THE LATEST

First things first, BIG THANKS for all your support, it has been really important to me and to Koalita. Thank you so much!

Now, the latest: Koalita Craft and Koalita Party are under restructuring. Today I have good news and bad news. The bad news, or less good, is that I'm not blogging anymore, at least here, for now and with this format. But Koalita Party Etsy shop as well as the facebook page will receive extra attention.

A newsletter is being created. Probably many of you have already received a copy which resulted as a test that needed some refining. This newsletter will be released monthly via email and promoted also on facebook and twitter. Material to be included: news about new products, discounts, sales, the latest about events organization (hints and tips ) and lots of inspiration. The first publication will come out in late May .

I'm working on many more updates on Koalita's world. I will disclose on Koalita facebook page , twitter and of course on the new newsletter out shortly.

So to keep in touch, please DO keep in touch with us we like to have you around, follow Koalita tweets , Like the facebook page and subscribe the newsletter . I'm also on Pinterest and Instagram feel free to join.

I'm going on holidays now but I will be back on track after the 6th May. Stay tunned! 

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

And the day has arrived! Koalita Party's 3rd anniversary.

In 2011 I launched the first online shop of Koalita Craft. Koalita Craft on Etsy started as a brand for children.  At the beginning of 2013 Koalita Craft became  Koalita Party that is now more than a brand for children. It's a business without age range. New brand, new design, new goals but the same genuine mission: Making life more colourful and happier people.

These last 3 years were full of joy with the birth of my two daughters. Laura in October 2011 and Clara in October 2013. There wasn't much time for business but always replied in the best way possible to custom orders, holiday seasons and reasonable needs.

2014 is definitely the year to start a new cycle. And Koalita Craft blog and Koalita Party shop are on the top of the list. There's a lot to celebrate for what was accomplished but there's much more ahead. New products, brand new party packs and a long way to enter the wedding and events industry for good.

Do I have fears? Doubts? Yes! But I know that I'm not alone, my family, friends, customers, YOU, support and believe in me. I believe in ME and in my DREAMS. And it feels so right when someone contacts KP sharing their dreams and hopes so I can turn them alive. It feels so right when people thanks for promoting their work and effort.

YES! Hopefully I will be here in one year time celebrating again with all of you and more...

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

Big thanks to all of you!

Note: There's an awesome anniversary giveaway running here on the blog. Please don't hesitate in entering.

Hello lovely people! I hope you had a sweet weekend...

I'm so so so excited!!! This week I will announce something awesome! I've already got tickles in my fingers!
Part of this fantastic "thing" is just next to me. It's bright, colourful, happy, fun and it is almost ready for you. Here's a sneak peak of the big rainbow surprise that I'm preparing for you. You will find out what I'm talking about soon... Stay in touch!

HAPPY WEEK dear readers!

PREPARING FOR CLARA!

Hello there! It has been very difficult to keep on working and meet all the needs that the arrival of a new baby and pregnancy require. With 37 weeks I guess it's time to slow down, don't you think?

Christmas collection is almost ready and everything will be available on the second fortnight of November. Stay tuned with our Facebook page to get all the news in first hand!

Our Etsy and Folksy shops will be closed from 7th October to the middle of November.

If you spot a piece that you would love to have on your holidays season just let me know by contacting through our Facebook page or email. I will make an extra effort to send your order immediately after the shops are opened but before any coming order due to the reopening.

However, Koalita Craft blog will just return next year. So... I'm wishing you all a spooky Halloween, a cosy Christmas and a Happy New Year! I hope I can see you here in 2014! Have yourself a lovely time! :)

WHAT ARE WE HAVING TODAY?

Today should has been a guest post day by Scott. Unfortunately Scott is not able to collaborate with KC anymore. I'm going to miss his tips about photography...

Well, if you are an photographer or a photography addict and would like to share your passion with us, an email for a collaboration with KC's blog would be much appreciated.

In the mean time I'll share with you what has been happening around here. As Laura wasn't having nursery I had to dedicate the most of my hours and energy to her and to the endless appointments I had due to the pregnancy. However, I still managed, don't really know how, to work on some products for Koalita Party and Koalita Gifts, the Christmas is almost here and the Halloween is just around the corner. So I've been spending my little time designing and making these sweeties and a few more are in the oven almost ready to come out! Hope you like it!
