Our first Facebook giveaway was successful! We almost reached the number we were hoping for, 92 out of 100 and we decided to run it a bit early. How did we do it? With the help of a computer, sheesh.

So, we’re in our new home, digital home, I mean. We haven’t physically moved, we still live on Happy. For those who know us, we started as My Busy Board. The name was too constricting, which, no one likes constriction. So, we changed names, built a new site, designed some new products, and last but not least, created a new agenda. Please read about it on the Mantra page. We’ve given it a lot of thought! We look forward to making a great collection of products that everyone can enjoy.
