Welcome to the inaugural edition of SKULL
LADY blog. Let me start by introducing myself and telling you a bit about this
blog.
My name is Carolyn. I own a skull themed
store called Skull Emporium. The physical store is situated at Shop 3/ 1 Lae
Street, Beenleigh, Queensland, Australia and there is a website, www.skullemporium.com.au and I have
a Facebook page and a Facebook community.
The shop and everything linked to it is
based on a love of skulls. And, boy, do I have that! I don’t know about you,
but my house is full of skulls. Sugar skulls, gothic skulls, funny skulls,
precious skulls….do you see a theme running here???
I love skulls so much I decided to set up a
Facebook store and had very positive feedback on that. So then the next step
was going to weekend markets to sell my wares and after a few months, it was
time to look for a permanent shop for the store.
After a bit of searching, I found just the
right location and, as they say, history was made. It took a lot of effort to
get the shop ready and running and I couldn’t have done it alone. My adorable
husband, daughter and her partner have all jumped on board to help me with this
huge endeavour. Believe me when I say there is so much more behind the scenes
to running a store than anyone would realize.
So now the store is going along nicely.
More and more people are getting to know us and there has only been positive
feedback from everyone. It really is amazing how diverse our clientele is.
There truly is no age, gender or background limit. Everyone knows someone who
likes skulls. And we are hoping to meet them all. Lol.
The purpose of this blog is to share
thoughts, ideas, articles and information…all about skulls, naturally!! I will also keep you up-to-date on things
that are happening in the shop, any events or weekend markets we are attending,
when we have contests or photo shoots we have on. Just about everything really.
We have a handsome resident skeleton that
goes by the name of Mr Bone Jangles. The tale of who he is and his adventures
can be found on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/skullemporium/?ref=bookmarks.
And also in his own blog on the website.
Check it out. It is very exciting!!
So that is the basic housekeeping for this
blog. I hope I have intrigued all of you and I look forward to exploring this
skulltastic road together….
