Wow.. just realised 😁😳🥰😌
🙌 Happy 21st to Bexrugs 🙌
I had the idea and desire for a few yrs and then when I became pregnant with Hayden whilst living remotely on a station (Cammeray) and needing something to do… Bexrugs was born ... named by Jaye Hall .. I paid for a service fee to Playrio with rugs and whilst delivering and talking about a name , Jaye suggested Bexrugs… and that was that it stuck.
My fist ever rug was given to Tony Hick for his 21st ..
No idea how many made in total now but
Many… and many additional reinforcements added to make them stronger etc .. pity the fittings and even material quality has decreased in that time though. Along with the many other items added to the production Iist.
I really would like to and have dreamed about growing the business into something really substantial but I have no idea where to start .. ideas ? Who to talk to?
At the same time considering a total career change. But then another nice message comes in or another order to add to my list and away we go again.
I am very proud of Bexrugs and don’t always realise what I have been able to make and do, business side not as much but still learning…
It has not been easy by any means ..
like many of us being pulled in many directions trying to please everyone (yes still haven’t learnt to say no) juggling family and raising 3 great kids.. sacrificing other things I love to try and make it all work!
A big thank you to everyone that has purchased even one item, or been a returning customer for some time. 💓
I really must also thank 2 ladies I rang for advice on how to go about making my pattern..
Kym Rogan was a great help to get the shaping right and the type of horse to use to get it right… Sue Jones gave me the pleat idea.
And ‘Jim’ Scott’s old horse was the model
He was locked up in a largish yard for 4 days or so so I could watch him and saw him roll etc .. and it didn’t move… 👍
Oh and also to Nanna, Scott’s mum who got me my first singer sewing machine (60yrs old at the time) which I still have that I had always planned to display at the front of the shop I always wanted to open.
