I'm so excited to finally be able to show you my shiny, revamped website for the green gables!
Now, it doesn't look radically different (I was already very happy with how it looks) but it has several new features and additions which make it easier to use and to find just what you're looking for. Plus there are some lovely new products you haven't seen before (more on this below). Let me show you…
There are more categories on the home page, listed on the left hand side and also showing images for each category in the central section (scroll over to see the images change). So now you can look in your area of interest, such as ideas for gifts for her or for him, or decorations or gifts for weddings, on the theme of love…
Below this category list on the left hand side is a new search function so you can type in a word to help you find what you're looking for…
And, it's only little but can be v useful, on every page, in the top left you will see a little line of words telling you whereabouts you are on the website…
You'll notice that a Downloadables category has been added to the list. This isn't quite ready yet but will have things like mini paper bunting, gift tags and greeting cards – you order as usual but rather than waiting a few days for a parcel to arrive, I will email you a pdf and you can instantly print out your purchase as many times as like!
There are also some new creations you won't have seen before! To add to my family of artwork I have created new pieces using used vintage postage stamps…
find them here
The stamps are in fantastic condition and with post marks just visible on the corner of each stamp, I love imagining where the stamps have been, what countries they have travelled across. As each piece of art uses the original stamps it is unique. Framed prints of each stamp art are also available.
And last but not at all least, I am delighted to announce that my first range of kitchenware is now complete!
find there here
You can now pretty up your kitchen with co-ordinating aprons, tea towels (both made with 100% organic cotton) and mugs featuring my hand drawn, heart bunting design in turquoise and the words 'a-bunting we will go'. Plus I have put them together in a variety of kitchenware sets which make gorgeous gifts and will save you money!

Enter my giveaway and you could win yourself a heart bunting mug! Simply leave a comment on this post and I will pick a winner after 14 August.
I hope you like the new the green gables website as much as I do, happy browsing!
Love the heart bunting idea! Thanks for the giveaway :)

Trying again.... Last time I said that I had left comments for you everywhere else so I ought to leave one here too! I had been the first at that point! Can't remember what else I said - perhaps just that I liked them A LOT! :))

Wow! It's amazing how a few little changes to your website has made it so different! Very impressive. And, obviously, loving the new kitchenware bits & pieces! Will have to put the mug on my Christmas list, tho I won't be telling my OH as he insists we have enough mugs! No such thing in my book. Congrats x
