Hello Mystical Cat followers its Friday and for some the last day of their working week 🤗 not here at The Mystical Cat, we will be in all weekend 10am to 4pm ish at Harts Barn Craft Centre

We are now approaching the end of January and Imbolc which is celebrated on the 1st February (more on that one on Sunday). We cant believe how quick this month has gone 😱

Today, 30th January and is
National Fun at Work Day 😜 This occurs annually on the last Friday in January and is a moment designed to boost morale, foster happiness and encourage team-building in the workplace (for those that have teams!)

Pop down and see us here at Harts Barn Craft Centre and make our day a little fun 😁 as well as supporting the small local businesses that we have here onsite.

A reminder that we are only open tomorrow, Sunday and next Tuesday morning before jetting off to much much colder climes for the rest of the week, so if you need anything specific from us pop down over the next few days.

And on that note Happy National Fun Day 🤡

NB if you type "fun" in your emoji search bar a coffin ⚰️ pops up....whatever floats your boat 🚢 for fun 🫣

Good morning, its Thursday and at Harts Barn Craft Centre it's back to a bit more gloomy weather ☁️ after yesterday's blue sky although no rain ☔️ forecast until this evening when we'll be back home 🏘

Yesterday we had another little delivery of stock, which we've pictured on this post. Genuinely a few things a little off the wall just because 🤷‍♀️ rather than what we needed 🤦‍♀️🦆.

One such item is the Mexican Finger Pull 👉. When we looked up the history of it, we discovered that it does actually fit in with upcoming Valentine's Day.

If you're interested they are very similar to Chinese finger traps, these traditional finger pulls are known in Mexico as "atrapa-novios" or boyfriend catchers. Supposedly, girls would trick boys into putting their fingers inside, trapping them into becoming their boyfriend. And no we won't be held responsible if you get trapped! Thet are made from natural woven straw, these clever little things take a little while to get your head round and only retail at 50p each. We only have 4 though (honestly we think we actually ordered them for curiosity 🤔 and also that we needed to make the minimum spend value with the supplier 🫣) but a little bit of fun not just for Valentine's Day ❤️.

We are open all day today, tomorrow and both Saturday and Sunday 10am to 4pm ish. As a reminder next week we will ONLY be open on Tuesday morning as we are heading for the freezing 🥶 temperatures abroad for a few days. If you need anything please pop by and see us at The Mystical Cat at Harts Barn Craft Centre 🫶

Good morning, it's Wednesday 28th January and what a lovely day!!

We've been asked several times this morning if it's cold enough but we think it’s a lot warmer today....AND as mentioned previously we will be away for most of next week visiting a country that is currently -14 and yes, we did say minus 14 but it's not the coldest country we've ever visited, -40 is the lowest temperature we've been to where we experienced frozen rain (it's honestly not hail) as well as several feet of snow!!

The Mystical Cat though is still currently on blighty and we're open and raring to go 😁 here at Harts Barn Craft Centre.

Another parcel has been delivered this morning, which will almost certainly be the last 🤔 (or maybe not ) until we return from the frozen tundra in a couple of weeks.

As promised though we're sharing pictures of yesterday's little box of goodies. One of the items has been specifically ordered for a customer, a service we offer to everyone who is after an extra special item but something we don't typically have in stock. For the avoidance of doubt though, we will order anything in that fits in with the ilk of The Mystical Cat...yes, we have been asked for some very random things before including houses 🏘 , cars 🚗 and life partners 💏 🤐- these we don't do although we could recommend a crystal to help you manifest your dream!!

On that note have a fabulous day, pop down and see us today at Harts Barn Craft Centre next door to the Old Dairy Tearoom on the main terrace - we're open until around 4pm ish. Or if you're after something specific pop us a DM or pist in the comments below.

Namaste 🙏

Answers will be shared tomorrow 🤐

Have a great day whatever you are doing, The Mystical Cat will be open until 4pm ish here at Harts Barn Craft Centre. Pop and by and see us 😊

Good morning, its Tuesday amd a quick reminder The Mystical Cat will be open today, just a little later than normal.

All being good should be open around 11am 🤞

GOOD MORNING!!

It's Sunday 25th January and what a gorgeous day to start. There is definitely blue sky with a few puffy clouds, and although there is still a nip in the air, it's still feeling like its going to be a lovely day 😀

Yesterday we took delivery from a local business who make lots of their own crafts and over time have run as well as attended lots of local markets. They've decided to focus on their own makes which you can find on their website www.shambhaladesigns.co.uk 🥰 so we have bought some of their market stock to sell in The Mystical Cat, and some is stock we have never had although knew we could get.

Yesterday we spent much time between all our lovely customers, pricing up, taking photos and starting to put on sale the stock we have bought.

This includes new flavours of satya incense, assortes smudge sticks, Palo Santo wood, charcoal, amazing abalone shells, ashcatchers, pendulum and bracelets. We think everything pictured and shared here is now on sale except the only bits to squeeze in are the smudging apparel which will require a little juggling, but we should get their by the end of our day today 🤞 We are open until around 4pm.

We are closed tomorrow as normal but will be back on Tuesday at a slightly later opening time due to an appointment. We also want to give you advance notice that Tuesday 3rd February we will only be open for the morning before the being closed for the remainder of that week. We'll post more on this next week but wanted to give advance notice in case you need anything before then.

Right we are off to inhale our coffee and get the remaining new stock out. Pop by and see at Harts Barn Craft Centre today.

Good morning, its Saturday 24th January amd an overcast day so far!

We stayed open a bit later last night as we had a delivery arrive after normal opening hours, which we're very excited to share with you. It does make us laugh!!

We have shared pictures that we've taken as well as those from the suppliers website as they show the inside of the sealed products we have 😂

We know that these new lines will make fantastic gifts, perhaps for the person who has everything 🤔

Anyway they're about to get priced and put on sale....hurry down to see us at The Mystical Cat on the Harts Barn Craft Centre site just outside Longhope. We'll be here until 4pm ish.

Whatever you're doing today, have a great day 🙏

Its FRIDAY!! And yes its raining 🌧.....again!! But allegedly this afternoon will be dry🤞.

In the Mayan sacred calendar, which incidentally is just 260 days long and is still used by indigenous Maya spiritual guides (Aj Q'ijab) for divination and ceremony, it is Imox. This is a power in human personality which refers to the power of imagination in its highest sense.

Imox represents the primordial ocean, water in all its forms (rivers, lakes, rain), and the collective unconscious. It is also associated with the crocodile or water serpent. In that regards it is often seen as a day to connect with water, to offer gratitude for natural resources, and, in some traditions, to guard against mental instability by focusing on balance.

It is considered a feminine sign, representing creativity, deep intuition, and the ability to manifest dreams and a time to celebrate the spirit of the times, to understand the collective mind; a day to dream your creations, your art, your music. Imox helps us all feel connected, when the psychic field between us may be particularly strong.

So why we might be upset with the rain, today is day to celebrate this natural resource that we have.

Today, is the day to set the intention "I am initiating a new dream" 🙏

Pop down and see us here at The Mystical Cat at Harts Barn Craft Centre 😊 we are open until 4pm ish

Good morning, its Thursday 22nd January and another slightly soggy day as we begin our descent to the weekend!!

When we post each day, we try to share information or news that will make you smile or learn something new.

Today at The Mystical Cat we have no new stock in to share with you, and January being a month where most will be yearning for the warm weather to come, so with our Old Dairy Tearoom coffee in hand, we have trawled Google to share global celebration days on this the 22nd January. With that in mind some of the favourite celebration says today include:

National Hot Sauce Day - It's believed that Christopher Columbus may be one of the first explorers from Europe to taste chiles. He names them “peppers” because of their spicy flavor that is similar to the black peppercorns he was looking for. Did you know you can get an array of hot sauces from The Forest Larder which is made in Harts Barn Cookery School here onsite?

Today is also National Answer Your Cats Questions Day. Apparently every year, your cat grants you the power to understand and speak its language, giving you a great opportunity to communicate with them and answer their questions. We think it’s some kind of magic, but we’re not the ones asking the questions–our cat is!! Given we have felines in our names, and those that have visited know that we do have just a few cats at home, this is one which feels right for us!!

The other day we'll mention here in detail is National Celebration of Life Day. This is all about looking at the busy lifestyles that parents, grandparents, and any other adult who looks after someone might have today; recognising that it’s hard to spend quality time together with the young people in your life.

Other honourable mentions for celebratory days today include: Clashing Clothes Day, Polka Dot Day, Blond Brownie Day, Come in From the Cold Day and Farmhouse Breakfast Week!!

Whilst some of these are not UK specific, perhaps we should make them part of our culture!!

On that note we are to find Polka Dot and clashy clothes, and get ready for questions from the cat when we get home later!! Pop by and see us at Harts Barn Craft Centre, we're here until around 4pm 🙌

Whatever you're doing have a great day 😀

Good morning, its a rainy start to this Wednesday 21st January. We have a bit of a "split shift" today - we are currently open and the have a meeting in the Old Dairy Tearoom next door starting around 11am (yes it involves coffee and possibly breakfast 😋) and then we'll reopen again properly afterwards. If you arrive and are ABSOLUTELY desperate to get in The Mystical Cat as you kbow what you want, then you can come and disturb us next door. A sign will also be on our door.

In the meantime as promised, our delivery yesterday yielded some new stock as well as some good sellers, that we've not had for a while. We've also found a new supplier of some very unusual stock which will arriving soon so watch this space for that one!!

Whilst its a bit soggy, we are always happy to see people here at Harts Barn Craft Centre. We'll be open -temporarily closed - open - then proper closing around 4pm this afternoon. Have a wonderful day 😊
