Introducing our face lift!Finally it has arrived - our new look website! To those of you who are new subscribers - welcome! To all our existing subscribers - wow, what a face lift eh? Our new website has been a while in coming, but worth the wait! Whereas we have traditionally had two websites - one for our finished products (www.plushfolly.com) and one for our workshops, distance learning programmes, kits and packaging (makeyourowncosmetics.co.uk) - we have now merged the information, chopped, changed and generally botoxed and emerged with a beautiful, hopefully easy to use and informative, fabulous transformation! Both the above web addresses will navigate you to the new site so no need to update your favourites and bookmarks. As well as making it easier for us to maintain, we did this for you - so if you feel there is anything else you'd like to see on the site, please let us know. Our contact details are at the end of the newsletter. |
