25.01.2022 Anyone who knows me knows I’m a sucker for leopard print, so it only makes sense to have a few spotty items scattered throughout the shop!

23.01.2022 Here are our open times and days before I close my shop permanently. Thank you to everyone that came in on Friday and Saturday, your support was honestly amazing. Even though the shop is looking a little bare, there is still plenty of great gift ideas for Christmas and stocking filler options too! ... And don’t forget there is 10% off storewide! Hope to see you all over these last 6 days that I’ll be open. Thanks again, Miranda x

23.01.2022 Just touching base to let you all know that given the circumstances, I have decided to reduce our current opening hours. With everything going on and Bunyip being in the current lockdown, mask wearing area, I have decided to only open Fri 11-5pm and Sat by appointment. Aside from the above open hours, I will also be offering free delivery to the local area. ... I will post a heap of items on our stories in the coming days and if you see anything there (or in our feed) you’d like to purchase that aren’t on the website, just send me a DM and we can arrange. We also have free gift wrapping if needed. This is a hard time for everyone and I will try my best to continue to look after all my wonderful customers as much as possible, whether the shop is open or not. I will keep you in the loop when we’re back on board with our normal hours. Hopefully it’s sooner rather than later! These new hours will be effective as of next week so I am still open tomorrow (Thursday) 11-3pm. Thanks for understanding. Miranda xx

22.01.2022 For all the cat lovers out there!

21.01.2022 Check out our feature in the current issue of @gippsland_lifestyle magazine! Thank you to the lovely Lia for the article. Being a small business in a small town in a world that’s currently turned on it’s head is not easy, but gee it’s worth it. ... I know I say it a lot but the local support is just amazing and I wouldn’t be able to stay open without you all so thank you from the bottom of my heart. #gippslandlove See more

19.01.2022 Just a reminder that we have click and collect available until 3pm today and free local delivery this afternoon.

19.01.2022 Just a reminder that we’re open tomorrow 11-5pm! Come say hi!

18.01.2022 Just a reminder that we’re open today until 3pm. As of next week, we’ll only be open on Friday’s 11-5pm until further notice. I will be around though so please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need anything.

18.01.2022 Currently burning the @celia.loves Strawberry Champagne fragrance in store. Smells aahhmazing! We’re open til 5pm today so come say hi!

17.01.2022 We’ve just had a small restock of our candles with two new additions, Freesia & Ripe Berries and Driftwood & Sage (which could be my new favourite)! We have also had a small restock of the very popular Lychee Guava Sorbet candles.

16.01.2022 We are open today until 4pm and then we are open Friday and Saturday and that’s it before we close for good. Would love to see you all before I close so down and say hello. x

15.01.2022 I’ve had quite a few people message me over the last 24hrs asking if I’ll be staying open with the new lockdown in place. At this stage the answer is yes but with every day being a bit uncertain at the moment, whether it stays that way is another thing. I will be offering free local delivery during this time and I will be trying to get the website updated with new products as soon as possible. You can also DM me if you need to arrange anything. ... On a side note, I’ve just had a restock of these very popular puzzles today and the website has been updated also. I know no one wants to be in lockdown again but at least these babies will keep you occupied! Thinking of everyone going through these challenging times. x

13.01.2022 So as of tomorrow night I have to close my little shop for 6 weeks. This is both equally sad and frustrating. 2020 has certainly made my first year in the shop a difficult one! Having said all that, even though the physical shop is closed, the online store is still very much open so please continue to support my small business during these difficult times. I will try and work with everyone to arrange contactless local deliveries, click and collect and of course I still hav...e the option of shipping via Australia Post. Also, if you see something posted on here that isn’t in our online store, please just send me a DM and we can arrange payment over the phone etc. If you have any questions at all please don’t hesitate to contact me. Sending positive vibes to everyone and I hope we all get through this next 6 weeks ok. Miranda xx

13.01.2022 There’s no easy way to say this so I’m just going to cut straight to the chase. After weeks and weeks of back and forth I have come to the decision to close my giftshop in Bunyip (the online store will stay open at this stage). It’s hasn’t been an easy decision but due to the challenges of Covid and the uncertainty of the near future that Covid brings, I feel it is the best decision for myself and my family. ... I’m sorry if I have let anyone down or disappointed anyone. I have really enjoyed bringing my little gift shop to the town and have loved getting to know so many locals. I will miss going there everyday. At this stage I am hoping to open the shop for click and collect on Friday and then the rest will depend on what Dan Andrews decides over the next few days. I don’t have an official closing date at this stage but it will be sometime in the next 3-4 weeks. After what has been a pretty tough few months, I really hope to be able to open properly for the last couple of weeks and see your faces in my shop again. Thank you for all your support over the last year, it’s honestly been amazing. Miranda x (If you want to arrange click and collect for this Friday through insta instead of the website, please send me a DM)

13.01.2022 After working on these Outdoor Cushions since November last year, I’m so excited to finally have them on display in the shop! For those that don’t know, these are from by new business @marloandcoliving. The cushions are designed, printed and made in Australia, they are fade resistant and water repellent and they are made from 100% Linen! ... They don’t officially launch until September so you won’t be able to purchase them until then, but in the meantime you can give the new biz a follow and sign up to the waitlist at www.marloandcoliving.com.au if interested.

12.01.2022 Shop Tour Sunday! If you see anything you like that isn’t on our online store, just send me a DM for any questions or to arrange purchase.

12.01.2022 Just a reminder that we are open tomorrow from 9:30am-4:30pm! I can’t wait to see all your faces!

10.01.2022 We are open until 1pm today and there’s still plenty of beautiful gifts left in store. Come say hi!

09.01.2022 Just a reminder that the online store is still open and I’m offering Free Local Deliveries on Friday’s during the lockdown period.

07.01.2022 Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who is following along while I navigate the craziness of owning a small business. Much love! x

07.01.2022 So excited that we finally have a restock of @brightwood.blooms amazing dried flower arrangements. Keep an eye on our stories tonight for some individual pics and prices!

07.01.2022 Only three of these gorgeous puzzles left!

05.01.2022 Restocked! These beauties went for a three week detour before arriving in store but they finally made it! They make the perfect gift for this time of year and have been popular for new mum gifts as they can be heated up and put in bubs’ bassinet so the little ones don’t go from Mum’s warmth to a cold sheet.

04.01.2022 This @journeyofsomething puzzle is definitely giving me a new challenge in ISO. I consider myself pretty good at puzzles but this one is taking longer than I care to admit!

04.01.2022 New @brightwood.blooms arrangements available! Check out our stories for more. Free local delivery this afternoon or contactless pick up in store until 3pm today. DM for more details.
