Thank you to all our customers!

Back! and its 2010!
Thank you to all our lovely customers who perused, bought, chatted about past decades and vintage loveliness, and brought us coffees as it was soooo cold! So cold, that's my excuse for the lack of photo's I honestly couldnt feel my hands! However we do have a couple of ok-ish pics so will promise to post them today, promise!

Here's some updates:

The Kiosk shop
A complete success - a sell out! We are delighted to have sold nearly all of our stock and it went to some lovely people and lovely homes! I know you'll all enjoy what you bought, as much as I enjoyed discovering them. Fur coats, 1960s dresses, 1960s naval style woollen coats, 1940s hairslides and some new design t-shirts, with big knitted bows by the talented Lisa, were just some of the goodies sold!

The online shop
We are hoping to get the online shop launched in 6 weeks! So keep looking on here for updates! We are currently visiting various cities, suppliers in London, Ireland and venturing to France to source you the best vintage we can find! Please be patient it will so be worth the wait!

Customers
Please feel free to send us any photographs you have of yourselves wearing your Tinkerbella & The Tailor finery - we would love to use you for our blog/website! Or if you would prefer for us not to use the pics no problem, but we would still love to see them! Also if you would like to join our mailing list for all future shop updates, and exclusive discounts please email us at tinkerbellaandthetailor@hotmail.co.uk.

We would love to hear from you, oh and of course please get in touch should you wish us to hunt down any particular vintage wear, vinatge houseware etc and we will do our best!

Coming soon.....
Tinkerbella & The Tailor are organising a rock n roll second hand sale and vintage sale in Nottingham, please get in touch on the email address above if you are a seller, buyer, maker, DJ, musician, artist etc who would like to get involved! xxxx

Spent the day with lovely friends, fell in love with a new band I have only just discovered - She and Him and it's Zoe Deschanel's band!

I love the clouds they have on their MySpace page! They're a really cute band! I really want to see (500) days of summer, I missed it at the cinema and it's not out for another few months! Boo!

Business cards for the shop are completed! and pictures will be up very shortly....

Not long till the Kiosk now! In case you're wondering what the kiosk looks like here is a picture! And if you are local it's 29, 30, 31st December on Pelham street, Nottingham.

All work makes me a happy girl!

Had some possibly very exciting news, hopefully we will be seeing a Tinkerbella & The Tailor vintage item being worn by a high profile fashion blogger :-) but that's all I'm saying for now!

Today has been spent in the office, not very exciting! - and then working in the bar in the evening, and then setting up and trying out my new printer/scanner at night! Tomorrow night, Im spending the evening with some great friends, we're watching the John lennon biography 'Nowhere boy' and we have VIP preview tickets! and then a friends birthday! I am also reading my new book- 'A Brave New World' highly recommend it, check it out! Thanks Tania for the present!

13 days

till our little kiosk!!! Working on branding still, and plan to post some of the ideas up here shortly! Also the matchboxes have arrived for the rings and I am making the most lovely bird brooch! Thank goodness I have free time to do more next week!

Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree!

So our mini tree is up! and it looks quite sweet, we also have the sweetest lanterns around the house too! At the moment I have a pile of vintage clothing that needs washing and pressing....and it's still sat in my room! I have another leopard print 60s hat, a 60s blue flowered pyschedelic turtle neck top, a beautiful 70s paisley dress, and a 70s cream faux fur coat.

The Big Cartel site will be set up in the next ten days. The colour scheme for the shop and the branding we have decided is going to be based on a peacocks feather colours! How lovely?! Jewell colours and muted colours. The business cards will be done by the end of this week and I am currently making rings for some friends as Christmas presents....It's getting a little tiresome now to keep saying photographs coming soon, as my camera is not working! But they will be here soon!

The Tinkerbella & The Tailor kiosk shop will be in Nottingham city centre on Tuesday 29th, Wednesday 30th and Thursday 31st! If you're local please come visit me and Lisa and see our lovely things and bring us soup as it will be chilly!

Oh I also have a new scanner and printer now, as everything was breaking on me! So I will scan some pictures and drawings soon! Im very excited! Also planning on doing some lovely hairbands!.....I love my new job.
