“Plus, I’ve learnt so many great skills as a result which has allowed me to create my own ‘Save the Date’ and place name cards, which has saved us hundreds!” How did your side hustle begin? Shortly after Christmas, two years ago, I was suffering from the January blues. It was during the pandemic so there was very little to do, and I found myself getting obsessed with baths. I was using a lot of bath products, and, after a quick Google, I realised that I could make some myself or at least give it a good go. After all, we were in lockdown, and I needed a weekend activity.

How did you go about setting the business up? After just a few months, I had taken over a bedroom in our house, installed shelving units and organised a packing and production space. This was perfect to begin with, as we didn't expect to get busy quickly, but once we started getting a higher volume of orders, space was a problem. We then spent around £4,000 creating a space in the garage which was purpose-built for our needs.

December and January were quieter than we’d have hoped, as a lot of small businesses found, but February was a great month for us. We were up 12% on revenue compared to last year, and it certainly feels like the hard work is paying off.
