I had a great Strategc Session at Studio Fresh Australia last week. The Owner and Creative Director Wendy is truly a creative person who is surrounded by handmade goodness! She designs her products and creates the artwork for the personalising them as well!! I also visited her garden and her chooks & scored limes & fresh eggs!

My favourite item was The Nanny Purse…. based on a purse her Nanny gave her… what a lovely story!

The range is gorgeous:

Leather Bags & Purses
Canvas Bags & Tea Towels with great graphic text
Shopping Bags
Purses and wallets based on Indigineous Art
Fair Trade Shipping Bags that are hand embroidered and zip up

The great thing about a lot of th range is that it is Hand Made – I love that!

CONTENTS: Party, Christmas, Home, are wholesalers who design as well as select their ranges worldwide. It is a family business, that has been operating for over 30 years, with everyone paying a vital role to ensure the best product is sourced and the highest standard of customer service is delivered.

I had the pleasure of working on the Contents stand at the February 2011 GHA Trade Fair (pic below of their stand under the GHA post). Not only is the product gorgeous but their customers are just as lovely and spoke so highly of the Contents team.

The products are expanding and evolving in all key areas; Party, Christmas and Home.

My only regret about Harbour Day Spa is that I was not in the same city as this gorgeous business!! Owners Leanne, Tracey and their staff are devoted to their customers and to creating an experience with every visit. This made my job so easy, once we started their facebook page they customers instantly connected!
