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.
