I am really chuffed to have been featured in our local newspaper this week, so exciting! Even more exciting for me was that my 2 favourite Blythe girls took center stage!
I haven’t had chance to scan the article onto my computer yet however, you can read it online here and see how it looks in the paper from this quick photograph I took on my phone – look how lovely and big the photo of Christmas (Rainy Day Parade) and Tuppence (Miss Sally Rice) is!
I was very nervous about the interview and completely freaked out when the Head of Content wanted to send a photographer around to my house to photograph me with my dolls! Needless to say, I politely declined the photographer offer and sent across some of my own pics LOL I am fairly sure everyone involved with the article thinks I am completely potty!!
So many people have complimented the article that all my fears as to, how I would come across, what spin would be put on it and whether or not I would be portrayed as a crazy lady, have been put to rest
I would like to thank Robert Zarywacz (@RobertZ) for the time he put into the article and for contacting me in the first place!
With all my excitement, I have completely neglected the My Little Customs Birthday Celebration Promotions and so, to make it up to you, how about a double whammy over the weekend? 15% off all Saran hair and a surprise FREE GIFT when you spend £16 or more!!
To claim the 15% off, enter the coupon code: YAY15 at the checkout
The promotion starts from Midnight (GMT) tonight and will run until Midnight (GMT) on Sunday, February 21st!
WOW – that is all I can say! I cannot believe 3 years has passed so quickly
It seems like only yesterday that I first received a small shipment of Nylon to sell; just 15 colours. 15 colours?!! My, how I have grown!
My Little Customs now carries over 115 colours of Nylon, has gone on to stock over 95 different shades of Saran and most recently, 14 colours of Polypropylene – not to mention all our other stock lines! Fairy Wing making supplies, glues, rerooting supplies and our newest focus, Blythe! Eyechips, kawaii fabrics, tiny buttons, lipstickers, foils, Twiggy Twiggy pull rings … the list is ever growing!
If it wasn’t for the wonderful support I receive from you all, I wouldn’t be where I am today so a massive, huge, enormous THANK YOU to you all
So, without further ado, to kick start our promotions, a small way of saying thank you to our existing customers and a big hello to my newest shoppers – shipping is COMPLETELY FREE for the next 3 days!!
I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and a great New Year
2010 is heralding some big changes for My Little Customs, starting off with new simplified shipping costs.
Postage was previously weight based which meant you never quite knew what the shipping costs would be until you reached the final stage of the checkout, often leading to confusion and complications! Hence new flat rate costs.
The new shipping charges will commence 13/01/10 – until then, FIRST CLASS WORLDWIDE SHIPPING IS FREE!
From January 13th 20120, the new shipping tarriff will be as follows:
FREE WORLDWIDE SHIPPING* when you spend £25 or more
*Free shipping is standard First Class Airmail (no tracking)
Please note – any orders placed at My Little Customs.com over the New Year period will be processed and dispatched on Monday 4th January – have a lovely New Year, enjoy the festivities and I will see you all in 2010!
I just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas
Please note, that all orders placed over the festive period will be processed ready for shipping on December 29th.

First off, I am SO PLEASED to announce that Royal Mail are back to normal and my headache has been cured! LOL I managed to survive the strikes more or less unscathed, only one package is still awol so nowhere near as bad as expected!
There will be a mini celebration announced shortly so keep your eyes peeled!
On to the subject of My Little Pony – over the weekend I was helping a good friend of mine to identify some My Little Ponies when the topic turned to how to clean them up ready for sale. I immediately went to refer her to Moonfire’s G3MLP site for the amazing “Pony Salon” tutorials on how to wash and style MLP hair when to my horror, I discovered it gone!
After a quick Google search, I found no other site with a similar picture tutorial so was wondering if it was worth me doing one for you?
It is such a shame to see Moonfire’s site is down, it was an incredibly helpful site which I often referred people to – I do hope Moonfire is ok, where ever she may be
Just a quick note to let you know that all orders will be sent today – hopefully in a bid to sneak in before the next round of strikes scheduled for 121,000 postal workers UK-wide for 24 hours from 3am on Friday 6th November and for 24 hours from 3am Monday 9th November.
The good news is that the majority of mail has still been getting through; however, my concern now is focused on backlogs rather than deliveries. Should you be worried about your items, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Don’t forget, we are offering an 24 hour Courier Service with Interlink Express during this time should you require your items quickly. Please note, the courier requires signature upon delivery so please ensure someone will be at the designated delivery address.
If no-one will be available to sign for your order or you would prefer it to be sent via Royal Mail instead, don’t worry, just drop a note with your order to let me know you would prefer Royal Mail.
I am doing everything in my power to keep you all updated and to maintain the same high standard of customer service and delivery that you have come to expect from My Little Customs
