Where have they gone exactly? Somewhere that’s for sure! I can’t believe we’re basically 4 months in to 2011 already.

So what have I been up to? Working my arse off let me tell you!

I’ve recently finalised artwork for the second drop which went into production yesterday so you can expect a mid–late Spring date.

The third drop will be making an appearance in the Summer months – this has also been a long time coming. Those that are aware know what I’ve been through this past year. Things still haven’t been resolved but what can I do but move forward! I can’t penalise my customers because of uncooperative suppliers.

The fourth drop is also in development and will land in the Autumn/Winter months!

I’ve also got a few little goodies in production too. It’s all going on!

On top of all the above I’m working on new marketing tactics and cosmetic changes to the website/blog to make content easier to share on social networks. I may even do a couple of print adverts.

I’m also in the process of increasing the brand presence across the web by joining other social network related sites, design collectives etc and posting content.

I held a small sort-of-contest on my facebook page a while back. I wanted to know why you stay up late and the 5 best responses received a free bottle opener – everyone was really pleased with what they got. I will do a separate post expanding on this further and detail the plans for the next one!

Should be an interesting year for VIHMIRU!

Stay tuned.
