We also use comPOST Packs by The Better Packaging Co.
       as well as their comPOLY bags which are made from corn
       starch and can be composted in the home.

       In my original villa, I had an office to work from, but in
       my new one I don’t, so I pretty much go to all different
       cafes around Canggu and work out of them. Sometimes it’s
       tricky as the WI-FI may not be fast, or the cafe is too noisy,
       or I simply bump into too many people I know and get
       distracted. I have my faves where I can pop my earphones
       in, grab some yummy food and coffee and then get
       motivated to work the day away. There are some great
       co-working spaces available in Bali which I occasionally
       use.

       Last, but not least, I want to give some love to my
       amazing team I have working with me now. Now that Salty
       has grown, I have hired my best friend Jess to be my PA.
       She has been a massive help in my business as it has al-
       lowed me to focus on the creative side of the business. She
       does all of my posting and helps with the emails/DM’s as
       well as random jobs that frees up so much of my time. This
       also has allowed her return to the workforce after having
       two babies. She works from home so it’s a win-win for
       everyone.


       Everything you buy is handmade by my amazing and
       talented maker Epol. He makes the patterns, cuts the
       fabric, makes the pieces and his wife packs the pieces. Epol
       also works from the front of his house so he gets to spend
       a lot of time with his family. All of the orders last year has
       helped us move Epol and his family into a place 3 times
       bigger than his original, which would not have been
       possible without my amazing customers, so I thank them
       for this.


       We have just released our latest collection, which has
       some gorgeous matching mummy and mini pieces. Some
       pieces sold out on launch day, although we are hoping to
       have them restocked in the next few weeks. Thank you for
       reading my story, I hope you enjoyed my small business
       journey.
       Can’t wait to see your babes in Salty.
