It’s little things like these that make me smile every time!! 💕

We’ve seen first steps, first babyccinos, first outings as a big brother or sister and I love celebrating these milestones with you! 🥰

Obviously I don’t smile when little ones leave crying… but I definitely take it as a compliment that they don’t ever want to leave!! 🤭🤣

Wow, what a morning we had today! .onthe.wild.side visited Pen & Pearl Studio for the first time today and we had a great time learning all about of their furry and not so furry animals!

There was guinea pigs, stick insects, millipedes, an owl, a lizard and snakes and there were lots of brave little hands keen to get involved and hold/touch these wonderful creatures!

I was quite adamant at the start of the morning that I wouldn’t be holding or touching any animals but by the end of the session I was stood with a python in my hands… quite keen to hand it back might I add!! 🐍

We ended the morning with bravery medals for all the kids, however I think some of the adults may have needed a medal too! 🤭

Hands up if you want Vicky & Josh to come back with more of their animal collection!? 🙋‍♀️

Just a little reminder that we are closed today and tomorrow (Sunday 7th and Monday 8th)…

1. It’s my birthday today 🥳
2. The coffee machine is still broken so I couldn’t open even if I wanted to! 🥴

We’ll be back to business on Tuesday but for now I’m taking it as a sign from the universe to enjoy my birthday weekend and have some time off! 🤭

Happy Sunday everyone! 💜

The last statistic shocked me a bit if i’m being honest!! 😳

We’re halfway through the year now and I’ve been having lots of spreadsheet fun! 🤓 The longer that the shop is open, I really enjoy looking through all the numbers and trying to find any emerging patterns…. and for full disclosure, minus the last stat there are absolutely none! 😂🤣

🔹 I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… anything poo related sells! I know my demographic and my customer loves a bit of toilet humour! 💩

🔹 Before I opened the shop I knew that some days would be slower than others, it’s all part of owning a shop, but WOW! On my worst day I took £34.40. The following day I took triple that amount in less than 20minutes… Make it make sense! 🤯

🔹 Our teeny tiniest visitor so far was only 3 days and it made me feel all fuzzy inside when the family told me that my shop was the first place they’d visited as a family of 4! 🥹 

🔹 Pombears are a firm snacky favourite at Pen & Pearl Studio! Often bought as bribes to lure little ones into the pram and avoid any meltdowns when they leave! 🤣

🔹 I’ve only recently delved into the spreadsheets to figure this out and until now, I thought that the coffee shop would be a much higher percentage than the gift shop but I was very pleasantly surprised that month on month so far, they only vary very slightly! 🤩

Back with another monthly round up! Here’s what we got up to in May! 💜

Loads of new toys got added to our play area and the diggers in particular have gone down a treat with our regular little visitors!

We have a ‘take you daughter to work’ day which was interesting! Safe to say she ate a lot of marshmallow bribes that day and we both slept well that night! 😅

We’ve started offering iced coffees and also introduced a few specials drinks… did someone say Biscoff?! 👀

Our new badges have been very well received! Loads more designs for these are in the pipeline!

We’ve added a hopscotch to the shop floor and everyone is loving this… adults included! I might make it a new rule that you can only use the toilet if you hopscotch your way to it?!?🤔

I’ve finally got round to adding a little window display in to show off some of our wonderful new products!

I had an exciting trip to the wholesalers and found lots of new sauces and syrups for drinks!! 🤩

It’s been a busy one… very much looking forward to June for a holiday and much needed break! 🤭

New books have dropped and this delivery did not disappoint!!

We’d practically sold out of all of our kids books so I’ve replaced some of our bestsellers and added a few more into the mix. The newest additions are not to be missed!!

I know you’re not meant to judge a book by it’s cover, but it’s hard not to when they all look this good!

Don’t say I didn’t warn you!! 🤭

But seriously, I can’t promise that you won’t have the best time, eat too much cake, drink too much coffee (in peace whilst your little one has too much fun!)

We’re open all weekend from 10am until 3pm, cake counter is fully stocked, the shop is bursting with gorgeous gifts and the play area is ready to be untidied!! 🤭

IT’S FRIDAY!! 🥳

Join me for a busy day in the shop (disclaimer, I definitely forgot to record most of the middle section of the day! 🫣)

There’s been lots of coffee and babyccinos today, shop volume was extra loud at times and so many Christmas pressies being bought (you organised bunch!) it’s been a blast and I can’t wait to do it all again tomorrow! 🤭

See you from 10am tomorrow morning! 💕
