  Years in business: almost 1 with little jay designs. 1^st Birthday is early December.


Children: None yet though sometimes I feel like my fella is a three year old.

Other occupation? Graphic Designer and Teacher.

Your reason behind having a small business? It all started as a creative outlet when graphic design jobs were hard to find in the area. I started making things for myself and then for friends, then their friends and it grew and grew to where it is at today.


Best thing about having a small business? Meeting other talented and creative people. Always having something to do and never being bored.

Hardest thing about having a small business? Finding a spare minute to do nothing. Working from home makes it hard to have a break. You can’t exactly go home to get away.

Your biggest challenge with your business? Keeping up with orders. When I am sick, the business crashes to a halt as it is just me. I often need two of me.

One thing people might not know about you? That I am a graphic designer and a teacher in my normal life. Some people think I do little jay 24/7. It is 4^th on the list after my day job, study and family.


Aspirations for the future? That everyone’s ears are one day friends with little jay earrings

Years in business: almost 1 with Little Me (1.5 years with Baby Mumma)

Children: Connor - 3 years old and Noah - 1 year old

Other occupation? Teacher

Your reason behind having a small business? I also have another small business (Baby Mumma) and over talks with a friend who also had a small business we talked about how there was no 'Boutique' type market in the area, no outlet other then only for other work at home mums and small businesses to sell their goods in the area apart from the Rotary Market and second hand baby markets. Then the idea of Little Me was born, I researched and contacted the council, did lots of paperwork and lots of planning! I aimed to start with approximately 20 stalls and had an overwhelming response!

Best thing about having a small business? meeting new friends and supporting other businesses

Hardest thing about having a small business? Finances, Marketing, overcoming negativity and the weather!

Your biggest challenge with your business? Marketing - getting the word out there to EVERYONE about the market without spending thousands of dollars!

One thing people might not know about you? most people don't know I'm a teacher and that I'm majorly disorganised!

Aspirations for the future? that everyone on the Border and surrounds knows about Little Me! 

Christmas market!
