Something Blue


Something blue?...The VANCHI MESSENGER NAPPYBAG & ACCESSORIES in SAPPHIRE/EBONY of course!

Our new nappy bags are blue!! They are gorgeous and if I were to have a boy, I'd be trading in my black & red one for this blue one.

Using Asia's finest silk brocades, the Messenger Bag blends exotic glamour and practical necessity. Designed with Mum in mind - this bag has a pocket for everything and enough room to cater for more than one! It features multiple interior and external pockets to separate essential baby items.

Included in the bag as separate accessories are the dummy holder, bottle thermos, wetpack and change mat. There is an internal key clip and an external pocket designed to keep your mobile phone and other essential items close at hand.

The VANCHI Messenger bag has everything you could possibly want in a baby bag and more. An essential purchase for any new mum.

Sapphire Blue with Ebony lining

Dimensions: 38L x 31H x 16W cm

Something Borrowed

Something borrowed...the first thing that comes to mind is the products that other VERY generous companies have given me to use as gifts for my customers. I give out a "new customer gift", a "repeat customer gift" and a "MoshiMoshi Addict gift".

Examples of the gifts customers can receive from MoshiMoshi:
  • 2 gorgeous gift cards from A Piece of Art (RRP$9.90)

  • A free set of useful fridge magnets (RRP$6.95) from Real Mums.

  • A pair of earrings from Peridot & a gift voucher (RRP$50.00)

  • Lipstick cases, chopsticks & much much more


  • I don't know how many sales have come about from them but I have heard some fantastic responses from customers like "the magnets are too true & sometimes I find myself wanting to hurl them at my husband instead of placing them neatly on the fridge" and "those earrings were gorgeous Gina & my colouring too" and "I loved those orchid cards...where can I get some?"

    If anyone else wants to give me products to put in with orders, please let me know. They always are well received by my customers.

    Something New

    Something New...well apart from a large array of new gorgeous products we have and some new gorgeous gifts for purchasing with us in April, something new is that I have been thinking about trying again for baby #2 around the end of the financial year. tee hee.

    I have been thinking that I am rather crazy as I run MoshiMoshi, do freelance graphic design work, work part-time for a medical college as a web publisher and look after a 10 month old and a husband (who is NEVER home due to his job) and a house. I'm sure I sleep somewhere in there...maybe?

    Where would a new baby fit in?

    I have been thinking of folding MoshiMoshi at the end of the financial year to make room for a new baby...but then I can't let go as Moshi is my baby. I've made more money this last quarter than ever before but with that comes added work which I love but HOW do you juggle that and 2 babies under 2?

    Oooh...such a hard decision and every day I make up my mind and then the next day I change it. So confusing...

    Something Old

    Something old....hmmm...well, I've been looking back at old posts I made on the Business Mums Network Forum and the hopes and dreams I had for the company and how things have changed. I mean I am still following the general direction I always wanted but in a more realistic one way. I mean, common, I thought I'd be selling to all ends of the earth and juggling a baby (with EASE) and would have enough profit to buy a house on Noosa Sound - oh what a laugh - I could probably afford to rent a house for the night on Noosa Sound and not much else. ha ha. But I am happy with how far I've come...

    I was also 14 weeks pregnant when I first joined the BMN, which now, as my daughter is 10 months, 1 week & 1 day old, seems like a lifetime ago.

    Where did that time go? Life is amazing.
