💙 🏉 NSW suppawters, I haven't forgotten about you! 🏉 💙

Gather & Gift now has Blues bandannas too.

And at August & Artisan you'll find NSW bandannas. (Sorry, no QLD ones though).

Not local to Wagga or Toowoomba or needing a custom order, send me a message, and I will see what I can do ❤️🐾

🧵 I'm back to sewing 🪡

Resting my elbow has helped, and I am excited to be back at the sewing machine, but I don't want to overdo it, so I will be taking it slow.

A huge thank you to everypawdy for their kind words and suppawt, and giving me a lovely list of orders for my return.

Please note, it is Term 2, which is a reporting term at work (school), and I am in the thick of report writing, marking, and assessment. Therefore, all orders will have a minimum turnaround time of a week. TIA.

Be sure to head into Gather & Gift to buy your cat or dog a Queensland bandanna to show their colours.

Be quick as there is only 1 of each size available in store.

❗️❗️ I NEED YOUR HELP❗️❗️

It is 4 weeks until Comic-Geddon and I want to choose which decal people want to see. I have the bandannas ready, I just need help choosing the text.

So, which text should I add?:

🐾 The force is strong with this one
🐾 May the Paws be with you

Simply comment to let me know which quote you like best, and I will be printing that one and adding it to my space print bandannas ready for Comic Geddon on 14th June.

❗️Waggga locals, shop now before it's gone❗️

My pawsome fellow maker Plantasticbydaley is heading down to August & Artisan this weekend to do a stock drop for a number of us Toowoomba stockist. What that means is, a lot of the current bandannas will be swapped out for different prints.

So, if you haven't checked out what's currently there, or have had your eye on something for a while, be sure to head in-store before the weekend, so that you don't miss out!

😭 Unfortunately, I need to close off orders for the rest of May. After a specialist appointment and treatment for my elbow today, I need to rest it. This means minimal use is best, and no sewing for the time being.

What that means for Once Upon a Daxxie:
Bad news...
🌐 No website orders
📧 No custom orders via DM or email
Good news...
🛍 Stock available at Gather & Gift (Toowoomba, QLD) and August & Artisan (Wagga Wagga, NSW) 🛒

I will re-evaluate at the end of May, and be working with my physio on next steps. For now, ready made stock only. So be sure to check out my two stockists to purchase some of my handmade goodies.
