We have now got a small range of clips available for your little one. Bright, Funky, Simple & Cute there is a range of colours and combinations to choice from.
Available online now at Woddle Bots.
Our Retailer "Handle with Care" will be taking some of our products with them to an up and coming market in September.
They will be at Canberra Handmade market on Saturday 12th September from 10am-4pm. It is held at the Yarralumla Woolshed in Canberra.
Be sure to pop down and check out all of their wonderful products including some great boys sets & applique t's, not to mention our AIO nappies.
Well after my wonderful holiday, although I will admit I did terribly miss both the men in my life, I am home with Kyla and back to the normal day to day life.
With a few changes, J worked on the office while I was away. New floor, painted the walls and then we went shopping to refit it out. Oh.My.God it looks amazing and just how I pictured it. Just need to finish moving the finished clothing/nappies into their new homes down stairs and we are all set.
Wonder how long it will stay looking this good??
I am all inspired and now really want to do up my creative sewing space upstairs, sadly the shed and driveway are coming first so it will have to wait a little longer.
Promise to be back with what is happening, what I have been spending money on (opps) and what is in the pipeline soon. I am running with my current cleaning bug and getting some much needed catching up done around the very neglected house.
WOW!
Woddle Bots has made into the latest edition of Junior Style Collective.
This is a great step, although I am not 100% happy with the pictures as I didn't have an iron in my house until Friday and the pictures had a deadline, oh well happy none the less.
A big THANKS to Liss for her work on the blurb for me, such a wonder with words and every so appreciated, given the last minute I asked her and how quickly she got back to me.

That's right.
I have bitten the bullet and Woddle Bots is heading to the Mundaring Sunday Markets.
They are a local market held monthly that showcase's locally handmade items. From garden products to clothing to something yummy for your tummy.
We have been for a wander before and it is out of pure slackness that I haven't organised to head up there as a seller before now.
So Sunday 12th July 2009 from 9am - 3pm we will be there.
Pop in and say hello if you are in Perth.
What is your preferred way to purchase items??
Me, personally am definitely a set person. Everything in Kyla's cupboard is hang like a set, whether they are made as a set or I make her wear them as a set. Kaleb's was the same when he was younger but he now just messes it up or insists on picking himself, so no real point.
Some items of clothing I have been making and listing as sets, others I have only been making the top or a bottom with obviously the understanding that I can make something to match if people would like. But am wondering what the rest of the world prefers to buy their items like, hence the question.
Would you prefer to see products list as top/pant sets OR as individual tops & pants???
Of all of the wonderful stock I have just finish photographing ready to load for selling during June. Some items will appears in a couple of locations, others will only be available in one location and alot of actually one off items. All items will be listed on Woddle Bots main site.
Bare with me there are quite a few to load, there will also pictures of our new 'Plain Jane & Jack' range of pants to follow very shortly.

It has been a busy week at Woddle Bots this week.
Nappies walking out that door and more waiting to be made. From return customers, old customers and new customers it has been excellent. So I thought I would share a picture of what a 2 day pack of Small AIO Nappies looks like

I would like to thank Shelly for her business and am sure that her new grandson will look wonderful with Woddle Bots on his, well bot.
I got an email today with the winner of the Fat Mum Slim giveaway from Friday.
It was Erin who has selected this item for her little woman

Look forward to doing it again soon, possible with Chantelle, possibly with someone else.

I am on the way to the post office, well as soon as I can drag myself out into the rain so thought I would show you some of the parcels that are leaving today. There are a Reversible Dress, Cord Pants & Overalls and that is just the clothes not even the nappies that are leaving today.
So some people need to keep their eyes peeled for the postie in the coming week.....
I really need some HELP, advice, suggestions, anything!
So my new labels arrived today, really quickly considering they came from overseas BUT I am so silly, stupid, dumb..... They are massive and I never noticed when I was sent the sample picture:
I have had a play with them today, for my nappies anyways which do you prefer? Left (purple) or Right (White/Green)
As for clothes, I am considering folding it in half so you can see the name. Am going to try it out later tonight and will show pictures for your thoughts. I tried to cut the labels but obviously they feel appart along the side, I did applique one on there but it doesn't really look right.
*sigh*
Only 495 more till they are all gone!
*sigh*
21st May 2009
Alright here are some pictures of the labels on pants. Note they have been hand stitched as it is easier to move/remove/change them that way.
What do you think?
Chantelle from Fat Mum Slim is having a Giveaway week this week to celebrate getting her own domain name. So far this week she has put up some awesome prizes to giveaway, I particularly like todays one :)
I know Chantelle from an online forum we both frequent so thought I would donate some gifts for this giveaway. So I am excited to say that Friday Woddle Bots (Inspired by Children) will be donating the choice of one of three items as the giveaway.
Be sure to check out Fat Mum Slim blog and leave your daily comments for your chance to be in the running for some wonderful prizes and be sure to check back Friday for a great a clothing giveaway.
That's right Woddle Bots, or me got our first wholesale order for nappies this week :)
*bounce*
I am happy, excited and pleased to announce that as of this week Woddle Bots nappies will be available from Handle With Care Nappy & Baby Boutique. Handle With Care was established in 2008 as a joint venture between two stay at home mums, Heather & Alison. Here is a little bit about the woman from HWC:
this is when our little baby started to grow its arms and legs. We started to find a great list of products we wanted to stock…unfortunately we have had to keep a lid on most of these as we have had to ensure we can manage this business whilst keeping our families as our priority.
I look forward to a great relationship with this company, hopefully the first of many retails for Woddle Bots products.

OK so this is the first time I have done this and I am so excited :)
I am going to run a competition, I need some help picking from the great range of fabrics I recently discovered - I'm in so much trouble - from Fabricworm. So what is the challenge I hear you asking???
I would like to pick four different fabrics, at least two that can work together to make creations for my Oz Handmade store. The person or person that fit the fabrics that best suit my needs will go into a random draw to win 1/2 a yard of their choice of fabric or a Woddle Bots creation made from them from their choice if fabric.
So get shopping, competition closes 7th May 2009 so that gives you a little under a week to pick the best fabric's possible :) Leave your links either in the comments or email them to me at woddlebots@bigpond.com

ETA - Also be sure to check out our Mad May Sales which starts today, for the entire month of May. One sale at Woddle Bots & Oz Handmade, different sales at different sites!
What a week it has been and I really do feel like I haven't stopped.
Between the children, the housework, the running around, the shopping and of course setting up the new website and then a store on Oz Handmade... I feel like I haven't stopped, although I must have as I did manage to finish yet another book :)
So where are we at I hear you asking?
~ Woddle Bots new store is ready to go and just waiting patiently or not so for the domain to switch over to the new site, hopefully by Monday still.
~ Woddle Bots @ Oz Handmade has a heap of products loaded already and I am pretty impressed with how things are looking, has to be something right? I still have a few more pictures to take tomorrow (weather is shocking here today so not the best lighting) and hopefully get those last few items up on the site ready for the launch on Monday.
~ Shopping, I went again and got somemore winter fabrics not to mention some that arrived here by the lovely postman during the week.
~ Sewing, I finished a birthday present, a few other items and also some nappies and I have pictures to share with you. The nappies are something different, something I hadn't done for a long time (well some) and something I haven't done before at all. Let me know what you think.
Alright, well back to it I guess because otherwise I am not going to meet my deadlines. Will be back at some stage to show the clothing pictures.
