Such lovely photos!

Lime Green Bean had such an awesome time at The Fat Olive Organic & Craft Market this past Saturday. I met some fantastic people and it was so lovely to feel part of a community. I will definitely go again when I can :)

I wanted to take some photos of my stand, but.. as luck would have it my cameras batteries were totally flat! Fortunately Tiaan was super kind and offered to take some for me. He has a whole bunch of other photos of the market on his blog, so be sure to have a look!

Aren't they lovely? Thanks so much Tiaan!!

 It still has my name and address in :)

Yummy! Felt Food!

Hope you all have a super day!

A lovely Market Day!

Lime Green Bean was delighted (to say the very least) to be at the Blos Mark this past Saturday.

It was amazing – the atmosphere was so relaxed and really reminded me of my many years in Cape Town!

There was so much fun for the kids and they were literally standing in queues to have their faces painted and when I saw how amazing they looked, I kind of wished I could have mine done too!!

There were also balloon animals for all the kids and of course the piñata was an absolute hoot! It took many a man to get that piñata open, but you can just imagine the elation thereafter!

Lime Green Bean stand

I really, really loved being there – the people were so friendly and loved my Lime Green Bean goodies – thank you all for your amazing support!

I just loved my little “shop” for the day – I worked really really hard, but it was SO worth it!

The Onesies were a real hit!

Lots of felt food and handmade clips!

Felt food display.. good enough to eat!

Bean Buddy Brooch kits

The market was perfectly organised and everything was beautifully presented and catered for. The Jazz band was awesome, and everyone brought their blankets and just relaxed under the big trees and had a really relaxing day .. and the food.. oh .. don’t get me started on the food..

I am happy to say that Lime Green Bean will certainly be at the next Blos Mark and I really hope to see you all there!

Take care,
Bean

A New Year and a New Look for Lime Green Bean

I decided to give Lime Green Bean a little “facelift” and in the coming months you can expect to see a whole new Lime Green Bean website.  I changed the logo to add a LIME GREEN BEAN and decided to keep with the heart theme.. well.. because I love hearts.. except the new heart has wings! Even better!!

Here’s what the “old” logo looked like:

More of the old logo..



Drum roll please.... 

TA DAAAA!

Here’s the new Lime Green Bean logo! What do you think?

I have already made a few changes to the website. Check them out here.  Here’s what the "old" website looked like:



In the course of the year I will (I’m already busy) have an all new website with awesome features. Unfortunately these things take time so we will all just have to be patient. In the mean time you expect to see a whole lot of new Lime Green Bean goodies that I will post on the website as the new products are designed and tested.

Looking forward to a fabulous new year!

Take care,
Bean
