Meet the Maker
Hi everyone,
It’s 9.44pm on a Saturday night while still trying to get my 8 month old into a deep sleep I thought it’d be a fun idea to start a blog!!! Ok, well maybe it’s not the first time I’ve thought about starting a blog. But it’s the first opportunity I’ve had some quiet time to jot something down for you all to read.
So by now you should know my name is Trish and I the owner/maker of TRISHAMAKES. I’m 29 years old (hitting the big 3-0 next year 😱), I’m a wife to my husband Ian of whom we’ve been dating for nearly 15 years (married nearly 5), and a Mumma to 2 beautiful girls Peighton who’s just turned 3 and Mia who is 8.5 months old.
We live in Capalaba, a suburb South East of Brisbane. Now that we’ve finished having babies (although my husband would still like to try for a boy - no thanks 😂) we are really trying to knuckle down and secure ourselves and our little family a house to call our own!
I started a my real TRISHAMAKES journey in November 2017 after creating an Instagram page, following a few reps and adding a couple hashtags before I made my first sale within a few days!! I was absolutely over the moon as I had my Facebook page for many many years and didn’t sell a thing! My product range was basically bibs, bloomers and peg dolls - as you can see my range has increased considerably since then!
One sale turned into another which turned into the next, and now here we are! An online store with organic orders and new customers semi regularly.
I’ve worked so hard getting my little biz to where it is today and there’s no way I could of done it without the ladies in my teams and genuinely awesome supportive customers!! So thank you so much ☺️
I’m not entirely sure what I’ll be sharing with you all in these blogs - but I do know that since showing my face in my Instagram stories and sharing more about my personal experiences I’ve been able to connect and engage with so many of you - I want to continue and expand on it.
So thanks so so much for reading my first blog post. I hope you have a little browse of my store and always let me know your feedback (constructive style of course!) so I can continue to grow and develop into a trusted brand you all love.
Have a wonderful evening!
Trish x
