On Sunday 3rd March 2019, Jenny attended the Stafford Spring Bird Show to sell her budgie and parakeet-themed home decor items. On the Jenny K Home stand, you could find budgie and lovebird mugs and cards; varying budgerigar cushion covers in various styles and patterns; budgie pattern scarves; lovebird ties and mounted prints of sketches - both of these products were new to Jenny K Home.
The show opened early doors from 07:30 and finished around 14:00 and during this time, Jenny met many lovely chatty customers who spoke about their birds and other bird exhibitions around the UK. After the event, customers left some great reviews on the Jenny K Home Facebook page:
"I bought some lovely budgie mugs off Jenny today, such good quality and very stylish, can’t wait to use them! 😊"
"It was so lovely to meet you today and see your beautiful work (we're the couple with the Quaker Parrots!). x"
"I bought some beautiful Budgie cushion covers (my wife loves them already 🙂). Some hand sketches & a beautiful mug that I already used to sip my evening tea ☕️ Highly recommended cool stuff from Jenny 👍👍"
Of course, Jenny did have some help on the day from her supportive husband Stephen!
Stafford Spring Bird Show is an annual event that caters for the buying and selling of exhibition birds of many varieties from budgerigars and parrots to pigeons and even a kookaburra this year! Bird accessories are also popular and of course home decor items too. While Jenny sold a number of budgie and parakeet items on the stand that day, she also received a number of requests for artwork of other birds, and this is something that Jenny will be looking into starting with more lovebird designs...
So, if you didn't get a chance to pop along and see handmade Jenny K Home home decor and gift items at the Stafford Spring Bird Show, you can still buy them online via Etsy and Amazon Handmade.
Jenny also takes commissions, so if you have a particular design in mind, simply email jenny@jennykhome.com.
