Our New Fire

Winter is starting to kick in here in Australia. All we had for heating is a reverse cycle air conditioner. Took ages to warm up and then on occasions felt as if it was blowing cold air. This wasn't the only problem. During the Winter months our quarterly bill was almost $800 and with them putting electricity up by 20% as of 1st July, I say no more.We splurged out on a beautiful gas fire. In the end it cost us $3,750 but over the years it should save us some $$$$ in heating charges. The best of all it is so toasty warm and looks great. I am totally in love with it, never before have I been so excited about a fire. The model - A Rinnai Freestanding Royale ETR and runs on our bottled gas.The controls have a timer setting on it too so we can set it to come on ½ an hour before we wake up and ½ an hour before we get home from work.
Looks like the hub and dogs are pleased with it too!!!

Christmas In July Promo

Do these words conjure up an Australian Christmas for you??

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos
(Torme & Wells, 1946)

No, not usually. Unless, of course, they refer to the Etsy Down Under Street Team (DUST) “Aussie Christmas in July” promotional weekend.

Etsy DUST members from all around Australia are coming together for one whole weekend, 12.01AM Saturday 25th July through to 11.59PM Sunday 26th July (AEST), to showcase their talents & stunningly handmade creations.

All stores participating will be offering a promotion to their customers - free worldwide shipping or % off sales; a selection of items at reduced prices or reverse auctions.

With so much variety, including jewellery, children’s clothing & accessories, art, supplies, vintage items, stationery & bags, you are sure to find something to suit each & every taste.

The DUST team will also be running giveaways for the entirety of the weekend, giving you the opportunity to win some fabulous prizes from Australian sellers. Poke your nose into the Etsy Forums during the promotion for your chance to win.

I encourage you to visit the participating stores, as well as our team website – http://www.dustteam.com/ – and support the handmade revolution sweeping Australia.

Stay tuned for more details as the weekend draws nearer...
