Some of my favourite quotes to inspire you today
It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly. – Mabel Newcomber
You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. – Eleanor Roosevelt
To me, it’s very simple; if you’re going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big. – Donald Trump
The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence. – Eddie Robinson
Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. – Henry Ford
The chief weakness in business organisation is lack of coordination. – Mary Parker Follett
If you don’t go after what you want, you’ll never have it. If you don’t ask, the answer is always no. If you don’t step forward, you’re always in the same place.
Performance stands out like a ton of diamonds. Non-performance can always be explained away. Harold S Geneen
The Meaning of Success to me
I was given a fancy piece of card about Success by Larry S Chengges when I was around 7 yrs old and it is my motto for life and most days I think that I do OK.
I hope that by passing it on it will make somebody else successful. It is a bit tattered and worn but still lives on the fridge where it has been since I left home at 16.
Success is doing the best you can, in as many ways as you can. It is being just and honest and true-not in a few things but everything that you do. Always look ahead and never look back, believe you can make all your dreams come true. Always believe in the best you can be and have faith in the things that you do. Forget about mistakes you’ve made yesterday, the lessons you learn will prove valuable for today…Never give up and think that you’re through for there is always tomorrow and a chance to begin brand new. It is dreaming the greatest dreams and and seeking the highest goals that we build the brightest tomorrows.There is no limit to the goals you can attain, or the success you can achieve your possibilities are as endless as your dreams. Whatever it is that you seek in life, whatever your dreams and what you hope to achieve, whatever you try to reach, whatever you plan can all be yours if you only believe you can.
Have a lovely day.

Website Damage Control
It has been 7 days since my last blog because I have been in damage control.
As of the 1st July when I went live with thehousequeen.com.au the website was perfect, all the categories had something in them, the links worked etc etc.
Last week I went to the sheets section of the website and alas there wasn’t any there!! After a few minutes of checking around I have found that something drastic has happened and the site looks like the gardener got to it with the whipper snipper.
I feel embarrassed and extremely frustrated because after speaking with my Website company “they don’t know what happened” and even after sending them a large list of things that needed to be fixed in my opinion immediately because I certainly did not make any changes today they still have not fixed half of the things and the website still looks disastrous with many things still not working. I CAN FEEL A TANTRUM COMING ON!!!!!!!!
Lets be happy now I have a Sahara Teal Quilt Cover on my desk today and it really is one of my favourites it is gorgeous and my customers and loving them too. I will try to attach a picture for you and the quilt cover and of the baby sleeping bags that we have to keep babies warm this winter.
Keep warm today.

Processing orders
Very exciting day today I have received my first batch of orders I am so excited for the future of my home decor business The House Queen (very late because of stocktake).
The Sahara Teal Quilt Cover is absolutely gorgeous the fabric feels sensational. Lucky for me I have a custom made bed and will have to have something special made from Marina at Pure Linen to fit it.
I have also just felt the Temple Organic Towels from Bambury and they are absolutely gorgeous. I have Linen and Nutmeg here and the nutmeg colour is lovely.
The other thing we have just sent out is the undulation huge beach towel from Bambury and it really is huge, could be combined for a beach shade for the whole family.
My very first order came from a lady in Kadina South Australia who worked at the Bute Shire many sleeps before me. I worked there when I was 16 for four years with the greatest boss I have ever had called Greg O’Connor. Anyway this lady does not really know me but her name rolled around and around in my brain all week.
I finally got the nerve to ask her and well the moral of the story it is a small world so just be nice to all and steer clear of the undesirable vampires that bless our lands.
I am having a lovely day I hope you are too.
I will try to get you some pictures of these products.
