my new logo
I haven’t had a logo for my business before, just using a particular font to make the name how I wanted it…. But I’ve been thinking lately that I want a proper logo. but what?
I’d wanted a woman… since I specialise in products for women.. but I also do eco-friendly things, so I wanted something earthy…… and I wanted something that also embraced my Pagan side…. so I sketched what I wanted, and had someone turn it into a logo for me (I’m not arty enough) I love it!
A woman….. who is a tree….. who is reaching up to embrace the power of the Universe… with her hair forming branches, but also the purple shading forms a subtle Witch’s hat 
I’ve been playing around with how to make this into a banner for my website

Computer accessory sets, to beautify your desk! Sets of a keyboard cushion, wrist cushion, mouse pad and coaster all in a matching print fabric.
The mousepad, wrist and keyboard cushions feature a removable cover, so they can be taken off for washing. These cushions provide a soft comfortable rest for your wrist and hands while using the computer.
Also individual wrist cushions (some even scented!)

And you’ll find more of the Inked and Lacy pads as well as some Geisha pads

GDUNH
I wanted to do a post about the hunt, because I wanted some feedback I wanted to make the hunt fun, rather than completely baffling…. so I’ve started if off with a clue that has 2 parts… going off looking for letters to make up a word…. as an excuse to have a massive list of words for people to click on.
But… not sure if anyone has noticed, but there are (at my count) 75 phrases/combinations of words that I have put in there on purpose
You may also notice that while most of the links (there are over a thousand words there) go to a 404 page (because that linked page doesn’t exist), I have actually bothered to make pages for some of them… and you may find all sorts of things hidden within those pages.
So… let me know if you think you’ve found some of the phrases I’ve put in there, or any of the extra pages…. and let me know what you think.
Just to be clear….. I’m not asking you to complain to me that you can’t find the clues 
and I’ll delete any comments asking for hints etc – I’m only asking for discussion on the hidden pages/phrases that are not actually part of the hunt. ALL hunt related questions/statements are to be done on the DD forum.

New stuff for GDUNH
Hunt starts today! I’ve only had a chance to sew up some of the stuff I’d wanted to, so I’ll have another stocking later in the month. Mostly mini pads, since I’d been asked for them.
But I also did a few Maiden pads
also found a few Goddess and Priestess pads that I hadn’t put online
And… did you know I have reusable cloth sandwich wraps… Available in wipe clean (exposed) PUL, fabric and PUL (where the PUL is not exposed) and cotton (no PUL).

Victorian Bushfire Appeal
In addition to personally making a donation…..I will be donating 10% of all sales (from my Cloth Pad Shop stores and my own online store) to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal until the end of February. This terrible tragedy has affected many people, and it will take a lot of community support to rebuild.
Over at Cloth Pad Shop I’ve set up a store where some of our sellers have put up auctions to help raise money to donate to the appeal. Included in this are 4 hand dyed bamboo velour pads. Please help us raise much needed money and get yourself some lovely pads!

Valentines Love
I’m having a special at the moment (For Australian customers). Free shipping on all orders until midnight 14th February.
To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we have a “Love” theme on Cloth Pad Shop. So I’ve added a few pads in this theme.
I’ve also added a couple of the Mini liners to my Obsidian Star site, and the US side of CPS. Other new products went up on my Obsidian Star site tonight…
Drink bottle bags!
My daughter has one of the Eco-Tankas (as do I)… and I kept getting sick of carrying hers around in my bag too. So I decided to make a carry bag for her to use. It worked so well, I decided I’d add some to my store. They are designed to fit the Teeny Tanka, but would fit any other similar sized bottle. Slightly longer bags with longer straps are coming soon for the Mini Tanka size.. I have some lovely fabrics to do them in… just haven’t had time.
New Produce bags
I stumbled upon a supplier of those mesh bags you find onions and garlic etc. packed in… very lightweight and quite strong. And I figured they would make a great budget produce bag. So I’ve added a drawstring top and they are available in the produce bag section. I still personally prefer the chiffon ones I make, but these are good for people who don’t need them to hold as much and want a cheaper alternative.
