Well good morning! I thought it was about time I broke my 6 month drought on the grid with my happy little face for the 10 or so followers I’ve gained and then lost in that time 😂
I’ve fallen into the happy acceptance that I cannot and will not post consistently on Instagram/ Facebook but just when I feel like (I’m mostly popping up (intermittently) on stories these days).
To be honest a weight has lifted since I came to the realisation that maybe social media is not the best place to dedicate my time.
Don’t get me wrong I’m still lurking in these here parts on a daily basis but when I’m working on my business, my plan is to try and build real life connections. Though since January I’ve mostly been wading through the treacle of a backlog of textile based admin, I shan’t bore you with here (I save that stuff for stories!)) but I’m getting there and as of 1am last night all my fabrics by the metre are BACK UP ONLINE!

Anyway for those who are new, hello! I’m Anna and I’m a printed textile designer. I started Jericho Design House ages ago when my son was still a baby and he’s now 6. It’s been very stop start because turns out running your own business isn’t especially profitable so I also work as a freelance designer and am lucky enough to work for every week.
During that time we’ve also renovated our house (and still not really finished) and lived through home schooling 3 kids between the age of 4 and 10.
I was tempted to pack it all in at the start of the year, but was so incredibly sad without it. I love having my own creative outlet, the connections I’ve built, and I still believe that I have a viable business if I’d only focus on one thing for 5mins! (That being my fabric by the metre business) so I’m here to stay.
🌟 gold star if you’ve read this far!
Oh also don’t forget I have a lampshade workshop coming up on the 25th June in Jericho - 2 spaces 🤗
