My adventures in the new office begin!

Pin It

I've finally moved in to the new office and have christened it already by eating far too many mini chocolate chip muffins and saying 'cheers' with a can of coca-cola!
The weather has been awful for the last few days and we didn't think it was a good idea to move electrical and paper equipment during all the wind and rain, the sky was blue this morning so we made today the day!

My graphics company Pix and Mix is now part of a group of company's called Gareth Holsgrove Associates Ltd, this will give us all the resources to offer an even better service.
We will be introducing lots of new and exciting things over the next few months so I can't wait to finalise the details and offer them to the world.

Another partner of our company is Spectrum Lifestyle that sells DVD's and online books.
Spectrum Lifestyle is run by 3 very talented and creative young adults, they also moved in to the office today and seemed far more organised than me.  All of their DVD's have been put on the shelves in alphabetical order, it seems they are suffering from a severe case of office OCD, I do hope it's not infectious!

My wonderful hubby also came along and helped us to move then spent a few hours putting my new desk together, he feels like he's been on The Krypton Factor now, I've never seen so many different shaped and sized screws in my life, I'm sure he'll be dreaming about them tonight!

Just as i am finishing this blog and looking forward to a nice dinner and chilled evening in front of the tv our Carbon Monoxide alarm goes off, my hubby has just phoned the gas company up and they've told us to turn the oven and heating off and not to turn anything electrical on or off untill they arrive in 2 hours, i'm so glad my laptop and tv are already on although i do have to keep the windows and doors open and freeze my feet off untill they arrive!!

Anyway I'm going to be updating Pix and Mix's website over the next few weeks and adding the new services.
You can still contact us via the website www.pixandmix.org.uk if you wish to talk about work.

As for my online gift shops I've added even more gifts to both so pop in and check them out here

Sushi and Snoring

Pin It

Yay my husband came home last night, he works away for a couple of weeks at a time in the middle of the north sea.
It's good to have him back, but just wish he didn't snore and keep me awake for most of the night!
I get quite used to sleeping by myself then he comes back and turns my peaceful haven in to a hazardous area! ... It's not too bad though as i've had the day off work and might treat myself to an evening off too (thats the problem with being a freelance designer and photographer, the working day never ends!)
We have sushi and soya beans for tea followed by trifle then maybe a film and an early night .... what a great day :o)

What NO Apocalypse?

Pin It

Well i've woken up this morning and it seems like they misjudged the promised Apocalypse and the world is still here!

or could it be that me and my cat are the only ones left ....... or has everyone turned in to zombies?? (it kinda reminds me of the film 'I am Legend' with Will Smith and his dog!)

I'm venturing outside in a little while, it's too nice and sunny here to stay in and i have a dinner date set with my parents a bit later so it seems i have a good day planned.

I'm sure i'll be woking on my shop when i get back later as I haven't had a chance for the last few weeks and i have lots more photos and designs to add.

As busy as a bee

Pin It wow what a busy few weeks it's been!
We got back from Cornwall then went to London & Manchester last week.
We were filming in the day and photographing at night, I can’t say too much about the job as it’s confidential, but it was great fun and lots of hard work!

We traveled back last Friday night while watching a beautiful sunset out of the train window, only to see a beautiful sunrise the next morning as I’d been catching up with emails and other work all night! Time flies!

I’ve been working on a couple of websites, getting some designs ready for print and adding new products to my shop for the rest of the week and finally feel I’ve caught up .. Now it’s time to sort out all the photos from Cornwall and get them online before my computers harddrive is completely full!
