COVID TRADING UPDATE - AUGUST

Dear everyone, we are still in business and are, so far, well
As we are based in Adelaide, where infection rates of COVID – 19 are much lower (yes, we fell very blessed!), we have been able to continue our business with some minor changes to routines such as hand sanitation, limit to people in the office/shop/ sewing studio at the one time etc. Please stay safe everyone no matter where you are.

You can always shop online or ring and come to the Studio to shop. If you have any questions regarding any of our products feel free to ring/email/facebook us as we are very happy to chat to you. In fact , since craft markets closed down in March in Adelaide, we have been starved for a bit of company. We are back again at Gilles at the Grounds and Creative Lifestyle Markets at Plant 4, Bowden as of the last 2 weeks – wohoo! Follow us on Facebook to find out where we will be or text/ring us on 0407626755. See you around soon!

Great News For Eucalyptus Fans! Also, hi to Granddad!

I love eucalyptus, always have, since I was little. My grandfather snuck away some Läkerol pastilles (a sweet throat lozenge in Sweden) when Grandma wasn’t looking, put some in my hand, told me they had magical powers and were tremendously good for the chest. I loved them and the pastilles turned into our special secret. A bit forbidden, great tasting and magical. A great childhood memory of Granddad and eucalyptus!

It wasn’t until I moved to Australia in 1994 that I realized eucalyptus isn’t ONE scent, that there are many different fragrances in the Eucalyptus family. When exposed to them all I immediately fell for the Lemon Scented Gum, the Citriodora, and have been using that essential oil to represent eucalyptus since the start of this business for our wheatbags. But it’s time for the more common, scent, the more “medicinal” one, to make an appearance amongst the choice of fragrances. Welcome to EUCALYPTUS GLOBULUS essential oil! It has been requested for a while from customers so alas, here we are. It is a very familiar scent for most Australians. But don’t worry, The Lemon Scented Gum can still be chosen in our drop down box on each product page under its own name. If you choose Eucalyptus though, you will now get the standard Globulus and not the lemony one.

Please note we will NOT be bringing Eucalyptus Globulus scented wheatbags to markets and events, only the Lemon Scented Gum ones. We figure there are enough choices as there is and if you are keen you can shop them online.

Ring/text/email/facebook me and I will assist with any queries.
