What's ahead for koolaman designs 2013

The team at the koolaman designs hub thought it fitting to provide you with an overview of what lay ahead in 2013 and also a snapshot of the summer 2012/13.   Hopefully you enjoyed the festive season and summer break as much as we did.

As usual, we overindulged through the festive season, but surely we are not the lone rangers. Having Christmas and our Mum's 60th birthday all in the one week meant a license to eat, celebrate and socialise to a maximum.

Spending quality time with the children was also on the agenda. Road trips, catching up with cousins, camping, fishing and skiing on the beautiful Murray River, with a shopping/sightseeing trip to Melbourne, and spending time at Koolaman Station provided much needed bonding time.  Needless to say though, bonding time can take its toll and it's lovely to be back at the studio and into routine of school, pre-school and after school activities.

This year is already off to a quick start and as the end of February looms, we thought it was timely to give you a koolaman designs update before it is too late. 

So what will 2013 bring for koolaman designs and all our loyal and new customers?  Some New Year resolutions were made, but only time will tell if we follow them through.  New resolutions for koolaman designs sometimes get lost in the mix of children, being a wife and having a social life.

We will be out and about as much as possible throughout Australia showing off our hand-stamped jewellery collections.  This will provide opportunities for people to experience koolaman designs in real life.   

We're returning to New Zealand for the third time to the Culverden ChristmasCountry Fete.  Our national koolaman designs pop up shop tour kicks off in March.  Click the find us link for details.

On the jewellery front, exciting times lie ahead.  We will be introducing some new pieces to our silver, gold and hide collections. Be sure to keep an eye on our online store and Facebook for the launch of new products.  Perhaps you could even be one of the first customers to own some of our new pieces.

The hide collection exploded onto the market last year and we suspect these funky pieces will be popular this year.  We are continually working on new ideas and variations to the hide collection, so don't be surprised when new pieces hit our online store this year.

Well, enough of the overview, time to hop off the computer and put words into action.  Enjoy 2013 and don't forget for all things koolaman designs remember to visit Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, our Blog and online store.
