We’re back! 🤍

What a 3 weeks it’s been! We’ve just returned from the most incredible time — we eloped 💍 And to celebrate, we went on an unforgettable road trip around Texas. It was everything we could have dreamed of and more.

We are SO grateful for your patience with our team while we’ve been away, they have done an amazing job running classes and trying to handle as much as possible whilst we’ve been away. As you can imagine, we have a lot to catch up on, so if you’re waiting to hear from us, please be extra patient — it will take us some time to get caught up!

✨ We’re getting married! ✨

Will and I are heading off to Texas this week to elope, followed by a road trip honeymoon — we honestly cannot wait. It’s been a bittersweet week as we’ve also had to say goodbye to our beloved dog very unexpectedly, so we’re leaving with heavy hearts as well as full ones.

We’ll be away until 15th May, but Fire Nest is in the very best hands. Our wonderful team — Faye, Nikki, and Lee — will be running all classes as normal, glazing your pieces, and keeping on top of admin. Ginny and Amber will also be continuing to help with glazing throughout.

We just ask that you’re a little extra patient with email response times and piece collections during this period — our team will do their absolute best! If anything comes up that they’re unable to help with, we’ll pick it up the moment we’re back from 15th May.

Thank you so much for your continued support — it genuinely means everything to us. 🤍🤠

See you all soon,

~ Phoebe & Will
