We love an international sighting of our products! It's usually our friends and family who send us the spot, and we love how amazed they are to see Rosie Made A Thing on the other side of the world. We really do get everywhere 😁 Here we have Sunshine Plaza in Maroochydore, Australia 🇦🇺, and Waiheke Island, New Zealand 🇳🇿

As you can see, we had a fab time at Progressive Greetings Live last week showcasing our new designs (that may not be appropriate for work 🙈) Our set up team were a health and safety dream (preggers and sandals!), and we will never look at our logo in the same way again! Who says business can't be fun?! #tradeshow #pglive #greetingcards #smallbusiness
