and we're back!

It's kind of hard to believe isn't it, that we just shut the country down for six weeks?!  It's been surreal, and now happily, it's nearly over.  We have been flat out at the store for the past couple of weeks getting all your lovely orders sent out, and have spent this week getting ready for re-opening.  

Happily that will be at 10am tomorrow!  We have decided to shorten our opening hours for the next couple of weeks while we're working under Level 2, as we are not sure how confident our customers will be in the community.  So, we're opening at 10am and closing at 4pm Monday-Sunday.

Read on to check out a beautiful new release by Glasshouse Fragrances, some stunning new silk bedroom accessories and to see what protocols we've introduced in-store for your health concerns.

As luck would have it, our divine Glasshouse Fragrances Limited Edition collection intended for Mother's Day arrived only a few days before, and many of you missed out on this.  I dropped enough hints to the right people in my bubble, and happily unwrapped one of these beauties on Sunday.  It's my new favourite - and the frosted glass vessel is definitely a keeper!

This collection also has includes a diffuser, smaller candle, hand cream and gift pack - all of which feature this beautiful artwork - with heavenly fragrances!  None of these pieces mention Mother's Day, so they will make a stunning gift at any time of the year.  See the full range here.

As you'd expect, we're following all the Worksafe guidelines.  We are limiting the number of customers in store to 3 at a time, taking the details of everyone who enters, and are fastidiously cleaning every surface on an hourly basis.  We also have carry baskets for your selections, rubber gloves for you to wear and plenty of hand sanitiser.  I cover off our full range of protocols in more detail in our current Instagram stories.  Give us a follow: @cravehome on Facebook and Instagram.

We've long been fans of silk pillowcases and are thrilled to welcome Silk Magnolia to our store.  We're stocking their beautifully boxed pillowslips and eye masks.  These are a luxury item, but oh so good for your hair and complexion.  It might pay to drop a few hints if you've got a birthday coming up!

I'd like to say huge thanks to everyone who has supported us over the past few weeks with an online order.  We worked really hard to get everything processed and out the door as soon as we could, and still the orders kept coming!  I cannot thank you enough for keeping us going - the past six weeks have not been without their challenges, but a flurry of orders provided hope that better days were ahead. 

I hope you and your families have survived this extraordinary time in our lives, and that we as a country, keep doing the right thing.  Take care,
