Have you heard the news that we're about to change the Cush & Nooks online shop into a Bibby + Brady shop? If not, you can read all about it here. As we prepare to add our new stock, I'm clearing the way by having a wee SALE. Any items that won't be re-stocked have been slashed in price. Most of these products have only one left in stock, so if there's anything you want, get in quick!
Your fridge is the perfect canvas for your kids' artwork, postcards from friends, and photos of your loved ones. You often have a medley of magnets holding everything up, but what if your magnets were your favourite photos!... MagnaPix is a New Zealand based business that will turn your digital images into glossy fridge magnets. The magnets are 68mm square and come in a pack of eight.
I recently tried out the process to see how easy it was to create my own magnets, and was pleasantly surprised at how simple it was. Once I had chosen the eight photos I wanted to use I just had to select them and upload.
Once the image has been uploaded you can enlarge or reduce it by clicking on the plus or minus icons, and move it around until you're happy with the position. I chose some pics of my beautiful girls, and doubled up on a few to give to my Mum.
When you've uploaded all eight images and are happy with how they're looking, you're ready to complete your order. Easy peasy!
Within days the little package was delivered to my door.
I used my craft knife to run around each edge and they popped out ready to display.
I'm thrilled with the result, and will definitely use them again. My Mum loved hers too, so they're a great gift idea; and would also be excellent for corporate use - a photo of your product with your logo and/or website, and you have magnets for marketing.
The lovely team at MagnaPix have offered a whopping 30% discount for all Cush & Nooks readers. Enter the code mag30off at the checkout and enjoy the savings on your very own personalised magnets.

To all you beautiful people who are reading this blog post, I truly appreciate you. It's funny, I sit at my desk (often at a crazy hour) and create something that I am immensely passionate about. Sometimes I just feel like it's me and my keyboard, then I run into someone who tells me that they follow my blog every day, and love what I do, and I realise you are out there. The fact that I get to make a living out of something that I find so fulfilling is magical, but to hear that it inspires others is most definitely the icing on the cake.
A handful of you leave comments, which I love. But otherwise it's only when I run into Cush & Nooks readers in the real world that I hear what you really think of the blog. Your feedback is golden to me, so I have put together a short survey, and I would be so appreciative if you would take the time to fill it out. I have lots of ideas, but your feedback will help me to know which direction to take the blog in this year. By filling in these 10 simple questions you'll also go into the draw to win a gorgeous green ikat kantha quilt worth $150 - use it as a bedspread for a single or king single bed; a throw for a larger bed or sofa; or even a table cloth.
You have between now and next Wednesday 22 January 2014, 5pm, to take the survey. I will be selecting the winner from those surveys that I find the most helpful, so make sure your answers are good and constructive :) Click here to take the survey, and you will automatically enter the draw. The winner will be announced on my Facebook page Friday 24 January, and contacted by email. Thank you!
