The Space Rocket has a new home At The Mill, Conway Street. You never know they might even let me keep it there if you all come visit! You could even grab lunch at the lovely Doorsteps cafe whilst your there :) #CNB14

So I didn’t get too many photos last night as it was so blooming hectic! Took this one when the #rocket first went up. Was amazing to see the response from the kids. Gonna have an easy weekend now :) if anyone else has pics please let me know. #CNB14

First attempt at putting the rocket up. Had to move outside as we where making a racket. Sorry mill dwellers! And it was a weee bit too tight so gonna have to do some trimming then try again tomorrow.

Designed some tote bags for the Rocket. They’ll be on sale on the 19th. #CNB14
