Red Pear

We've got some amazingly talented women in Boonah.  First Pollen, then Hippy Wild Child, and now we'd like to introduce 'Red Pear', the beautiful work of local super woman/mum, Amanda Willman.

Cozy Corners

It's amazing how many people have been coming into The Story Tree lately and were so surprised and amazed at our ultra cozy back area, so we've decided to take a few snaps for those of you who haven't had the pleasure.

From an emplyees perspective the 'back' of the shop is by far my favourite place.  The customers out there are always smiling, and the children are almost always happy to fend for themselves in our childrens area - which i'm sure is the reason for the majority of the smiles from our mums!

Some of our customers remember and were frequently visiting the shop while the back was being created.  It's amazing looking at the before and after pictures and even more so looking at where it has come since being opened up.

We run storytelling out there every Wednesday morning and have a bookclub once a month.  At the moment there's an Aromatherapy workshop running every Thursday and we've also had a few children's birthday parties!
