We’re back! Happy New Year Everyone!
I hope you all had a lovely Christmas & New Years ✨
I had 2 weeks off in Sydney spending time with our friends and family.
And boy did I do a lot of reflection! 2025 was tougher for me than previous years. The cost of living mixed with a chain store offering $2 heliums and everyone thinking Temu is better 😅 really affected my business and made me look into what 2026 is going to look like.
I have contemplated selling many many times! But I love what I do, I just can longer run my business as a hobby and I need to focus this year on running it as a business. My time is precious and my weekends doing balloons and not spending it with my little family need to worth it!
I will be using the next 6 months to really give it a crack before stepping away, which will mean new products, new pricing and hopefully some new customers in addition to my yearly amazing regulars.
I wanted to thank everyone for your support in shopping local and supporting my family business and for understanding that it’s not “just balloons” it’s not the same as “temu” I can’t match a $2 balloon and that my time, skills, product and every bit of my heart I put into my work is valued and appreciated. It truly means the world to me!
So here’s to 2026 giving it once last shot before you see the post up with everything for sale 😭🤞
