Guest blog meet the lovely #SBS winner @MarshmellowUK #HugsForNoah

Look what the postman delivered this morning ! Thank you Gavin & Jackie we really couldn't wait to open these, Noah straightaway picked up the chocolate marshmellows "mummy open open" these had a very light dusting of coco on them & they're absolutely delicious ! 

Fresh smell of Marshmellow as we opened all these lovely parcels. Noah held the coconut piece & smelt it, this is the first time Noah's had Marshmellow, it's really soft & squidgy, like little pieces of fluffy clouds, it's very light in your mouth with bursts of flavour too!

We both loved the Belgium chocolate ! Can you tell Noah did too ! 

Chocolate all over his face bless & then on to the coconut flavour ! Ooooooh this was my favourite, if you love coconut you need to try this this one, it's mouth watering !!! Can't wait for hubby to come home and try blackberry flavour & fresh raspberry too along with nougat.

As I looked away Noah helped himself to another one ! 

Steph Noah's sister really loved the salted caramel "Just like Fudge & really delicious" 

Gavin & Jackie have had the pleasure of meeting Theo Paphitis & are official #SBS winners

Shellybobbins invites Theo Paphitis #SBS winner Lock-Loop to share his fabulous news !!

Just a short note reference the Small business Sunday #SBS that is run by Theo Paphitis I was taking note of what Theo has said over the past years of watching him on TV and my new product lock-Loop need to be out there in the public eyes, as it was all very well to have a great product just sitting on my shelf fro me to admire but wouldn’t earn me any money!!

I had decided to advertise the most cost effective way via social media and on the third week of trying I got Theo to RT my tweet and my world went mad.

This for some reason (I think many other people who have won this recognition for such a businessman) it gave me massive pride and a new belief in myself and my product.

Since then I have got the Lock-Loop on the Halfords web site and is due to go on the shelves at the end of September, I have had very serious discussions and visited a very large German lock manufacture (unfortunately couldn’t agree on terms) am in talks with people in USA, China, SouthAfrica New Zealand and many other countries.

As you can see I have been very busy and in fact to busy to write this Blog for one of my best supporters ©Shellybobbins™ that I have promised her for many a week.

Over 4 years ago I designed a product call the Cool Laptop Stand www.coollaptopstand.co.uk of which I have sold over 60,000 of them but at the start of its life there was no social media and I had to do it all the hard way going to see companies etc. I only said to my wife the other day that I recon we could have sold 60,000 in the first year if Twitter etc had been around then, so come on everybody if you have an idea just try it you never now unless you try.

So my thanks go out to Theo Paphitis, Shelly and all my followers (always looking for more check out my web site www.Lock-Loop.co.uk )

TODAY :- My friend murry from Lock-Loop has just tweeted this !!

AMAZING NEWS !!!!!!

VERY PROUD Theo Paphitis #SBS Winner !!!!

When I went to see Theo Paphitis on the 1st April 2011 at the amazing opening of Boux Avenue I decided to make Mrs P a leather brooch, a brooch is a very personal gift mine are made with leather with large button thats been handstiched & covered. I make everything by hand & couldnt wait to give this special gift to "Mrs P", On the back of my lovely brooches you will find a British Flag this is what im really proud of having, we as a family are very patriotic.

                              "Mrs P Brooch" By ©Shellybobbins™  & worn by the lovely Mrs P xxx

Jason from Giraffe Banners made this teenie British Flags for my lovely brooches, ideal size x

after meeting Theo Paphitis and checking my phone for the only picture I had took of us both, I look to find out is so blurred !!! I really couldnt believe it, I tweeted to ask if I could get a copy of the one we had took ~~ Theo said I'll sort it, confused by this little did I know that a lovely gift was on its way.

I couldnt believe my eyes when this huge box arrived with my name on it !!! WOW how special made shelly cry x  I just hoped Mrs P loved her gift as much I loved mine.

Bowed, Boxed, Tissued ~~ WOW things like this just dont happen to me I felt really special.

                                Gorgeous scented petals & a sample of there beautiful body lotion

The scent really filled the room as soon as took the lid off.

                                      I opened my gift to find the most amazing picture ever !!!

This does remind me of Britain's Next Best Thing With Theo Paphitis from Dragons Den where Libertys of London & Habitat open there doors to some amazing talented people, everyone had to que up & pitch your idea direct to them ! maybe one day with my rag dolls designed & made in cumbria (dream) ~ and about time we had things BRITISH MADE. England has amazing people in it & what a great way to show off local talent by having "Windows Week" x
