KEEPING MOVING

So March is half done and we've had a flurry of new products and plans here at L&F.  We’ve shown you Napkins, Tablecloths, Tea Light Holders, Candles and delicious new scents and we have more to come – if you stand still around here at the moment, you’re likely to be co-opted onto what I gather people now call a ‘focus group’ for your opinions to be mined.  Which is your favourite?  Why?  Where would you put this?  How many should there be in a bundle?  We have so many prototypes of all our products that we will never again have to buy ourselves a tea towel, range top pad, mug, jug or smelly candle.  It’s a first world problem and nobody need think I’m grumbling: I call it a perk of the job, and content myself with lovely things all around.  Innovation and re-invention are key in commerce, as in life, and stasis isn’t good for anyone/thing.  Keeping moving is the name of the game, and always forward – while of course allowing time to consolidate, and bed-in new ideas.  It’s a fine line to tread and wobbles are most definitely allowed.  A good thing, really.  Help is essential, and on a very minor level we’re asking for yours: what would you love to see on our website?  Products, comments, thoughts – we’re interested in hearing what you have to say and will do our best to reflect at least some of your ideas.  Especially if they’re cake recipes – just saying.
