Still lives in ..... Ceramics

Finally choices are made!!

Hi all,

I was out of the social media for a little while - busy in the workshop with costum orders.
The courses have started (3 evenings in the week) next to the shop....pfffff.
But feeling kind of happy.....

And finally we made some choices about our online shop.

After a great update from Strato we have chosen this to be our webshop master!!
We have tried Luondo and we loved it so we wanted to quit with Straot but after the big update and
some other issues....we stay where we started.
It is better for our international bussines because strato offers more easy going options for overseas costumers and after there update it is easier to work with.....so we are happy on this part.

But now....
We had to delete all our pages, catagories, products to start with a clean start....painfully but we did.
Ohhhhhhh men all of those precious hours we have spend on it.....again pfffffff.

But a clean and crisp start is there with a lovely search bar that is working correct <3

So i'm of to fill up the shop with lots of spanking new goodies!! :)

Today unloading a kiln with all kinds of lilac, purple & mauve ceramics.
I'm a green lover but i think purple is a lovely mysterious color between red and blue.
When you search at Pinterest for purple i love the pictures that are shown as this one...
