Things have been going brilliantly, and we are working on lots of new items to bring to you soon.  Keep checking back for more details.

16th January 2010

2009 was an amazing year for Madcatwoman Enterprises.  First, we were one of three local finalists in The Mall's Make Your Mark competition, for new businesses in the area. We followed this up with opening a shop in town on a six month trial basis.  Finally, we launched a lot of new lines in time for Christmas, and have been absolutely run off our feet ever since! The Christmas season was totally insane, and with all hands on deck, and we managed to get every single item ordered for Christmas out on time, with almost 100% being sent out within two working days of an order being placed.

We have lots of brilliant plans for the coming year.  

The first change of the new year is that we have now stopped trading on Ebid auction site.  In spite of Madcatwoman Enterprises plugging this site in excess of five years, it hasn't resulted in any extra trade coming our way.  It is sad when the only advertising an auction site gets is from its sellers, when the site's owners were not prepared to put the same amount of effort and money into publicising their own site. Also, more restrictions were being brought in so often that we felt we were no longer valued as sellers (who also promoted the site in online forums, surveys etc), so reluctanctly we closed our online store there and removed all our auctions.

We are hoping to work on a new range of items to put on Zazzle and other  similar sites in the Spring. 

We are working hard at pulling together the new wholesale section of the site which will be open shortly. We have had lots of new tumblestones come in which we need to categorise, we have a couple of new pirate-related items to add to the site, and a lot of promotional items which have sold brilliantly on Ebay this Christmas.  We are also looking at the possibility of bringing out a range of original and novel designs - but only when we have a spare minute or two!

We are also currently creating a brochure/catalogue which we are hoping will be released in late Spring, where all our items can be sold to people who prefer to deal with companies offline or who don't have internet access.

So, there is an awful lot going off this year, and we'll keep you updated about it all.

14th September 2009

Some drop-dead gorgeous beaded t-shirts and beaded tutus for kids are in our high street shop now, and these will be added to our online store within the next few days.  There is also a range of unusual magnetic hematite/haematite jewellery, with necklaces which can also double as wrap-round bracelets too - extra value for money buying one item with two purposes!

Also, new chokers - these are for women, and larger sizes available for men, TVs, transsexuals, transgender, female impressionist etc.






6th August 2009

Some cute jewellery items coming over the next couple of days, including "Cute 'n' Kitsch" range (think skulls, glow-in-the-dark, handpainted wooden beads, dolly mixture, cute fish or dice items), unofficial Severus Snape bracelets and necklaces, unofficial Twilight bracelets, all handmade and designed by Madcatwoman Enterprises and not available anywhere else.  Also "Let's Go Retro", a small range of 1980s-style earrings (the decade that taste forgot) based on Sandra@madcatwoman's own 80's collection!

17th July 2009

The gorgeous range of teddy bears is now back in stock, with the return of some old faces, and many new ones too!

18th June 2009

More new items for June:

 
Gem jars.  Small corked glass jars/bottles measuring between 4 and 4.5cms.  Each jar contains gemstone chips of a colour relating to the chakras.  Choose from clear, yellow, orange, pale pink, deep pink, blue, purple, green or brown.

There are also mummies of the undead (!) of the same size (from the same range) for sale, made from the same shape natural wood as the Russian dolls, and again, each with slightly different expressions.

All of these figures can be drilled through to make pendants, keyring charms, handbag charms, mobiles etc.

Finally, there are some new rune sets available made from natural cedarwood cubes, measuring around three quarters of an inch (2cms) each.  They are available in Witch Stone sets (three cubes) in metallic gold, silver or copper finish, or in Elder Futhark sets (nine cubes) in natural, unvarnished wood.

These items are not offered for sale anywhere else outside Madcatwoman Enterprises and are unique to us.

They can be found under the "handpainted" category.

It has been a busy few days on our two week stint at The Mall, but here are some photographs of our Madcatwoman Enterprises stand there.
