day we are having at the forge on Sunday (16th January). Elisa (of Shake Your Glass) and myself will be running a mini January sale in the forge from 11am – 4pm. We have been looking at our stocks and decided it is time to part with some old friends at bargain rates.
January Sale
Sunday 16th January, 11am – 4pm
Eastney Beam Engine House, Southsea PO4 9JF
This is your chance to pop in and say hello, possibly look around if you haven’t had a chance in the past or to come and see new toys that have appeared since your last visit.
We are currently in the middle of developing and making new designs for spring 2022 so why not come and see what is in the pipeline. We have also been super busy with commissions that are about to go to the galvanisers so you may enjoy seeing those before they go to their new homes.
You will be welcome to pop in whatever interests you, no pressure to buy anything. Hopefully you know us well enough to realise that a hot chocolate and biscuit is more our style.
All the best for 2022 and hopefully see you soon.
