I bought myself a present...

I love this present I bought myself yesterday.

Now you might be picturing that I bought myself something like this....

And as much as I love the above, I don't think they'd make me as excited as what I bought yesterday.

TA DA!

Yeah I know, you're probably like 'Hmmm well that was an anti climax' but seriously people this baby is a life saver! You see I've always handwritten my addresses onto sticky labels for all my orders as my printer doesn't like feeding or printing the sticky sheets.
And when it came to posting this many envelopes on Friday alone....


I thought right, I've got to do something about this! So that's why my new Label Printer is my new best friend!!! I think I'll be having lovely dreams about the soft whirrrrr of my little printer for the next few nights. hehehhee.

Have a great day everyone, think of me sitting at my desk pushing the 'print' button with glee!

  1. Those things are great - my mother-in-law has one for all the crafty things she makes and sells and it's wonderful. Wow, you have lots of orders at the moment, so glad you little business is going so well and that you're able to work successfully whilst still being able to enjoy being home with gorgeous little Will :) How's his poor little finger going? Enjoy your day xx

  2. Ah, I know well the appeal of a new piece of gadgetry - love it! I've lusted after one of these since I was a kid, and when I finally bought my own I was like a kid in a lolly shop! This is coming from the woman who chose a dishwasher over an eternity ring - I know! But hey, after three kids I've never once regretted my decision, and I keep telling myself, the longer it takes me to get the ring, the bigger the diamond will be! K xx

  8. Haha! We're easily pleased! My husband has one of these for work and I couldn't stop playing with it the other week! For a laugh I made a label saying 'Angelina Jolie' and stuck it to my forehead! Only to jump in the car to go to 7 Eleven and forget about it... Luckily I saw my reflection in the door and managed to grab it before anyone saw!
