At many primary schools around Sydney this week, kids and their nanas and pops, celebrated grandparents day. Our dad took time off from his work, getting the new Milly and Eugene premises ready, and he and mum headed down to the local public school where two of our littlies have just started in kindergarten this year. Our kids have a lot to do with their grandparents and have done since they were born, but even so they were still so excited to have their Nanny and Poppy come to their school to see them and visit their classroom.
Big news this week, friends. Milly and Eugene will soon be opening the doors of our new store in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. The online side of our business will remain the same but for those who live in Sydney, you will soon be able to come visit us and see, touch and feel for yourselves the wonderful things you see on our website store.
It's alway a fun day when it's shoot day at Milly and Eugene. We have had a bit of practice with them now, so we know the drill. Our morning started at 8.30am, to get in early, making use of the beautiful natural light, in our go to studio (aka window ledge in Hailey's house).
We have always been big fans of the Real Living Magazine and as subscribers from way back we always wait eagerly for that monthly delivery. That little run to the letterbox was even more worth it this time, as hidden between the pages is a little Milly and Eugene gem. We could not believe after such a short time of launching our site, being asked to be a part of the Real Living September issue. This months addition features our lovely little 20cm neon orange Buddha.
WOW! No words... we are totally, utterly, completely overwhelmed by the reaction we've had to our very first competition. Hailey and I launched our online home wares just shy of a month and wanted to give all of our friends that, like, comment and follow our posts on instagram and Facebook, a massive thank you for the support you've shown in such a short time. So talking yesterday, we thought why not give away something beautiful!
