Time for Tea is Purple Sparkle style of course, and none of it is edible or drinkable - but delicious in it's own way! :-)
As for time management. I'm bad at it. Very bad at it. It clicked at some point in the middle of last week, when I had stayed up until 3am working in the Purple Sparkle Kitchen (in Bath) and then got up in the morning to go and open the Purple Sparkle Shop (in Wincanton). This is a regular occurance, as is having a quiet day in the shop, then rushing home after I close at 4pm to start work in the kitchen. Wouldn't it make alot of sense to combine the two?
So this is the plan. After I've finished this blog post (whilst I am making some strawberry cupcake candles at the same time - multitasking is good) I will be taking a trip to Ikea to purchase oodles of storage for all of my supplies at the shop. Tomorrow I'll be going to Wincanton to clear out what is currently my junk room behind the shop, and build flat pack shelving (there may be tears!) and Wednesday Bryn and I will be loading up with all the supplies and equipment, and moving it all away from the soon to be ex-Purple Sparkle Kitchen!
Teatime ATC as a break from my rambles.
So.. the benefits of this should be...
~ Increased opening hours at the shop
~ Time in the evenings to work on other projects
~Orders completed in a better time frame
~Having a kitchen at home to be a domestic goddess in enabling me to cook nutritious meals using vegetables dug from my organic vegetable patch and becoming slim and beautiful
Am I getting a little carried away? Maybe we should scrap the last one on that list, but even doing that it seems to good to be true. I'm used to living in chaos, and I can't quite imagine things any other way.
So I'm a bit nervous. But it has to be done!
Wish me luck!

Sounds like a wonderful plan! I am so envious you have a proper shop to sell your wares in; so difficult on line where you can't see things 'in the flesh' or smell them! Good luck!!!
Hiya, I love your Time for Tea range, it is so pretty.
And as for your plan, sounds perfect to me! Keep us updated, with pics of course.
Your plan sounds perfect . . . you must be shattered at burning the candle at both ends!
Love the Tea time range - really sweet.
